apologized to Nigerians over the fuel crisis rocking the nation and the long
queues experienced by citizens at fuel station.

presidential villa the group executive director NNPC Upstream Bello Rabiu
emphasized that they are doing all to end the crisis.

of petrol are dispersed daily round the country.

the strategies being adopted by the corporation to ensure that citizens no
longer experience fuel scarcity and queues.
Some of the strategies include importing of the

the country, and proper storage of the product at all major depots scattered
round the country.
Bello Rabiu was accompanied by the Group Executive
Director Downstream Henry Orih, Group Executive Director Refineries Anibo Kraga
and Group general Manager Public Affairs Garbadeen Mohammed.
It was also revealed that the country spends between
16 to 20 billion dollars daily to import fuel into the country.
