The Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited says petrol scarcity in Lagos and the FCT is as a result of a hitch in the discharge operations of a couple of vessels and it is working to improve the situation.
NNPC said this on Saturday in a statement signed by Olufemi Soneye, the company’s Chief corporate communications officer.
