Motorists in Jigawa State have continued to suffer days of long queues at fuel stations in a bid to buy petrol.
DAILY POST gathered that for over ten days, motorists in Dutse, the state capital and other major cities in the state have been experiencing fuel scarcity, causing hardship for motorists and other road users.
Our Correspondent gathered that only two filling stations have been selling fuel in the state while other stations were shut down including the NNPC mega station in Dutse the state capital.
A source in the state told DAILY POST that commercial drivers have no other option than to join the queues.
“As you see me here I spent over 2 hours in the queue, because if I decide to buy from black market I may not get any profits”
Also a private car owner who identified himself as Munkaila said he joined the long queue to avoid buying adulterated fuel.
He blamed the retail outlets for hoarding petrol to create hardship for the common man.
They called on the Government to look into the situation and provide a solution to the suffering of the people.
