By Our Correspondent

The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Limited (NNPCL) on Thursday, broke silence on the  reason for selling fuel price above government officials price and persistent fuel scarcity in some parts of the country.

 There are queues in many parts of the country while many marketers were selling fuel at the rate between  N660 and N700 per litre contrary to the official process of N580 per litre . 

NNPCL, in a statement issued by Olufemi Soneye, Chief Corporate Communications Officer, said the tightness in the supply of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) was as a result of logistics issues.
