The Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority
(NMDPRA) has assured Nigerians that operations in loading depots have fully resumed following removal of restriction of movements during the recently concluded Presidential and National Assembly elections which necessitated truck drivers to travel to exercise their civic responsibilities.
Consequently, The Authority said in a statement signed by its Chief Executive that it is working with other stakeholders to mitigate the slight tightness being experienced in the distribution of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS).
Most importantly, the statement added, the public should note that the current stock sufficiency stands at 35.39 days for PMS, 34.86 days for AGO and 31.36 days for ATK.
“The Authority continues to strive towards guaranteeing supply and distribution
reliability nationwide and strongly advises against panic buying,” according to the statement.
