In response to the prevailing fuel scarcity gripping the metropolis, authorities in Lagos have issued a stern appeal to fuel stations in possession of fuel reserves to ensure that queues of awaiting vehicles do not impede traffic flow.
The Lagos State Ministry of Transportation, in a press statement , expressed deep concern over the disruption caused by vehicle queues at fuel stations, citing the adverse impact on both individual and corporate economic activities.
While urging fuel station operators to maintain orderliness and prevent their patrons from obstructing traffic, the Ministry has cautioned that stringent measures will be taken against any violations.
With State Law Enforcement officers intensifying surveillance to enforce compliance, the Ministry vows to closely monitor the traffic situation. It urges the public to report any instances of fuel stations disrupting traffic flow through designated hotlines: 09020004000 or 09020009000.
