Nigerians In More Agony, As Queues Resurrect Over Hike In Pump Price

By Sola Omoniyi, Lagos

Following the hike in the pump price of petrol, Nigerians are undergoing more pains and agony as fuel queues resurfaced across the country.

Congress News had earlier reported that fuel which sold for N537 per litre as of Monday, July 17, had skyrocketed to N617 on Tuesday morning.

However, this caused tension as motorists moved to filling stations across the cities to purchase fuel.

In some fuel station, vehicles were on a long stretch within and outside the facility.

However, the present development had resulted to several filling stations in the city centre where queues had extended to the road, compounding traffic woes.
