Fuel Scarcity: How To Access DPR's Emergency Numbers

Following the recent scarcity of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) also known as petrol across the country, the Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR) has assured the public that it would sanction depots and stations selling above the recommended price.

The DPR had earlier accused petroleum marketers of hoarding and diversion of petrol, thereby fuelling the scarcity of the commodity across the country.
The task force further noted that some filling stations had being sealed for selling petrol above N145 per litre pump price.

In this light, the agency has released emergency contact numbers to the public to call officers for complaints or observations of stations hoarding fuel or selling above the official pump price.
