Fuel scarcity which spread to Lagos, the nation’s commercial capital, over the weekend is now biting harder with motorists spending their night at filling stations.
Reports by our correspondent within Ikeja and its environs indicated that most petrol stations are now shut down, claiming they have run out of stock while only a few were dispensing.
In all the few filling stations, our correspondent observed long queues of between 500 meters to almost one kilometer as motorists scrambled to get fuel.
Those affected included both the commercial and private vehicle owners who lamented spending long hours in the queues.
