The House of Representatives has urged the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) Limited, as the sole importer of petroleum products, to ease off queues at filling stations across the country.
The House, on Wednesday, also urged relevant security agencies to fish out oil marketers and other economic saboteurs that may be responsible for the fuel scarcity in the country.
The resolutions were reached following a motion of urgent public importance by a legislator, Leke Abejide drawing attention to the lingering fuel crisis across the country.
The green chamber mandated the relevant House committees to investigate the matter within 48 hours and deliver a report on the situation, while the regulatory authority is to meet with the leadership of the House.
