The Department of State Services (DSS) has given the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited and oil marketers a 48-hour ultimatum to make Premium Motor Spirit known as petrol available for Nigerians
This was disclosed by DSS Spokesman, Peter Afunanya while briefing journalists at his office in Abuja after over three hours closed-door meeting with stakeholders in the petroleum sector.
He stated that NNPC assured during the meeting that it has sufficient product to serve Nigerians during and after the Yuletide season.
He said the DSS would activate its operations across the country if they failed to comply with the directive.
According to Afunanya, the challenge of fuel scarcity has assumed a dimension that is detrimental to the security of the country.
