Fuel Scarcity: Enugu NSCDC deploys personnel to filling stations

The Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC), has deployed its employees to filling stations in Enugu State to maintain regulation and order.

This accompanied the fuel shortage that has hit the state as motorists and motorcyclists battle to shop for petrol

The Corps Commandant within the kingdom, Mr Steve Amoga, made this disclosure to newsmen in Enugu on Tuesday.

Amoga said the NSCDC employees were deployed to NNPC Mega Filling Stations and most important marketers’ filling stations inside the kingdom that sell gas on the pump fee of N145 but had to contend with lengthy queues.

“What we've got decided to do is to ensure deployment of our employees to filling stations with long queues in an effort to ensure that the traces maintain flowing.

“Troublemakers are checked from distorting the queues and inflicting hassle for law-abiding residents, who have decided to observe the queues diligently,” he said.
