#BBB NEWS| Fuel Scarcity To Last For Two More Months - Kachikwu

The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Ibe Kachikwu, on Wednesday said despite the efforts being put in place by the Federal Government, fuel queues might not be completely eliminated until about two months.

He said since he was not a magician, the fuel queues cannot be eliminated with a magic wand.

The minister, however, said he and members of his team were working hard to resolve the fuel crisis.

Kachikwu, who is also the Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, spoke with State House correspondents shortly after he led a joint delegation of the Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria and the Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers to meet with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

He said with the reality on the ground, it was by sheer magic that the country has the amount of products it currently has in the stations.
