The approval was granted during the State Executive Council (EXCO) meeting on Wednesday, presided over by Governor Umo Eno. In a statement on Thursday, Commissioner for Information, Hon. Aniekan Umanah, also announced directives for Sterling Global to halt further land encroachment and creek closures, following complaints from oil-bearing communities. Additionally, the EXCO assigned oversight of the Infrastructure and Asset Management Agency to the Office of the Secretary to the State Government to improve efficiency.

RE: LASG TO REGULATE ACTIVITIES OF MAJOR AND INDEPENDENT PETROLEUM MARKETERS


The Lagos State Government has noticed the reactions generated by its directive to major and independent petroleum marketers operating on major roads. The measure is to stop the traffic congestion that has resulted from their activities; it is not to compound the hardship motorists and commuters have experienced because of the lingering fuel shortage.

Following assurances from some of the offending filling stations, the 9 am to 4 pm restriction will no longer be enforced.

For the avoidance of doubt, filling stations are not restricted from doing their business, but fuel marketers have a responsibility to ensure that their activities do not cause any disruption whatsoever to traffic flow. It is against the law to impede the free flow of traffic on our roads.

Traffic Management Agencies have been directed to invoke the law should any marketer be found to have allowed queues on its premises to spill onto major roads in a disorderly manner that impedes traffic flow.

Signed

Dr. Frederic Oladeinde

Commissioner for Transportation, Lagos State.
