The few Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) retail outlets that were opened sold the product for N617 per litre amid endless queues.

Besides, black marketers sold 10 litres for N850 in plastic containers.

Meanwhile, the NARTO President, Alhaji Yusuf Lawal Othman, who spoke with the Nation on phone confirmed that the enforcement of the suspension of operation has just begun.

He said it will culminate in complete stoppage of the haulage of the product.
