The Department of State Services has given Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC), and other stakeholders in the downstream sector 48 hours to end the lingering fuel scarcity across the country.

Addressing journalists at the DSS headquarters in Abuja on Thursday, the spokesperson, Peter Afunanya, said they held a closed door meeting with stakeholders who agreed to end the scarcity.

He said all DSS commands had been placed on red alert and would commence operations to bring defaulters to book.

The management of Air Peace had earlier Thursday announced possible flight delays as a result of scarcity of aviation fuel popularly known as Jet A1.

The airline disclosed this in a statement via its official Instagram handle, adding that the biting scarcity of the fuel could cause flight disruptions.
