Fuel scarcity: Ifeanyi Ubah’s Capital Oil pulls out of strike, commences immediate loading

Ifeanyi Ubah’s Capital Oil has pulled out of the ongoing strike by the fuel tankers and marketers, saying it will not be part of the ploy to inflict pains on Nigerian masses.

In a press statement issued by the company and signed by its Managing Director, Ifeanyi Uba, the company announced that its resolution takes immediate effect.

According to the company, it has the capacity to load over 13 million litres of product by today. This comes to approximately 400 trucks of petroleum products. It said with this gesture, ”it is our belief that once again our citizens will begin to smile, return to normal family and work life.”

The company called on other petroleum marketers to follow suit and save the Nation from an impending economic and social crisis.

It stressed on the importance of sacrifice, especially as Nigeria moves to have a new government, saying, ”This is a period that requires patriotism and service to fatherland. Let’s join hands to help our fellow citizens and save Nigeria. We also call on striking bodies to call off the strike action. Let us work together for the betterment of our people.”
