Fuel scarcity: FRSC advises against buying on roadsides
Fuel scarcity: FRSC advises against buying on roadsides.
The Itori Unit Command of Federal Road Safety Corps (FRSC), Ogun, has warned motorists and other Nigerians to desist from buying fuel on roadsides to prevent damage to vehicles and other property.
The Unit Commander, Mr Shamaki Yerima, gave the warning in an interview on Friday in Ota, Ogun.
Yerima said that the advice had become necessary as fuel purchased from the roadsides might be adulterated.
The commander also cautioned against carrying fuel in vehicles to avoid fire.
“We are appealing to motorists not to engage in panic-buying because of the inherent dangers.
“In addition, the FRSC enjoins them to be careful, patient and refrain from speeding that could lead to road accidents,” he said.
He reiterated the commitment of the FRSC to ensuring road safety.
