The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has debunked the reports of fuel scarcity in Abuja.
However, Alhaji Suleiman Yakubu, IPMAN National Public Relations Officer, in an interview with newsmen on Tuesday said that some fuel station owners were only scared of their properties being attacked or damaged by hoodlums.

According to him, there is no fuel scarcity in the territory.
“The long queues in some parts of Abuja were due to fear of attacks by hoodlums.
