Civil society organisations in Rivers State have given Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL and security agencies a 14-day ultimatum to find a lasting solution to fuel scarcity and reduce its pump price in the state or face full-blown mass action. This was stated by the Chairman of the CSOs, Comrade Enefaa Georgewill, who explained that their initial planned mass action was changed to a warning protest due to the intervention of security agencies, particularly the Department of State Services, which pleaded for two weeks to resolve the crisis.

He said, “What is happening here is a warning protest to the NNPCL to stop suffocating and punishing Rivers people by allowing filling station owners to sell above the government-approved price. Solomon Lenu said, “Nigeria is using N4.3 trillion to subsidise fuel that we don't have, in addition to that, NNPCL said Nigerians are consuming 60 million litres of fuel per day. This is a product that is solely imported into the Country by NNPCL and the President who doubles as Petroleum Minister is saying nothing about it.
