Fuel Scarcity Looms As Tanker Drivers Suspend Petroleum Products Loading

 Decry Navy harassment, extortion




Adewale Sanyaolu

Except urgent steps are taken, Nigerians may soon witness another round of fuel scarcity as the Petroleum Tankers Drivers (PTD) branch of NUPENG have suspended petroleum products loading across depots in Lagos.

A visit by Daily Sun to major and independents marketers’ depot in Apapa yesterday revealed that all PTD members had complied with the directive of the association.

At Ijora and Sunrise in Apapa, long stretches of tankers dotted the entire length of Dockyard road without drivers in sight to load petroleum products.

Some marketers who spoke to Daily Sun lamented that, should government fail to intervene and resolve the disagreement between PTD members and the Navy, the situation would in the next two days lead to acute shortage of petroleum products.

Money Heist: N100 Naira Note In A Netflix Movie Montage

One of the most interesting movies on Netflix- La Casa de Papel (Money Heist) has the Nigerian One Hundred Naira note in its opening montage. You can clearly see Obafemi Awolowo's N100 face at 00:48- 00:50. The producers must have a reason why they have chosen the Naira for the montage instead for example of the Spanish Pesos. I felt quite proud though seeing the Naira note shown in the montage. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9yzh2cfbrxE
