The situation is critically difficult and the best Intentions of government to lower the price of fuel per pump price are undermined and supplanted.
The rumours are encouraging, sweet and rice that the government Intends lowering the pump price of petroleum products from 7000.000 to 4000.00 per litre. Apparently, this has triggered the nefarious act of hoarding the fuel.
Yesterday, only Total on St. Francis Secondary School road was opened to the public but the long queue and aggressive stampede made it practically impossible to secure fuel.
Today, only Malado Filling Station is opened up to this late morning hours.
As I write, a litre goes for 25,000.000 through the Jebu system, a black market trade largely engineered by fuel dealers in the municipality. The suspicion is fuel is pumped into Jerry cans at night to be sold as Jebu day and night times. This is done with reckless impunity and in the glare of the public.
What is happening? Who should take action? Who is failing in duty?
