Reports from our correspondence in early Monday morning indicate that public transport seems to be scarce as many passengers are observably seeing trekking to their various places of work due to the fuel scarcity.

Chatting with some passengers and motorists, motorcycle and tricycle riders, the frustration of the unpleasant situation was obviously seen as some resulted in cursing the government for not finding solutions to the fuel scarcity.

“I’m tired of these fuel issues. I bought it for N1000 last night. I have to increase the transport fare. Passengers are complaining. And the sad part is, there is a limit to how we can increase the price so as not to go unreasonable.” One of the tricycle riders was lamenting.

“I don’t even know what to say. Iwo Road to Mokola that we used to ride for N250 is now N400 this morning. And because of the stranded people, some are even saying it is N500. I don’t know how we want to calculate our daily transport fare with our meager earnings.” One of the stranded passengers reacts.

“You can see there are not many public buses on the road. It is because there is no fuel for them to work. If they have, the would have helped in reducing the stranded passengers struggling to get any means of transportation to their various places of work.” Parked bus driver.
