Petrol shortage rock Chadiza

Petrol shortage has continued to rock Chadiza District when supply of the commodity has normalised in other parts of the country.

The commodity ran out last Wednesday, five days after a 7000 litres of the commodity was offloaded in the District.

A check at SGC filling Station, the only Service Station in the District revealed that only Diesel and Paraffin were being sold.

Workers spoken to at the Filling Station said Diesel was also likely to run out soon as only 2600 litres was in stock.

And when contacted Station Manager Musa Nanda said he had made an order of 7,000 liters of Petrol and Diesel each.

Mr Nanda could, however, not state when the Filling Station would receive the commodity.

He said indications from his superiors were that frantic efforts were being made to source the fuel so that motorists in Chadiza could be serviced.

Some vendors who have taken advantage of the situation are selling a two litre container at K25, 000.
