Some of the stations on Tuesday observed the strike called by the Nigeria Labour Congress (NLC) and Trade Union Congress (TUC) to redress the maltreatment of the NLC President Joe Ajaero in Imo.

Panic buying also caused long queues as motorists besieged the few stations that opened for sale.

At one of the fuel stations, Mr Emeka Nwabueze, said that he came to get some fuel in his car as the strike might linger beyond normal.

Nwabueze said: “I am taking precautions as situations are hardly predictable today in the country.

“It is good I get this fuel to keep my running around as I cannot afford to be held back due to lack of fuel in my car as I have someone I frequently take to the hospital for medical check-ups.”

Another, Mr Innocent Monday, said that it was better to join in getting the fuel now in this queue before they tell you that it is N800 or N1,000 per litre in black market due to the ongoing nationwide strike.

NLC and TUC had directed all workers within its affiliate unions to join the ongoing nationwide strike on or before 12 midnight of Nov. 14.
