Eedris Abdulkareem, veteran hip hop singer, has knocked the administration of President Muhammadu Buhari over the case of adulterated petrol imported into the country.
Reacting to the return of long queues at the petrol stations across Nigeria brought about by the scarcity of petrol, the singer also called for sanctions to be taken against the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) for bringing hardship to Nigerians by the supply of adulterated petrol across the country.
In explaining the scarcity, the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority on Tuesday confirmed that adulterated petrol is in circulation across the country.
The regulatory authority in a statement released noted that the supplier of the adulterated petrol has been identified and appropriate sanction would apply.
According to the authority, oil marketers have been directed to ensure a sufficient supply of petrol in all outlets in the country.
Abdulkareem which on his Instagram page called out the NNPC and the federal government, tagging them “Yahoo Yahoo government,” wrote: “If we had a president, the entire management of NNPC will face sanctions for the importation of contaminated petrol.
