Petrol trucks are being diverted from Lagos to West African Countries
Kachikwu disclosed on Monday,
April 25, that in the past one week, about 500 petrol trucks have been sent to
Lagos but only about 250 offloaded their contents.
Kachikwu made this known at a
Lagos Town Hall Meeting organised by the Federal Ministry of Information, where
he also stated that ‘a few Nigerians’ are benefiting at the detriment the
majority of the populace.
He said the petrol tankers are
able to get away with this because the Petroleum Ministry cannot monitor their
activities once they are loaded with fuel.
The Minister however, said his
ministry is working towards curbing this by installing trackers on each trucks
and also by registering the depots and filling stations they are meant to
supply – hence, if they fail to offload the quantity required, there will be a
record of the anomaly.
He further empathised with
Nigerians on the fuel scarcity situation which has lingered for the past few
months, by stating that ‘everything that touches Nigerians touches me’.
“I appreciate your patience. We
didn’t cause it but we are working towards solutions”, the Minister added.

Cameroonian scammer arrested in Montreal (canada
The Sûreté du Québec announced Wednesday the arrest of an alleged fraudster specialist of a scenario called "Black money scam", in which victims are invited to participate in the cleaning of soiled banknotes, then are robbed during the operation. Cyrille Ngogang, 49 years old, was caught red-handed in downtown Montreal Tuesday afternoon. He appeared in court this morning to be charged with fraud and breach of commitment. The man is not in his first trouble with the law: he was previously arrested by the SQ on 19 January for charges related to the same scheme, and had been able to resume its freedom under strict conditions pending his trial. There are several variants of the 'Black money' scenario, but all involve a so-called batch of cash that has been stained with a dye or colouring substance. Scammers ask their victim to provide money to clean the hoard.
