As nomalcy returns to most petrol stations in the Federal Capital Territory, Abuja, patronage has sunk to an unimaginable level. Even at its former price of N87 per litre, poor sales have become evident.

According to different sources who spoke with CEOAfrica correspondent on this development, it was gathered that the fuel pump price "is bearable unlike before."

''Before now, filling stations sold to the black marketers and it was very scarce then. But now, we are heaving a sigh of relief for our prayers have been answered. It is now being sold at a uniform price,'' a petrol buyer said.

Some of the visited filling stations included Total and NNPC, and they were selling at the regulated price of N87 per litre.
