Following the announcement of fuel subsidy removal by President Bola Tinubu in his inaugural speech on Monday, fuel queues have returned to filling stations in Ilorin metropolis and other cities.
Our correspondent who went round the town on Monday evening reports that most filling stations were closed while those selling were selling above approved pump price with long queue of customers.
Earlier in the morning before the news of the removal went round, the filling stations were selling at their different rates, but some closed down while others have increased their prices by evening.
Some of the customers who spoke however said they envisaged scarcity of fuel, hence the panic buying.
