Scarcity of Premium motor spirit, also known as petrol bites harder in Oyo town with some filling stations selling between N220 and N240.
Radio Nigeria correspondent reports that many commuters this morning, especially civil servants and school children trekked to their various schools and workplaces.
However, only Bovas filling stations are selling at N180 per litre to long queues of motorcyclists and motorists, obstructing free flow of traffic in the process.
The situation has also led to fifty percent hike in transport fares by Okada riders and intracity bus drivers.
Residents who reacted to the situation urged the government to speak out and explain what is happening in order to disallow people from making wrong insinuations.
The fuel scarcity was first noticed on Sunday this week before it got worsened Wednesday.
