A statement signed by the Force Public Relations officer, ACP Olabisi Kolawole quoted the IGP saying that “apart from the hardship this act is causing to fuel buyers, it has also rendered some innocent and law abiding citizens homeless due to fire outbreak from jerry-can petrol storage.

The IGP, while assuring Nigerians of the Police readiness to fulfill its constitutional mandate, appealed for a more cordial relationship. Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
