In addition to the Chairman, several other committee members were also suspended. Governor Oshiomhole warned all petroleum dealers that their land will be confiscated if they refuse to sell fuel at the mandated price.
It will be recalled that on Monday, SaharaReporters published a report on the ongoing fuel scarcity crisis affecting Nigeria. Governor Oshiomhole has also been the target of half nude protests in his State for his poor leadership, according to demonstrators.
