Fuel price not within our purview – PETROAN

President of the Petroleum Products Retail Outlet Owners Association of Nigeria, PETROAN, Billy Gillis-Harry, has said that fuel price is not within their purview.

Speaking during an interview on Arise Television on Monday, Gillis-Harry stated that the association is focused on ensuring petroleum product availability.

According to him, they have not gotten any disappointments from getting products from the Dangote Refinery.

“This is a situation that we really need to interrogate and do the best we can from our end as Retail Outlet Owners.

“We are focused mostly on ensuring that petroleum product availability is top on our agenda, and we are getting that product from Dangote Refinery. So far, we haven’t gotten any disappointment as to getting products from there.

“So the pricing is completely not within our purview, because first, you already can tell that the price of restocking of crude oil that is the feedstock for the refining of refined products is just going up the roof, and that is a major concern.

“But we do believe that we might need to find other ways of how we can try to ensure that Nigerians do not get under the water,” Gillis-Harry said.
