Amid the fuel scarcity going in Nigeria, petrol has now become the new ‘gold’ (though it’s been known as the liquid gold) due to difficulty in getting it.

Nigerians now cherish petrol more than anything. If you want to get through the heart of anyone at this moment, just offer them a free keg of petrol and see them go awwn.

That was the exact case at a Lagos party where kegs of petrol were shared as a souvenir. The photo circulating the media has been generating a lot of comments.

Fuel scarcity across the nation has lasted for more than a month now and there seems to be no end in view.

Skitmakers are also tapping into the current situation to make content.

Also, Nollywood actress Victoria Kolawole lamented about her experience with a ‘fan’ who defrauded her at a filling station after promising to assist her in purchasing fuel.

Kolawole took to her Instagram page on Thursday to express her dissatisfaction with the country’s current fuel shortage.

“I need fuel. I’m frustrated”, she wrote with crying emojis.

Kolawole claimed she had entrusted her money to an “innocent-looking” fan who promised to assist her in purchasing fuel.

However, the said fan neither assisted her in making the purchase nor returned her money.

“So I went to the filling station today, but there was too much queue so I couldn’t get down from the car. Luckily for me, I saw this innocent-looking guy, he came to me and said he’s my fan.

“He promised to help me get the fuel, so I gave him money and my keg, and still gave him extra money. Till now I have not seen the guy or the fuel,” she wrote.

Kolawole’s frustration was shared by several Nigerians across the country who continued to spend hours in long queues to fuel their cars and appliances.
