Mr David Adejuwon, Acting Director of Trade in the ministry, who led the team, said the filling stations were under-dispensing fuel to their customers. He said there was need for Nigerians to have value for their money whenever they buy goods and services.

He added that the monitoring exercise, which started in Abuja, would also be carried out in the 36 states. A news agency reports that some of the fuel stations affected were Mobil filling stations on Karu-Jikwoyi road found to be under dispensing diesel and kerosene. The agency also reports that the two A. A. Rano stations in Nyanya and Karu had almost all its pumps sealed off for under dispensing fuel. Others affected were AP filling station at Mopol Junction and NNPC mega station at Nyanya Shopping Centre.

The only one filling station found over dispensing fuel unknowingly was the NNPC mega station in Nyanya.
