Bwari council boss appeals to residents on kerosene distribution

The Chairman of Bwari Area Council,Mr Peter Yohanna, has appealed to the residents to be patient while awaiting subsequent distribution of kerosene in the area.Yohanna made the appeal in Bwari recently in an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN), saying the anticipated weekly distribution of kerosene was delayed because, other states had not received the product distributed by the NNPC in conjunction with a private oil company.He said that the earlier promise to always supply 25 litres of kerosene to each household in the area was to alleviate their sufferings.The council chairman explained that the distribution of the product was not a council programme but a Federal Government initiative to give the rural dwellers a better living condition.He noted that the first 44,000 litres of kerosene distributed to the people in August did not go round the entire council area, adding that the plan was to ensure that the wards left out during the first distribution be attended to in subsequent distribution of the product.
