Tanker drivers and marketers under NARTO and IPMAN are threatening a nationwide strike due to unpaid N100 billion debts and harassment by government agencies. The PTD branch of NUPENG has already initiated an indefinite strike in Lagos over police harassment. This action is disrupting telecom services in Lagos and Ogun, with diesel supplies to base stations being affected. IPMAN has also threatened to halt fuel distribution if the debt isn't resolved. Experts warn that prolonged strikes could exacerbate fuel scarcity and disrupt essential services nationwide.
