According to a statement signed by the Force Public Relations officer, ACP Olabisi Kolawole,
Arase lamented the havoc the people selling and hoarding fuel in
plastic containers have wrecked in their environs - fire outbreak for
one.
“Apart from the hardship this act is
causing to fuel buyers, it has also rendered some innocent and law
abiding citizens homeless due to fire outbreak from jerry-can petrol
storage," he said.
He stressed that petrol is
highly flammable and if not stored and handled properly, can pose
serious danger to lives, property and the environment.
Arase warned that filling station attendants who sell petrol inside jerry cans will also be arrested and prosecuted.
