Several youths in Abuja have continued with the hawking of petrol, in the streets despite the stance of government that the police authorities should go tough on anyone doing such.
Following the recent scarcity caused by the importation of adulterated petrol, the Department of Petroleum Resources, DPR, decided to implement the policy in parts of the Abuja areas.
However, findings revealed that many youths are still hawking petrol even in front of filling stations without the caution of knowing the implication of the commodity when inflamed.
From Wuse through the Central Business District to the Garki area of Abuja, youths can be seen hawking petrol unperturbed by fear of government authorities.
