Nigerian Association of Liquefied Petroleum Gas Marketers (NALPGAM) says sellers of Liquefied Petroleum Gas (cooking gas), are exempted from the lockdown in Lagos.
NALPGAM Executive Secretary, Bassey Essien, made this known via a statement on Wednesday.
He said, “The fact that people have to stay indoors for two weeks in the first instance, entails that households must cook and eat for the stay at home order to be effective”, NAN quoted him as saying.
“While the directive listed petroleum products and petrol stations as essential services, the association needed a clarification on the status of gas filling plants and cooking gas retail outlets as cooking is essential to the survival of households.”
