The NNPCL’s Group Chief Executive Officer, Mele Kyari, disclosed this during an interview on Channels Television in Abuja on Thursday.

Kyari said, “I don’t see it staying beyond another day or two, maximum. It can actually be on Saturday. We have supplies. The key trouble with the PMS system is supply, but I have supplies.

“There are over 810 million litres of PMS in depots, tanks and fuel stations across the country, so you don’t have the problem of transferring those from marine to land, you already have them on the ground,” he added.

The counsel continued with evidence (election results) from Rivers and Kogi states, presenting certified true copies of INEC election results from six local government areas (LGAs) in Rivers State as evidence.

Again, counsels to the first, second and third respondents objected to the admissibility of the evidence.

However, the court admitted the documents as evidence, while awaiting the arguments of the respondents who are opposed to the admissibility of the documents.

Isiguzoro also urged the president to ensure the railway line from Port Harcourt to Maiduguri works.

Speaking with DAILY POST, Isiguzoro said: “The free market trade and postulations show that Igbos who are majorly traders will benefit from his economic policies.

“What Ndigbos expect at this moment is in the area of transport, he should look at the rail lines that goes from Port Harcourt to Maiduguri.
