The House of Representatives is set to investigate and ascertain the quantity of petrol consumed daily in Nigeria.
It is also to verify the state of the nation’s refineries.
This was stated by Speaker Femi Gbajabiamila during plenary on Wednesday.
The Speaker said it is important that the parliament weighs in on the present debate about fuel subsidy withdrawal from a well-informed perspective, which is why two distinct investigations are needed.
