High Fuel Costs In Nigeria

How can one of the richest oil producing countries claim to be impacted by higher fuel prices! LOL!

In 1991 I was working for Saudi Aramco, flying out of Dhahran. Like everyone I bought a car and bought gas at the Aramco Camp gas station. It only cost about $0.50 per gallon. And one day the station ran out of gas! All the expats were shouting, "We're sitting on top of the world's largest supply of petroleum, and there's no gas?"
