Based on the cartoon, it is evident that fuel scarcity is associated with the following except
- corruption in public corporation driven oil sector
- the inability of fuel marketers to supply fuel
- corruption in private corporation driven oil sector
-
adequate importation of petrol by licensed marketers
The correct answer is: D
Explanation
The cartoon depicts a conversation in a taxi about fuel scarcity. Here's a breakdown of the dialogue:
1. Passenger: "Yesterday, I bought fuel at N120 per litre, sir."
2. Driver: "That's alright."
3. Passenger: "Why?"
4. Driver: "Government has started the war on corruption."
5. Passenger: "So, why the scarcity, sir?"
6. Driver: "Corruption is fighting back."
From the above, it can be said that while fuel scarcity could result from corruption from both public and private corporations and the inability of marketers to supply fuel, it cannot result from the adequate importation of petrol by licensed marketers.
