Fuel crisis hits Papua New Guinea as the nation’s capital, Port Moresby, starts to see service stations close down and some overwhelmed by motorists desperately trying to fuel up their vehicles.

Some service stations belonging to Mobil, Total and Puma have had to send away vehicle because fuel is down.

Some had only diesel and no petrol.

PNG Haus Bung reports that the diesel could run out by today and tomorrow.

Motorist are finding it tough now and many wants the government to do something about this fuel crisis immediately to address it.
