Fuel Scarcity In Maroua, Even Zoa Zoa Don Expensive



There is an acute fuel scarcity right now in the Far North region. Even the imported fuel from neighboring Nigeria known as Zoa Zoa, has become so scarce and so expensive. A liter of Zoa Zoa which used to cost 450cfa frs, now sells at 800cfa frs. The closure of the border with Northern Nigeria, is the reason for this scarcity. A joint ministerial order reestablishing air, land and sea transport between Nigeria and Cameroon is yet to be implemented.
Another item which has also become scarce is the cotton seed oil, "Diamaor". A bottle which used to cost 1100cfa frs, is now 1500cfa frs. The oil is said to be scarce and costly due to a shortage of plastic bottles
This isnt good at all guys, cos the Christmas period will come with additional price hikes. People go cope so?
