Reporter
The Ministry of Trade and Industry of Ethiopia on Friday warned oil companies operating in the country after a week-long fuel shortage took hold in major towns including Dessie and Bahir Dar.
In a letter he wrote on Wednesday, stae minister Ahmed Tusa indicated that over eight major towns are for a week now suffering from shortage of fuels, particularly gas oil, benzene and kerosene, and ordered the oil companies to urgently address the problem.
The oil companies were also cautioned to provide a sustainable fuel supply to these towns where business activities were affected during the last seven days due to the fuel shortage.
The state minister noted in the letter that the incident was not supposed to occur in the first place given that the oil companies have fuel stations in the towns.
The eight town affected by the fuel shortage are Gondar, Woreta, Desssie, Debre Markos, Debre Tabor, Bahir Dar and Seqota.
