Gas ship waiting to be cleared for fifth day

The ship with 3,500 metric tonnes of gas was anchored for the fifth day yesterday at the harbour due to non-payment of monies.The ship has not been able to unload gas for five days due to a lack of US$ 2.5 million to pay. It has been five days since Litro suspended gas distribution and the public has been asked not to wait near outlets.

However, despite this request, people in many areas across the country were seen waiting in long queues for gas yesterday (12).
