Lagos — The Department of Weight and Measures under the Ministry of Trade and Investment has set-up surveillance team to monitor fuel stations that cheat customers.

The agency's head, Mrs. Crescentia Erukpeme, explained that the team was also set up in order to ensure that standards and accurate measurements are strictly adhered to by fuel marketers.
