The cartoon depicts a conversation in a taxi about fuel scarcity. Here's a breakdown of the dialogue:

1. Passenger: "Yesterday, I bought fuel at N120 per litre, sir."
2. Driver: "That's alright."
3. Passenger: "Why?"
4. Driver: "Government has started the war on corruption."
5. Passenger: "So, why the scarcity, sir?"
6. Driver: "Corruption is fighting back."

From the above, it can be said that while fuel scarcity could result from corruption from both public and private corporations and the inability of marketers to supply fuel, it cannot result from the adequate importation of petrol by licensed marketers.
