IPMAN Assures Nigerians Of Availability Of Petroleum Products During Yuletide

The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has assured Nigerians of availability of petroleum products across the country during the yuletide.

IPMAN’s President, Mr Chinedu Okoronkwo, gave the assurance in an interview in Lagos while reacting to resurfacing of fuel queues in some parts of the country.

Okoronkwo, however, appealed to the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) to hasten the payment of billions of Naira to marketers as bridging cost.

He said: “We want to assure Nigerians that we are ready to cooperate with the government to ensure that there is hitch-free supply of petroleum products across the country during this yuletide and beyond.

“IPMAN is calling on the NMDPRA to hasten the payment of bridging debts owed to marketers by the defunct Petroleum Equalisation Fund ( PEF) to enable seamless operations in the industry.”

Okoronkwo noted that the bridging payment was necessary to encourage marketers to transport petrol from the depot to other depots that are experiencing supply shortfall due to distance.

He said the NMDPRA which took over from PEF had assured the marketers of the payments following a series of meetings over the issue.

Recall that, the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Ltd., had also assured Nigerians not to engage in panic buying of petrol ahead of the festive period.

A statement signed by Mr Garba Muhammad, Group General Manager, Public Affairs Division, NNPC, said the available stock has risen from a reserve of 1.7 billion litres to over two billion litres within the last one month.

“Thus, we once again urge Nigerians not to engage in panic buying but to fully enjoy the spirit of the festive season as we continue to work tirelessly to ensure sufficient supply of petrol to every part of the country.

“Once again, the NNPC extends sincere appreciations to all Nigerians for your understanding and support. We wish you all happy celebrations,” he said in the statement.
