IPMAN to Meet Dangote Refinery Over Petrol Pricing and Supply
The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has announced plans to meet with Dangote Refinery to discuss petrol pricing and supply.
This move follows a statement from Devakumar Edwin, Vice President of Dangote Industries Limited, who claimed that local marketers are avoiding Dangote Refinery’s petrol despite its lower prices.
In response, IPMAN’s representative, Maigandi, emphasized that there is no reason for marketers to boycott Dangote Refinery’s petrol if it is being offered at a lower cost.
Maigandi noted that IPMAN received a partnership letter from Dangote Refinery on Wednesday and reviewed it on Thursday.
He clarified that petrol marketers are willing to buy from Dangote Refinery as long as the price is competitive with current rates.
Maigandi said, “In the letter, Dangote Refinery mentioned that its petrol is ready, but the price was not disclosed.
We cannot boycott Dangote Refinery if their petrol is cheaper.
We are prepared to purchase petrol from them under the condition that it is priced no higher than what we are currently paying elsewhere.
We have no issues with Dangote Refinery.”
He also pointed out that the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) sells petrol directly to marketers at an average price of N870 per liter, while the depot price is N990 per liter.
This context underlines the importance of competitive pricing in the ongoing discussions between IPMAN and Dangote Refinery.
It was reported that bandits were seen in Kwara State and abducted six residents from Rukpete Village.
The incident was reported to have occurred on June 8 at about 11 p.m.
Sources revealed that seven people were initially taken, but an elderly man was later released, leaving six victims in captivity.
The rising cases of insecurity in the country remain quite alarming.
The state of the country is affecting many people, as they believe nowhere is safe, including schools where they keep their children.
It has been reported that some parents have started withdrawing their children from schools in Abuja.
It can be noted that rumours of bandits being sighted near a school triggered panic, causing parents to hurriedly remove their children for safety.
While the reports of bandits have not been confirmed, the school has also issued safety measures to ensure the protection of students within the premises.
It has been rumored that bandits have made their way to Lagos, and allegedly they were spotted in Ibeju-Lekki, where some residents became suspicious of them and reported the matter.
A clip of the group of men went viral online, and many people became concerned. Whether true or not, fear has been sparked among Lagosians as they worry that bandits may already be in the state. Even if the reports remain unconfirmed, many believe it is still a possibility worth paying attention to.
