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.
Nigerian pastor and overseer of the Citadel Global Community Church, Pastor Tunde Bakare, addresses and reacts to the current happenings of the country regarding the kidnapping and the abductions.
The pastor urges the government on steps they can take to solve and help the people of the country. “The Nigerian government has a clear and urgent duty to protect these Middle Belt communities, who have carried the weight of violence for far too long.”
“Rather than play the ostrich and cover up clear terrorism as mere farmer-herder clashes, the Nigerian state has a responsibility to invade the camps of armed marauders who hide under the cloak of herdsmen of whatever ethnicity, and who invade defenceless communities and gleefully massacre unarmed men, women and children.”
US President Donald Trump criticizes the Nigeria government once again after the increase of insecurity over the past few days. The president stated that the government is failing to protect Christian communities from the attacks going on.
“Nigeria is a disgrace. The whole thing is a disgrace,” Trump said. “They’re killing people by the thousands. It’s a genocide, and I’m really angry about it. And we pay, you know, we give a lot of subsidies to Nigeria. We’re going to end up stopping.”
Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar speaks out against the rising insecurity in the country. He urged the government to take action and claimed that it is not too late to declare a state of emergency.
He reacted after another news of abduction of students was announced on the 21st of November.
“How many more lives must be shattered before decisive action is taken? It is not too late for the government to finally declare a state of emergency on insecurity and confront this menace with the urgency it deserves.”
