THE Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria has criticised private depot owners over the recent increase in the pump price of Premium Motor Spirit, also known as petrol, in some states.
According to reports, some independent marketers are still selling petrol between N180 and N200 per litre in their respective filling stations especially in Lagos and its environs.
As a result, the IPMAN National President, Mr Chinedu Okoronkwo, on Tuesday said that “some of the private depot owners had not reduced their ex-price for PMS.”
“IPMAN is appealing to the government and relevant authorities to engage these depot owners to revert to the old price regime so that there will be some kind of uniformity in the price of petrol.”-The Punch
