The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has urged the Federal Government to direct private oil depots across the country to sell petrol to its members at regulated price of N77.66 per litre.
Alhaji Adamu Erena, Chairman of Minna branch of the association in Niger, told newsmen on Tuesday that such step would enable members of the association to sell the product at approved N87 per litre.
“We don’t have the intention of making our people suffer by selling petrol above N87 per litre approved by government; this is because we sell as we buy from the private depots.
“The truth is that NNPC cannot supply us with enough fuel so the private depots are cashing in on that to do what they want.
“When you go to the private depots to purchase PMS you are made to pay N77.66 to the company as approved by government.
