    Why queues persist at petrol stations – DAPPMA

    18 January 2017, Sweetcrude, Lagos – The Depot and Petroleum Products Marketers Association, DAPPMA, has explained reasons behind the prolonged queues at fuel stations across the country.

    DAPPMA members currently own the largest number of fuel stations in Nigeria.

    In a telephone chat with SweetcrudeReports on Wednesday, Executive Secretary of the association, Mr. Olufemi Adewole, disclosed that DAPPMA still does not have enough products to go round its members, including members of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, IPMAN.

    Adewole said DAPPMA does not expect the queues for petrol to have prolonged up till now, adding that the association already distributed to some of its members, products supplied to them by the NNPC.

    “Presently, we don’t have enough products with us. We already distributed what was given to us. But if they give us more, we will distribute more”, he said.

    He revealed that presently, the Major Oil Marketers Association of Nigeria, MOMAN, had refused to give products to any other filling station other than those of their members.

    MOMAN draws its members from Mobil Oil, Conoil, Forte Oil, Oando and Total Oil.

    Adewole’s claim that MOMAN had stopped giving petrol to others except its members confirms an earlier report that IPMAN now gets products directly from NNPC.

    It was gathered that members of IPMAN had started receiving products directly from NNPC since Monday, January 15.

    Prior to this development, IPMAN members were getting PMS directly from MOMAN, a situation the independent oil dealers kicked against, as they argued that the association had the highest number of filling stations across the country.
