…Lagos, Port-Harcourt stocks average 125m litres
04 May 2016, Lagos – The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, IPMAN, said, yesterday its members have overcome Forex challenges as they have been granted Forex access to import petroleum products.
This was even as the Major Oil Marketers, MOMAN, also disclosed to have more than 10 days stock at the depots, with about four other vessels not yet discharged, averaging 85million litres of petrol.
Speaking to Vanguard in a telephone interview, National Secretary, IPMAN, Alhaji Hassan Kirmi, said all members should therefore, desist from the act of sharp practices in the prices of PMS to customers.
His words: “So many of our members are bringing in product, which means they have accessed FOREX.
But the complaint is that the FOREX is not forth coming as it were.“There are enough products at almost all the tank farms in Lagos, Port-Harcourt and Warri. Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC had on Friday structured the distribution chain into six geo-political zones that distribute petrol across the country and they are very effective.
