The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) says the management of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has allocated petrol to its members directly to ease scarcity.
The IPMAN National President, Chinedu Okoronkwo, made this known in Lagos on Tuesday.
Okoronkwo said the order was directed after a closed door meeting between the IPMAN executive and NNPCL management.
He said the meeting resolved that IPMAN members should load petrol at NIPCO, MRS, and other loading depots.
Okoronkwo said the NNPCL management had confirmed that the product had been released to the depots for immediate loading by IPMAN members.
He said IPMAN members were encouraged to upgrade their POS to G4 or G5 for payment efficiency.
His words: “Members without POS are also advised to acquire it for efficiency.
“The arrangement was in collaboration with NNPCL Retails Ltd. and IPMAN.

He added that lPMAN would in a few days massively load at NIPCO and MRS depots massively for South-West and North-West parts of the country.
Okoronkwo enjoined members who had made payments to commence loading of petrol from the designated depots.
