The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has threatened to embark on strike action over alleged extortion by officials of the Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR), EKO HOT BLOG has gathered.
The Chairman of the Suleja/Abuja Unit, Alhaji Yahaya Ahman Alhassan, made this known while speaking with newsmen in Abuja on Sunday.
Alhassan stated that members of the Unit would not load from Suleja depot in Niger State.
He added that the association seeks an explanation as to DPR’s incessant demand for daily sales activities from filling stations.

“IPMAN has no other alternative other than instructing our members not to load from Suleja depot in Niger State to express our frustrations after all efforts to make DPR officials desist from unethical practices failed.
“These issues have to be resolved before we can commence lifting of products from the depot,” Alhassan said.
EKO HOT BLOG gathered that the strike action will commence on Monday, June 21, 2021.
