From Yakubu Mustapha Minna
Chairman Niger state chapter of Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) Alhaji Adamu Erena has decried detaining of members trucks in Lagos by the Petroleum Tanker Drivers (PTD).
Erena made this known in an interview with newsmen at Pogo depot in Minna, urging for an unconditional release of their vehicles to avoid causing artificial petroleum scarcity.
He explained that IPMAN has continued to pay its dues of N35,000 to PTD constantly but insisted they will not compromise to pay additional N2,000 that belongs to the IPMAN.
The Minna Depot Chairman raised alarm that if the PTD continued to held their trucks, it will surely lead to increase in prices and scarcity of the petroleum product in Minna and environs.
