The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria has directed members to suspend all operations and shut down all filling stations across the country.
In a statement signed on Tuesday by Chairman of the association, Mohammed Kuluwu, the marketers were also ordered to suspend payment of ordering products from source until further notice.
The association said the decision followed, “the critical situation as it affects our sourcing and selling of product at lost and the action of the authority to impose the selling of product at a lost price on our side.”
“You are hereby directed to suspend selling at all filling stations and also suspend the payment of ordering products from source until further notice.”
