The Dangote Petroleum Refinery has told the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) to register directly with it and stop making payments for its petroleum products to third-party entities.
Earlier, IPMAN had alleged that its members can’t load petrol from the Dangote Refinery in Lagos despite having paid ₦40bn to the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL).
However, the Dangote Refinery in a statement titled IPMAN: Setting the Record Straight by its Group Chief Branding and Communications Officer, Anthony Chiejina, on Thursday clarified that it had not received any payments from IPMAN to purchase refined petroleum products.
