IPMAN suggests govt, illegal refinery operators partnership to solve refining issues

The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has told the Federal Government to stop destroying illegal refineries in the Niger Delta creeks.

The Chairman of IPMAN’s Enugu Depot Community, Chinedu Anyaso, said the infrastructure of the illegal refiners could serve the government more by increasing the refining capacity of the country.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Anyaso who made the suggestion on Tuesday, said while the government’s immediate plan is to get Nigeria’s local refineries working, the operators of the illegal refineries in the creeks should be brought into the national grid.
