In order to ease some burden on travellers during the rescheduled elections, the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has directed its members to reduce pump price of petrol from N145 per litre to N140.
A statement by the National President of the association, Elder Chinedu Okworonkwo, was issued through the Chairman, IPMAN Kano state chapter, Alhaji Bashir Dan-Malam.
Okworonkwo said the marketers were expected to comply with the directive from Feb. 20 to Feb. 25.
“IPMAN was prompted to slash N5 from the N145 per litre official Petroleum pump price in a bid to motivate Nigerians to return to vote again on Feb. 23.
“We urge all our members across Nigeria to immediately reduce the fuel pump price from N145 per litre to N140 per litre.
“This is because of the political situation that hit the country after INEC suddenly announced the postponement of presidential and National Assembly elections after Nigerians were fully prepared.
He said, “This made us deem it fit to reduce the pump price in order to ease their suffering, and to also motivate them to travel again to exercise their franchise on Feb. 23.”
He also urged their members to ensure strict compliance with the directive.

Still on the spirit of alleviating the plight of the poor Nigerians, Reno Omokri former spokesman to GoodLuck Jonathan has promised to provide transportation in four zones of the country to help people travel for the election again. This is highly commendable and I wish others who can as well should key into this initiative. God bless Reno Omokri richly for that kind gesture shown.
ReplyDeleteAll na wash. Will it reduce the transportation fare? Propaganda by APC but God pass them, Nigerians don wise up. Our mumu don do @Blessed Princess

DeleteWell-done Ipman!...
ReplyDeleteNonsense and ingredrient. #5 decrease cannot reduce the cost of transportation.
ReplyDeleteWhat were they thinking initially?
ReplyDeleteThey tried for private car owners because I know public transport companies will not reduce a dime from the usual fare.
ReplyDeleteHonestly they wnt reduce a dime
DeleteSomeone prophesied about this.......đŸ¤”đŸ¤”đŸ¤”đŸ¤”
ReplyDeleteTrue oh, i read it too.
DeleteAll for the election. We are wiser now. If them like reduce it to 100 we no want you again.
ReplyDeleteOnly 5naira reduction? This regime is truly stingy,instead of them to reduce pump price to 120naira. So that we can vote for them.
ReplyDeleteIt's not 'régime' motivated. Go and read to understand. Plus I'm sure it should take more than a temporary fuel slash to buy your vote since you're determined to sell it.
