IPMAN Cries Out Over Illegal Consul lants At Depots 

The National Executive Committee (NEC) of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has raised alarm over some persons allegedly parading themselves as consultants to the association.
National President of the IPMAN, Alhaji Debo Ahmed, in a statement, said the people go round the association’s loading depots and highways only to collect money disguising as IPMAN officials.
Ahmed, therefore, urged members and the public to ignore such impostors, warning that no one pays any money to them in whatever guise.
“The attention of the National Executive Committee (NEC) of Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has been drawn to some people parading themselves as Consultants going round our loading depots and highways to harass and intimidate members to pay an illegal levy to them on behalf of IPMAN.
“Kindly ignore them and do not pay any money in whatever guise to them as no authorisation has been issued to this effect.
IPMAN, he said, is not known to be using consultants to harass and intimidate its own members. The association is to protect the interests of members, their businesses and welfare.
“The Consultants are illegal and should be treated as such. Security agencies are hereby placed on alert to avert any crisis that may likely lead to a breakdown of law and order which is capable of causing scarcity of petroleum products across the country”, he said.
