The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN), Kano has directed its members to sell fuel at N150 per litre.
The directive was contained in a statement by the IPMAN chairman Kano chapter, Bashir Danmallam, a copy of which was made available to newsmen in Kano on Wednesday.
He said the directive followed the new price modulation announced by the Petroleum Products Marketing Company (PPMC), and has accordingly instructed its members to comply by selling the product at N150 per litre.

Recall that the PPMC had in a memo signed by its Manager Sales, Mohammed Bello on Tuesday, August 4, 2020, fixed the depot price of premium motor spirit, known as petrol at N138. 62 per litre.
“Please be informed that the Management has approved ex-depot price of petroleum products including Premium motor spirit (petrol) at N138. 62 per liter,” the memo said.
Similarly, he said the private depots had also increased their price as they would sell the commodity to their members at N139. 5 per litre
He asked all members under his jurisdiction to comply with the new price regime by making sure no one sells above the approved ceiling of N150 per litre.
