By Charles Nwabardi

The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has assured Nigerians that there is no plan to hike petroleum price in the country.

There have been queues at many filling stations across Nigeria while many others have closed down their operations, causing panic among drivers and commuters.

In a statement on Monday, Bashir Dan-Mallam, Chairman of IPMAN, Kano zone, said the association has constituted a task force to check the hoarding of petroleum products by filling stations.

Dan-Mallam said: “IPMAN will not allow some unscrupulous elements within its fold to inflict hardship on innocent Nigerians,”
