The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has directed members to suspend all operations across the country.

This was contained in a statement signed on Tuesday by Mohammed Kuluwu, IPMAN chairman.

The statement said the marketers were also ordered to suspend payment of ordering products from source until further notice.

The association said the decision followed, “the critical situation as it affect our sourcing and selling of product at lost (sic) and the action of the authority to impose the selling of product at a lost price (sic) on our side”.
