IPMAN urges Dangote franchise filling stations to comply with pump price

The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association ofNigeria (IPMAN) has urged dealers that receive direct delivery from Dangote Petroleum Refinery to sell petrol at N739 per litre.

Its National President Alhaji Abubakar Maigandi, reportedly said: “We appeal to any independent market that gets free delivery directly from Dangote Refinery trucks to sell at the company’s price.”

The refinery had last year purchased 4,000 Compressed Natural Gas (CNG) powered tankers for free delivery of petrol to the petrol stations it is partnering with.

Last month, it reduced the refinery’s rate at designated retail outlets to N739 per litre nationwide.

At the close of business in 2025, only MRS vended the product in accordance with the refinery’s rate.

Reports said the other partners were yet to comply with the price because they had not received the free delivery from the refinery.

Maigandi said the other partners are still waiting for the free delivery from the refinery.

He also said they are yet to understand the new tax reform and how it would impact their sales.

The IPMAN National President said consequently, the marketers are yet to make adjustments in line with the tax laws.

According to him, the major overriding feature of the petrol market across the country was the crashing pump prices.

“We don’t know anything about the tax reforms and the changes we are expected to make. We are still waiting for things to unfold.

“The only thing that is common in all the petrol stations in the country today is that pump prices are reducing,” Maigandi said.
