Except for a last-minute change of mind, the Independent Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has directed its members to immediately withdraw their services in Enugu, Ebonyi and Anambra States over the invasion of its Enugu Secretariat.
The National President of the body, Alhaji Sanusi Fari, in a statement, said the move followed the resolve of the National Executive Council of IPMAN, after an alleged, unwarranted Police invasion of the union’s Enugu Secretariat today (Thursday, September 16, 2021).
According to Alhaji Fari; “The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) wishes to regret, with dismay, the attack today, Thursday, 16th Sept 2021 by men of Nigeria Police Force at our Secretariat in Enugu Depot against court orders/judgements.
“Sequel to this ugly development, the NEC of IPMAN has resolved and directed the withdrawal of our services at Enugu loading depot immediately, and stoppage of servicing the public in Enugu, Anambra and Ebonyi from tomorrow, Friday, 17th Sept. until the police illegality is reversed”.
