The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, Kano State chapter, has instructed its members to sell fuel at N150 per litre.
The directive was contained in a statement by IPMAN State Chairman, Bashir Danmallam.
He said the directive followed the new price modulation announced by the Petroleum Products Marketing Company.
“I have accordingly, instructed our members in Kano to comply, by selling the product at N150 per litre,” Danmallam said.
According to him, the directive was also in compliance with the government’s earlier statement that it would review the price of the commodity on a monthly basis depending on the price at the International market.
The PPMC had in a memo signed by its Sales Manager, Mohammed Bello, on Tuesday, August 4, 2020, fixed the depot price of petrol at N138.62 per litre.

Danmalam assured the public of the availability of the petroleum products at all times.
