 IPMAN refuses to support strike action

By Emmanuel Awosika

The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has dissociated itself from the planned strike action by organized labour in the country.

The IPMAN National Public Relations Officer, Alhaji Suleiman Yakubu, revealed this during an interview at Abuja today.

Organized labour in the country led by the Trade Union Congress and the National Labour Congress are set to embark on an industrial action from Monday over the hike in petrol prices and electricity tariffs.

However, Yakubu urged IPMAN members not participate in the strike action, since it was not part of the TUC or NLC.

His words: “IPMAN will not be part of the strike the NLC is calling, since our Association is not part of NLC.

“Therefore, we have already directed our members to continue doing there normal business while NLC and TUC are doing there strike.” he said.

He further asked Nigerians to cooperate with the government in order to build a better and stronger economy.
