THE Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) has directed its members who have not yet registered with the Dangote Refinery to do so immediately, as the facility begins direct fuel supply on Monday, 15 September.
The directive was contained in a memo issued to all zonal and depot chairmen by the IPMAN President, Alhaji Abubakar Maigandi, and the National Secretary, Hon. James Terlumun Tor.
According to the memo, members who have already completed their registration with Dangote Refinery and Petrochemicals Company Limited are instructed to commence immediate payments for fuel products.
The statement read:
“The National Executive Committee (NEC) of the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN), under the leadership of Alhaji Abubakar Maigandi Shettima as National President and Hon. James Terlumun Tor as National Secretary, is pleased to inform members who have renewed their IPMAN membership registration in line with the IPMAN 2009 Constitution (as amended) that payment, loading, and supply of petroleum products at the Dangote Refinery have commenced.
“IPMAN members who have already registered with Dangote Refinery and Petrochemicals Co. Ltd are directed to resume immediate payment to Dangote Refinery and Petrochemicals Co. Ltd. Be informed that on Monday, 15th September 2025, the company will commence product loading and supply directly to buyers’ locations within the country.
“Interested members who are yet to register with Dangote Refinery and Petrochemicals Co. Limited are urged to proceed with their registrations without delay.”
The move is expected to strengthen direct access to refined petroleum products for independent marketers across Nigeria, reducing dependence on intermediaries and enhancing nationwide distribution.
