IPMAN Fecilitates With Soludo As Anambra’s New Governor

The Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN) on Friday expressed their warmest congratulations to Professor Chukwuma Soludo on his inauguration as Governor of Anambra 24 hours earlier.

Chinedu Anyaso, Chairman of IPMAN in charge of Enugu, Anambra, Ebonyi and Enugu States gave the congratulatory message in Awka.

Anyaso lauded Soludo on his plans to work on the Anambra economy that would be independent of oil by activating its internally generated revenue base and strengthening its fiscal regime.

Anyaso noted that the exploration of oil in commercial quantities and recognition of Anambra as an oil-producing state provided an opportunity for Soludo to grow the state’s oil sector.

The IPMAN chairman, however, said that the absence of a functional petroleum depot in the zone was posing a serious challenge to marketers in the area.
