In line with the 1997 IPMAN constitution, immediate past President, Chief Obasi Lawson and Secretary, Alhaji Hassan Kirmi are also IPMAN NEC members. During the course of the meeting, the new executives led by Alh. (Engr.) Sanusi Fari, pledged that there would be adequate, and free flow supply of petroleum products across the country during the elections and beyond. They also pledged their commitment to the effortless strides of Pres. Muhammadu Buhari in ensuring a vibrant oil and gas sector for the Nigerian economy. As it stands today, it has become obvious that these newly sworn executives shall continue to uphold the tenets of IPMAN as they shown an undeniable amount of cooperation to work for the ultimate good of the union. In his opening speech, the National President went the extra mile of thanking God, for making the AGM possible, and for the pronouncement of the Supreme Court which affirmed the 1997 constitution of IPMAN through its ruling of 14th December, 2018 as presented by Hon. Justice Centus Nweze in support of the lead judgment where he stated that the constitutive instrument to be used in determining Chief Obasi Lawson length of time in office is the constitution of IPMAN. He further reiterated the Article XI (VIII) of the 1997 constitution fixes the tenure of office of the National President of the association for a period of 3 years.

Therefore the tenure of Chief Obasi Lawson as IPMAN National President was brought to end following these pronouncements of the Supreme Court. As the former elected deputy president to Chief Obasi Lawson, Alh. Sanusi Fari has duly taken over as the new president of IPMAN in accordance with the article IV OF THE 1997 IPMAN constitution.

My boy is not on the list.

Congratulations Alhaji Ibrahim Buba Gayus.

Let them come and shout marginalization, this is an independent body

see one up there already shouting nepotism. i am sure he is too ignorant to know that its an independent body and is too arrogant to inquire.

80% of the elected executives are from the North. Abi na Buhari elect them?

The North will continue to rule this Country in various capacity while, Biafrans are free to call them names. Such as; Aboki and Almajiri. we do not care.
