Product racketeering worsens, sells at N180 per litre
Ejiofor Alike

The official price of kerosene will move up to N135 from N73 per litre on Monday, THISDAY investigation revealed wednesday.

According to reliable sources, the Pipelines and Product Marketing Company (PPMC), a subsidiary of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), has decided to increase the ex-depot price to N135 per litre with effect from Monday, after the next consignment of about 17,000MT capacity imported vessel arrives Lagos this week.



THISDAY gathered that following foreign exchange crisis, which makes it difficult for the private marketers to access foreign exchange at the official price, the PPMC assumed the sole importer of kerosene, thus leading to the scarcity of the product.

But THISDAY learnt that the public who are the end users would not be losing much as the product had always sold above the N73 official price because of racketeering by officials of PPMC and the marketers.

In the massive scam, officials of PPMC allocate the product to marketers at ex-depot price of N73 per litre, while the marketers sell to the public at over N180 per litre, THISDAY’s investigation revealed.

In a circular number: PPMC/MKT/IBN/01/2016, signed by one LNS Madubuike, the PPMC had directed marketers to pay N73 per litre for kerosene imported by the company. The marketers, however, sell the product to the public at between N180 and N250 per litre.

Some independent marketers, who could not get allocation from the PPMC, told THISDAY that some officials of PPMC collect bribe of N1 million on every truck of kerosene allocated to the marketers.

Another alleged scam by PPMC officials in kerosene importation, it was learnt, is that up to 50 trucks are not discharged in every imported vessel.

According to a PPMC source, after discharging kerosene to the private marketers, this quantity is left in the vessel by PPMC as Remain on Board (ROB) and nobody knows what happens to this product.
NNPC’s spokesman, Mr. Garuba Deen Muhammadu, however, told THISDAY yesterday that he would find out the true situation from the PPMC before responding to the issues raised.

But it was gathered that PPMC has been the sole importer of kerosene as the private marketers use their limited foreign exchange to focus on the importation of petrol.

An official of PPMC, who was not happy with the fraud in kerosene allocation, said that it was brisk business between some officials of the company and the marketers.

“We thought that things will change with the new administration. It actually changed initially but is now business-as-usual. It does not serve public interest to allocate kerosene at N73 or N135 per litre to some people at public expense and the beneficiaries will sell to the public at N180 and even N250 in some instances. This arrangement serves private pockets and something has to be done fast about it,” he said.

Investigation revealed that from the last consignment imported by the PPMC, the independent marketers were selling at ex-depot price of between N170 and 182 per litre.

Some of the independent marketers whose depots had sold kerosene between N170 and N182 per litre include: Capital Oil, Eterna Oil; Rahamaniyya, Aquitane, AA Rano, and Obat Oil.

It was also gathered from PPMC sources that Honeywell, Aiteo and NIPCO Plc would share the next consignment of PPMC’s kerosene that will arrive this week.
However, it was gathered that PPMC has increased the ex-depot price of this new consignment from N73 per litre to N135 per litre.

It was also learnt that because of the scam perpetrated by the marketers and the PPMC officials in kerosene allocation, the major marketers have shunned kerosene business to protect their business integrity.

“The whole kerosene thing is messy and that is why the major marketers do not want to get involved. The major marketers are not ready to give anybody bribe and sell above stipulated price. The whole thing improved when President Buhari came in initially. You will recall that Forte Oil became involved and it sold kerosene at N50 per litre to the public and it was publicised. But now, we are back to the status quo and the whole thing has become messy. The major marketers are not ready to play ball to get kerosene allocation,” said one of the major marketers, who spoke to THISDAY off the record.

At the early stage of President Muhammadu Buhari’s administration, Forte Oil had commenced the sale of what it described as “Buhari Kerosene” at N50 per litre in its retail outlets in Lagos.

I knew it from the first day ,,that all the shouting from Marafa and co ..was to get something ,,,it wasn't to the interest of The masses...

NIGERIANS VOTERS TAKE NOTE...

Massive Defection in APC as 36 Senators, 6 Governors, Others Join Forces with Saraki

Anxiety seems to have gripped the Leadership of the All Progressives Congress, APC, over a possible high profile mass defection from the party.
Post-Nigeriam learnt that many of the party leaders are worried that the APC might be going the way of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, in the days of former President, Goodluck Jonathan, when the then Speaker of the House of Representatives and now Governor of Sokoto State, Aminu Tambuwal, jumped ship from the PDP to the APC.
With the current posture of the Senate, and a resolution passed by the House of Representatives, warning the Executive against hounding the Legislators, many in the APC are worried that the party might soon recreate the ‘Tambuwal scenario’, if breaks were not pulled on the lingering crisis.
Leaders of the party are worried that if the Senate President, Bukola Saraki, decides to confront the APC and cross over to the PDP, or any other upcoming party, he would not only tilt the Senate in favour of the PDP, but he might be leaving with the 36 APC Senators currently supporting him.
He would also do a heavy damage according to sources, because about 6 APC Governors are currently behind him.
Already, it was learnt that discussions are on-going, between some disgruntled members of the APC and their PDP counterparts, on either the formation of a new party, or an alliance that would see a mass defection from the APC.

A source, who pleaded anonymity over possible sanction by the party, however, said that the APC national leadership was looking for a political solution to resolve the crisis, even as he blamed the wrangling on interest and the executive’s interference in the affairs of the legislature.
Saraki, who is a member of the ruling party, is being prosecuted by the Federal Government, at the Code of Conduct Tribunal, CCT, for alleged false declaration of assets.
He is also facing another trial at an Abuja High Court, alongside his Deputy, Senator Ike Ekweremadu of the PDP, over alleged forgery of the Senate Rules.
The rift has continued to fester, and is assuming a more dangerous dimension. During the last Ramadan period, President Muhammadu Buhari, hosted different classes of people, including party leaders, business moguls, physically challenged persons, friends of the government, among others. However, his planned breaking of fast with members of the National Assembly and their Leaders was cancelled for no reason.
While the Presidency held that the dinner was just postponed, sources at the National Assembly said that the Legislators simply refused to attend, owing to what they perceived as the persecution of Saraki and Ekweremadu.
On Saraki’s prosecution, the source said, that while the belief is that the APC is hounding him, because he defied the party’s leadership to emerge as President of the Senate, it should be noted that the present administration has persistently said that its war against corruption is total.
“I agree that politics is a game of interest. So, I cannot dismiss those who are saying that the Senate President is being persecuted, because he defied the APC leadership during the election for presiding officers of the Senate, but one thing we must bear in mind, is that the present administration has never pretended that there would be no sacred cows in the fight against corruption,” the source said.

IMMEDIATELY SARAKI IS REMOVED BE READY FOR ANOTHER BLOODY FIGHT IN THE SENATE.. I DONT SEE APC PUTTING THE ONE THE WANT AS SENATE PRESIDENT WINNING, A GANG UP WILL SURFACE AND STILL THOSE SUPPORTING SARAKI AND THE PDP, BY HIS REMOVAL WILL FORM A CAUCUS AND INSTALL WHO THEY WANT...

PDP AND THE AGREED APC.. I WILL HOW APC WILL INSTALL THE ONE THE WANT..

LET HE WITHOUT SIN BE FIRST TO CAST THE STONE...

can't wait to see when PMB go carry budget come Nass and see how these senators go am..shege...
