Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN), on Wednesday, gave governor Chukwuma Soludo 21 days to stop alleged multiple taxations or they will shutdown operations in Anambra State on June 12th, 2025.

The Chairman of IPMAN, Enugu Depot Community comprising Anambra, Ebonyi, and Enugu States, Comrade Chinedu Anyaso, who disclosed this after the group's meeting held in Awka, alleged that their members were being harassed, molested, intimidated, and extorted by officers of the Anambra State Internal Revenue Service (AiRS).

“The attitudes of these tax collectors overwhelmed our imagination. We have lost a whole lots of money to these uncontrolled taxes in Anambra State. How much are we making per truck? Petroleum marketers are dying in Anambra State.

“In 2024, we paid N120,000 to the State Government as our monthly levy, but to our greatest surprise, we started paying above the stipulated amount of N120,000 from January 2025. This development is making it difficult for us to operate smoothly in the state. We want the State Government to give us a fixed amount for the levy.

“IPMAN may decide to shut down operations in Anambra State without further notice if the exploitation and intimidation do not stop within the 21-day period,” he said.

Soludo and his rascals. We already know he feeds on the sweat of dying businesses. Everything in Anambra seems to be taxed by an out of touch governor.

Soludo is just doing everything to be like his mentor Tinubu.
