Speaking in an interview with the Nigerian Tribune during the weekend, the pioneer National President of the Association, Chief Kolawole Adewoyin, stated that it was heartening to note that under the current administration, the perennial fuel scarcity being experienced during festive period was no longer the norm.\
According to the PDOGMAN boss, “this feat was achieved with thanks to the commitment of President Muhammadu Buhari, the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr.IbeKachikwu and GMD of NNPC, Dr Maikanti Baru.
“We want to thank President Muhammadu Buhari for ensuring fuel availability, especially during the just celebrated Moslem festivities as well as creating the enabling environment for our organisation to thrive.”
While reiterating the association’s commitment towards driving the oil and gas sector, the Group Managing Director/Chief Executive Officer of AA Adewoyin Petroleum said, “Our sole objective is to market and distribute petroleum products and gas to the teeming populace of this country. As the name implies, Private Depot of Oil & Gas Marketers Association of Nigeria, we are entrusted with buying and selling/distribution of petroleum products from all private depots across Nigeria as we are working according to the norms of each depot.”
He stated that the membership of the association is opened to all station owners and dealers as long as they are duly registered with the Department of Petroleum Resources (DPR).
“We are not in contention with any organisation but our primary objectives, amongst others, is to work towards alleviating the sufferings of our teeming members across the nation. It is on record that our members do face a lot of challenges before and after loading their products from any private depot,” he said.
