ANAMBRA State government says it has been resolved that members of Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria, IPMAN, will call off their one-day Solidarity Strike today.
Obi Nwankwo, commissioner for Public Utilities and Domestic Water Development, announced this while briefing newsmen on the outcome of the meeting held at the Department of State Services, DSS, Headquarters, Awka.
“Both sides (Government and IPMAN) have agreed that within three weeks of this agreement, they will form a joint committee to discuss in details the issue of compensation and relocation of the two filling stations, around which the strike revolve.’’
IPMAN went one-day solidarity strike in Anambra in sympathy with two of their members, whose filling stations were removed over poor location in Awka and Onitsha without compensation.
The strike was apparently only observed within Anambra State territory where virtually all filling stations within the urban centres shutdown without dispensing the products.
Primus Odili, chief of staff to Governor Willie Obiano led the Anambra Government Delegation to the meeting, hosted at the DSS State Headquarters, Awka.
