 Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria Calabar Depot says it will shut down depot and 400 patrol stations owned by its 500 members in the wake of alleged incessant police harassment. The 500 members in Ip Man Calabar Depot are drawn from Maccordy Cross River and Acquire Bomb States and are members of the Eastern Zone of the Association. The zone has been at loggerheads with the police over alleged attempts to force effectional leadership on the association across Enugu, Abia, rivers and across river states. In a statement issued in September, the National President of the Association, Sanusifari, had condemned the alleged incessant attacks by the police at their secretariat in Port Arquette, Abia, Calabar, Enugu and Maccordy Depot and directed its members to withdraw their services immediately from all loading depots if police harassment continued. Not long after they suspended their strike following intervention by top government officials and the police top hierarchy, Ip Man Calabar secretariat was allegedly invaded by policemen from Federal Housing Division Calabar at about 6 p.m. on Thursday, September 30, 2021.
