The Saki Parapo Association, under the aegis of the Okere of Saki, His Royal Majesty, Oba Dr. Khalid Oyeniyi Olabisi Oyedepo III, has appealed to the Independent Petroleum Marketers Association of Nigeria (IPMAN), Saki Branch, to exercise restraint in its operations and resume the sale of petroleum products without increasing pump prices.
In a statement signed by the Secretary of the association, Dr. Ismail Adewoyin, the group emphasised the importance of preserving Saki’s image as a welcoming and investor-friendly community.
“As Saki emerges as a new destination for the Federal Government’s economic drive, we anticipate an influx of foreign investors. We must showcase our hospitality and friendly disposition to visitors,” the statement read.
The association urged IPMAN members to prioritise humanity and community interest above immediate profit, stressing that such a gesture would strengthen Saki’s growing reputation as a hub for economic development.
“We believe this gesture will contribute to Saki’s growing reputation as a welcoming and investor-friendly community,” Adewoyin stated.
The appeal comes amid concerns over possible fuel price hikes, which the Parapo warned could discourage investment and place unnecessary hardship on residents.
