"We have approached the state Ministry of Commerce and Cooperatives to assist us with loans and we were asked to form cooperative societies and this we have done and followed due process," he explained.

Imam appealed to tbe state Governor, Alhaji Abdulfattah Ahmed administration to extend his administration loan disbursement scheme to members of the association. He stated that the association is working assiduously in collaboration with government agencies to curb activities of illegal blenders in the state. He said, " We have a disciplinary committee that monitors activities of all lubricant dealers in the state. Our branches across the 16 local government councils assist us with necessary information. "

The chairman advised members of the public to always patronise registered members and products that have Standard Organization of Nigeria registration trademark, urging them to report any case of fake product to security agencies.
