  "account": "The Petroleum Products Retail Outlets Owners Association of Nigeria (PETROAN) has requested that the Federal Government allocate at least 30 percent of its discounted petrol supply to its members. According to Billy Gillis-Harry, the association's president, this move would enhance nationwide distribution and make the price reduction accessible to more Nigerians. PETROAN's extensive retail network could complement the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited's distribution efforts, improving petrol availability across the country.\n\nGillis-Harry emphasized that the 30% allocation is a minimum, and PETROAN could contribute more depending on the dynamics of collaboration with NNPC. With over 230 million Nigerians dependent on this energy, the association's extensive retail volume, which includes NNPC retail outlets as members, could play a significant role in deepening distribution channels more efficiently. The petroleum products retailers' association sees the government's intervention as a way to expedite the distribution of discounted petrol, making it more affordable for Nigerians.",
