We Don’t Import Adulterated Petrol, Says NNPC by Islie(op): 7:00am On Nov 06, 2024

The Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited says it does not import adulterated premium motor spirit (PMS), also known as petrol.

Olufemi Soneye, chief corporate communications officer of NNPC, spoke on Tuesday while responding to protesters demanding the removal of Mele Kyari, the company’s group chief executive officer (CEO).

According to NAN, civil society organisations stormed NNPC headquarters in Abuja to protest the hike in petrol price.

Soneye challenged anyone to provide evidence that NNPC is importing adulterated petrol.

“The NNPC Ltd. does not import adulterated fuel. If anyone has evidence to the contrary, they should bring forward samples of any such fuel imported by NNPC Ltd,” he said.

“We have more pressing projects to accomplish to ensure energy security for our nation.”

On November 3, Dangote Petroleum Refinery said any oil marketer selling petrol cheaper than the refiner is importing substandard products.

Dangote refinery made the claim after some oil marketers said the refiner’s product is higher than imported petrol.

Also, Soneye said Kyari is not responsible for the increase in petrol price.

NNPC raised the price of petrol from N855 per litre in September to N998 per litre on October 3.

On October 28, NNPC increased the pump price for the second time last month to N1,025 in Lagos, and N1,050 in Abuja.

Soneye said only those without knowledge would blame the CEO for the price increase.

“If they were informed, they would know that the GCEO is not responsible for the fuel price increase,” he said.

“In fact, the GCEO ensured that Nigerians had access to fuel at N620 per litre for over a year, even when the landing cost was above N1,100.”

Soneye said despite the protests, NNPC would not be distracted from achieving the goal of implementing President Bola Tinubu’s roadmap for energy security in Nigeria.

These people (BAT o, NNPC o, ministers o, etc, are seriously making the masses hate the country and everything that has to do with it the more sad

!!

The same election that would have resulted in stampede, bloodshed, pain, regret, theft, vote buying, etc. If it were in this shithole, is the same election going on smoothly in the US of A🇺🇸. I'm sure many people don't even know what's happening in the US as we type...

Should a country as rich as Nigeria still be talking about fuel importation in 2024, considering the billions we spend in importing and subsidizing it?

Why can't NNPCl get our refineries running. I mean billions are being budgetd to it every year...

Before Dangote built refinery, have we not been importing PMS?

So where is this fake news of adulterated fuel coming from?

Even in 2022 Dangote's cars are using same imported PMS

Dangote is a dangerous, monopolous and wicked business man trying to justify his own price by destroying other markets. And not justifing the useless NNPC renovating one single refinery for more than the past 10 years.

Believe Dangote.

The NNPC has no working test laboratory and was responsible in 2022 for importing dirty fuel that brought the country to a halt.

We have weak leaders who are corrupt and incompetent.

Let them sell the NNPC refineries to the oil marketers and then ban oil import so that we can have local competition

Nigeria's petrol is very cheap; the problem is Nigeria's purchasing power. NLC should have negotiated for N300,000 minimum wage
