The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd) has advised the general public to beware of individuals and companies falsely claiming to represent the company.
The Chief Corporate Communications Officer of the national oil company, Olufemi Soneye, in a statement on Monday explained that their tactics include soliciting fees for meetings with NNPC board of directors, executives and management staff.
While describing these actions are unauthorized and illegal, Soneye, urged foreign investors and international business entities to be cautious, and if approached, it should be reported to the appropriate authorities.
He noted that all legitimate engagements with NNPC Limited occur strictly through official channels or business units only.
He said the company remains committed to transparency, integrity and the protection of its stakeholders in all interactions.
