NNPC Ltd Disclaims Video Of Adulterated Fuel Sold In Bottles, Jerrycans
By Sunday Etuka, Abuja
The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd) has disclaimed the video of adulterated fuel purportedly sold on its retail outlet at Keffi flyover.
NNPC said, it has carried out spot checks at all its outlets and found the claim to be false.
Mr Olufemi Soneye, Chief Corporate Communications Officer of the NNPC Ltd who dismissed the claim in a statement on Thursday, said the product was not, and could not have been bought from any NNPC Retail outlet as the company does not dispense petroleum products into bottles or jerrycans as displayed in the video.
He explained that
NNPC Retail Ltd does not deal in adulterated products as it adheres to rigorous standards and quality control measures at every stage in its operations to ensure that only high quality, safe, and reliable petroleum products are available at its stations nationwide.
He therefore, urged the members of the public to discountenance the spurious claims made in the video and be wary of selfish and unpatriotic elements pushing such narrative as they do not mean well for the country.
Soneye noted that the company takes pride in maintaining accurate pump integrity with regular inspection and calibration to ensure consistency across its stations nationwide.
