The company clarified that while Mr Kyari’s words were accurately quoted, the article’s interpretation misrepresented the facts. The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC) has dismissed reports suggesting it has ceased importing refined petroleum products, describing such claims as inaccurate and misleading. The company spoke in response to a story that claimed that the NNPC had ended fuel imports and was now solely sourcing refined products from local refineries, including the Dangote Petroleum Refinery. The report quoted the NNPC’s Group Chief Executive Officer, Mele Kyari, who spoke at the Nigerian Association of Petroleum Explorationists conference in Lagos, themed: Resolving the Nigerian Energy Trilemma: Energy Security, Sustainable Growth and Affordability.

En outre, les noms actifs enregistrés au nom de cette entreprise sont soit expirés, soit annulés, indique l’AND. Pour en savoir plus, nous avons interrogé M....
