EFCC to probe alleged importation of dirty fuel

A civic group, the Centre for Accountability and Transparency, CAAT, has urged the Federal Competition and Consumer Protection Commission, FCCPC, and the Economic Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, to thoroughly investigate reports alleging that adulterated petroleum products were imported into the country.
Seaking on the matter at a press conference in Abuja on Tuesday, the convener of CAAT, Okwa Dan urged the FCCPC and EFCC to investigate the allegation properly due to negative effects the alleged bad fuel may have on Nigerians.
Recall that reports had earlier emerged that Matrix Energy Limited, allegedly imported the adulterated petroleum products from Malta into Nigeria.
The company had, however, debunked the claim, describing the reports as false and malicious.
