NNPCL debunks video of adulterated fuel sold in bottles, jerrycans

The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPCL, has disclaimed a viral video alleging that it sold adulterated Premium Motor Spirit, PMS, in bottles and jerrycans.

Olufemi Soneye, the Chief Corporate Communications Officer of NNPCL in a statement on Thursday said that it had carried out spot checks at all its outlets and found the claim to be false.

Recall that a video clip of someone pouring a dark liquid which he claims to be PMS purportedly bought from an NNPC Retail outlet at Keffi Flyover has been circulating on social media.

Soneye advised the public to discountenance the spurious claims made in the video and be wary of selfish and unpatriotic elements pushing such narrative, as they did not mean well for the country.

According to him, NNPCL takes pride in maintaining accurate pump integrity with regular inspection and calibration to ensure consistency across our stations nationwide.
