The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd) has issued a statement in response to a recent viral video that allegedly shows a dark liquid claimed to be Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) purchased from an NNPC Retail outlet at Keffi Flyover. NNPC Ltd emphasizes that this claim is unsubstantiated, and the company upholds strict quality control measures to ensure all petroleum products meet the highest standards. In the release, NNPC Ltd assures the public of its commitment to providing safe and reliable fuel, urging Nigerians to disregard unfounded reports circulated in the video.
The Release, captioned “NNPC Ltd Disclaims Video of Adulterated Fuel Sold in Bottles, Jerrycans” states: The attention of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd) has been drawn to the video clip of someone pouring a dark liquid which he claims to be Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) purportedly bought from an NNPC Retail outlet at Keffi Flyover, and wishes to state as follows:
1. That we have carried out spot checks at all our outlets and found this claim to be false. 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.
2. 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.
3. That members of the public should 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.
4. That we take pride in maintaining accurate pump integrity with regular inspection and calibration to ensure consistency across our stations nationwide.
I definitely get annoyed at the same time as other people think about issues that they just don’t know about. You controlled to hit the nail upon the highest as neatly as outlined out the whole thing with no need side-effects , other folks could take a signal. Will likely be again to get more. Thank you
