NNPCL denies selling substandard fuel
The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has denied selling substandard petrol with a high burn rate.
This was contained in a statement signed by its spokesperson, Olufemi Soneye, on Saturday.
NNPCL was reacting to a viral video claiming that its petrol does not last long in fuel tanks.
Our correspondent reports that a video had surfaced online where a content creator claimed he bought a litre of Dangote petrol from MRS filling station in Alapere, Lagos, at N925 and the same litre at NNPC in Ojodu Berger at the rate of N945.
According to him, he poured the fuel into separate power generators, and the one running on NNPC fuel stopped after 17 minutes, while the Dangote petrol lasted until 33 minutes.
But the NNPCL said the petrol purchased from its filling station was from the Dangote refinery.
“The NNPC Ltd strongly refutes the false and misleading allegations made in a viral video circulating online, which claims that NNPC fuel does not last.
“This assertion is baseless and entirely unfounded, originating from unverified and amateur research that lacks credibility, accuracy, and professional oversight,” the statement said.
