NNPC Refutes Allegations, States Dangote Refinery Provides Majority of Lagos Fuel

The Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) has denounced false assertions that their fuel is short-lived, as presented in a widely shared viral video.
Olufemi Soneye, a NNPC spokesman, reportedly stated that the claim was completely unsubstantiated and unfounded, stemming from amateur, unconfirmed research that is devoid of professional oversight, credibility, and accuracy.
Dangote Refinery contributed a substantial portion of the petroleum sold at NNPC filling stations in Lagos, according to a statement released by NNPC on Saturday.

“NNPC Ltd reaffirms that its fuel is meticulously formulated with one of the best compositions, guaranteeing consumers environmental sustainability, durability, and optimal efficiency.”It’s also critical to highlight that a sizable portion of the Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) sold at NNPC retail stations in Lagos, the location of the false film, comes from the Dangote Refinery, a key partner in advancing regional production and energy security. By upholding stringent industry standards, Dangote Refinery ensures the caliber of petroleum products that are delivered to our customers.

Economic saboteurs are making yet another frantic effort to mislead the public and damage NNPC Ltd.’s reputation with this deceptive video. Deliberate disinformation intended to sabotage our operations and deceive Nigerians would not be accepted,” it stated.

NNPC further stated that it will be pursuing legal action against anybody who wished to damage the company’s reputation by spreading false information about its goods.
