“The company asserts that these reports are false and urges Nigerians to disregard them entirely.
“NNPC Ltd reaffirms its commitment to sustaining the current sufficiency in petroleum products supply across all its retail stations in the country.”
The reports that the pump of petrol skyrocketed following the removal of fuel subsidy by President Bola Tinubu on May 29, 2023, rising to over N600 naira from about N200 until the end of the Muhammadu Buhari administration
