Group General Manager and Group Public Affairs Division of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, Mr Ndu Ughamadu, disclosed yesterday that the corporation does not inflate or doctor records of its petroleum products importation into the country.
Ughamadu was reacting to a World Bank report which claimed that the NNPC spent N731 billion to import Premium Motor Spirit, PMS, also known as petrol. The report also stated that the fuel import figure was mainly inflated from an average of 40 million litres per day to 54 million litres daily.
In a recent interview in Abuja, Ughamadu noted that all the figures of petroleum products it had presented are accurate and can be verified from the Department of Petroleum Resources, DPR, the Petroleum Products Pricing Regulatory Agency, PPPRA, the Nigerian Customs Service and other relevant agencies.
