Members of the House of Representatives have called on the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited to suspend the four companies which recently imported adulterated fuel into the country.
The lawmakers also mandated its committee on petroleum downstream to investigate the release and sale of the off-spec Premium Motor Spirit by petrol stations across the country, to bring the culprits to book. The issue was raised on Thursday as a motion of urgent public importance by the Chief Whip of the House, Mohammed Monguno.The NNPC GMD on Wednesday explained how ‘adulterated’ Premium Motor Spirit from Belgium and listed the companies – MRS, Emadeb/Hyde/AY Maikifi/Brittania-U Consortium, Oando, and Duke Oil responsible.
Some of the lawmakers lamented that the system is completely compromised, considering the processes which the fuel must go through before reaching the fuel stations. They asked that Nigerians whose vehicles and equipment were directly affected by the adulterated fuel be compensated.
👍
NNPC failed on their job by not testing the products before it gets to the consumer market and they are talking about suspending the companies. They should be first queried for incompetencies.
Laughable. Just laughable. Nigeria my country
Yes is true 👌
NNPC to suspend who? I think we were told before that NNPC is the sole importer of pms that's why we don't pay subsidy to any third party
If a joke was a country
Withhold license from All of them 4 7yrs.They have spoil our cars!!
But they own the companies that imported the fuel na…. How can a dog eat another dog?
NNPC themselves need to be suspended...so many incompetent people in offices.🙄
Now that we know NNPC is the culprit. Who will be suspended?
Nice one
A country as big as Nigeria with abundant resources, doesn't have a functional refinery? Our leaders from independence till date should be ashamed of themselves. They have killed everything that will make this country grow for their selfish interests.
Better
The minister of petroleum (Buhari) and leadership in NNPC its self should be suspended and investigated, how did the poor quality fuel enter our country undetected. Bunch of corrupt and incompetent people.
