He should have reminded you that we are buying fuel for 900/ltr here
@RealOlaudah
Didn’t he tell you how honorable it is to open up your books to public scrutiny and stop running OUR
@nnpclimited as a personal enterprise?
@ebukaaaaaaa
He has no idea that you are a plague to the Nigerian nation a politically protected thief who would have been in jail if Nigeria was A working country.
@gabriel_bolatit
Why Nigerians are lamenting the availability of petrol ⛽️ the @nnpclimited CEO is flexing in Medina. Nawaoo.
@zubidavies
NNPC is running on Insha Allah not what you bring to the table. How was Malta too?
@OlorogunErnest
Even with the long fuel queues in Nigeria, Kyari and President Tinubu are out of the country. These guys don’t give a f**k about Nigerians.
Very insensitive & careless.
Nigerians rush to NNPC to buy cheap fuel
Meanwhile, Legit reported that more Nigerians are turning to NNPC fuel stations to buy fuel as filling stations around the country pumps.
Independent marketers’ fuel stations in certain states are asking motorists to pay up to N937 per litre for petrol.
NNPC has blamed the fuel scarcity that has led to long queues nationwide on supply challenges, not availability.
