The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has apologised to Nigerians for the pains the nationwide petrol scarcity has caused them in the past three months.
NNPCL’s Group Chief Executive Officer Mele Kyari, who spoke on Channels Television’s special election programme, “The 2023 Verdict”, assured the public that the “glitch” would be resolved to everyone’s relief.
“I apologise for the situation, on behalf of all of us, the stakeholders in the oil and gas industry; definitely, not surely exclusive. Having said this, it is unfortunate. It’s a glitch. We are responsible to (resolve) this glitch. We will resolve this,” he said.
Asked to specify when Nigerians will begin to see a turnaround, Kyari expressed a strong belief that it would be felt “within the next one week”.
But the oil corporation’s boss said there was a caveat.
