The
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation on Tuesday assured Nigerians that there
would no longer be fuel scarcity in the country.
The
Group Managing Director of the corporation, Dr Maikanti Baru, said this in
Abuja at the 2018/2019 crude oil term contract bid opening.
According
to him, the opening of bids is an indication of President Muhammadu Buhari’s
drive for transparency and accountability in the conduct of government
business.
He
condemned the recent fuel shortage, which lasted a month, describing the
corporation’s downstream counterparts as ‘unpatriotic’.
Baru
warned those that would be selected after the bid against indulging in sharp
practices.
“I
am happy that this problem has been dealt with and the few pockets of
non-compliance have been tackled.
“It
was unfortunate that due to the behaviour of a few bad eggs, the Christmas was
a pain. We hope you will never be part of this incident and we also hope this
type of thing never happens in the future.
