The Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Ltd. has revealed that a significant percentage of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) sold at its retail stations in Lagos is sourced from the Dangote Refinery.
NNPC’s Chief Corporate Communications Officer (CCCO), Olufemi Soneye, made this known in a statement on Saturday, refuting claims in a viral video that the company’s fuel does not last.
According to the statement, the partnership between the two petroleum companies aims to promote local production and enhance energy security.

NNPC insisted that its fuel is carefully formulated with one of the best compositions, ensuring optimal efficiency, durability, and environmental sustainability for consumers.
The statement further described the video as yet another desperate attempt by economic saboteurs to misinform the public and tarnish NNPC Ltd’s reputation.
