Dangote refinery: Kyari replies Aliko on NNPLC owning blending plant in Malta

The Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPLC, Mele Kyari says he doesn’t own or operate any petroleum blending plant in Malta.

Kyari also said he’s not aware of any employee of the NNPCL that owns or operates a blending plant in Malta or anywhere else in the world.

He made this known in a post on his X handle on Tuesday.

He said the clarification became necessary following an allegation by the President of Dangote Group, Aliko Dangote, that some NNPC workers have established a blending plant in Malta, impeding procurements from local production of petroleum products.

However, NNPLC boss said blending plant in Malta or any part of the world has no influence over NNPC’s business operations and strategic actions.

He said: “I am inundated by enquiries from family members, friends and associates on the public declaration by the President of Dangote Group that some NNPC workers have established a blending plant in Malta, thereby impeding procurements from local production of petroleum products.

“To clarify the allegations regarding blending plant, I do not own or operate any business directly or by proxy anywhere in the world, with the exception of a local mini-agricultural venture. Neither am I aware of any employee of the NNPC, that owns or operates a blending plant in Malta or anywhere else in the world.

“A blending plant in Malta or any part of the world has no influence over NNPC’s business operations and strategic actions.

“For further assurance, our compliance sanction grid shall apply to any NNPC employee who is established to be involved in doing so if availed and I strongly recommend that such individuals be declared public and be made known to relevant government security agencies for necessary actions in view of the grave implications for national energy security.”
