Group rejects alleged ₦210tn gap in NNPCL accounts

A group has rejected claims of a ₦210tn gap in the accounts of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL). It urged the Senate to reconcile the figures amid ongoing scrutiny.

The group dismissed the alleged ₦210tn discrepancy in NNPCL's financial records, calling for the Senate to verify and reconcile the reported figures. This comes as the Senate confronts NNPCL over concerns related to N210trn in oil revenue. The rejection highlights tensions in the oversight of Nigeria's petroleum sector finances, with the group emphasizing the need for accurate accounting to maintain public trust.

No specific details on the group's identity or the exact nature of the alleged gap were provided in the reports. The Senate's involvement points to broader efforts to ensure transparency in oil revenue management.
