President Bola Tinubu met with the Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC) and the Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) Mele Kyari. Kyari said the federal government is owing the company the sum of N2.8 trillion that it had already paid on petrol subsidy, making it impossible for the company to have funds to channel into its core businesses. The NNPCL boss assured that government will initiate measures to cushion the effects of the removal of subsidy. The federation is waiting for NNPC to settle up to N2.8 trillion of its cashflow from the subsidy regime, which could be a huge challenge for the company. This is due to the country not having the money to pay for the subsidy and NNPC not being able to pay their bill.
