NNPC Group General Manager, Public Affairs, Mr Ndu Ughamadu, said that premium motor spirit popularly known as petrol will not exceed N145 per litre despite the rise in cost of petroleum products.
Ughamadu said, “The Federal Government has made it clear; petrol will continue to sell at N145 per litre. NNPC is not operating subsidy. What we have done is under-recovery of which we make up from other sources.
“Yes, the under-recovery will continue. The corporation plays many roles in the country. We are an importer of the last resort where others refuse to import.
“We equally operate in a social regime to make sure that the system gets wet with products because if the corporation is not doing that as part of its responsibilities, you can imagine what the system will look like.”
