@NNPCgroup is the only company that I know that reward failure greatly!

They released an audit financial statements for 2018, noting that its refineries recorded losses of N154 billion and still spend N 23 billion yearly on wages and benefits!😪

The under-remittances, underpayments, inefficiencies, theft or absence of clear fiscal regime in @NNPC if not curbed will finish this country. WE NEED TO COMMERCIALISE NNPC NOW OR DIE SOON!

Crude oil is Nigeria’s most important non-renewable energy source, accounting for around 90% of export earnings, yet for decades, the industry has been troubled by bad leadership, corruption and environmental degradation.
#NNPCAuditReport
To give an idea of the NNPC’s lack of transparency, they only published the group’s audited financial statements for the first time in its 43 years of operation in 2020.

NNPC released its audited financial statements for 2018, noting that its refineries recorded losses of N154 billion!! Just Imagine how much we've been losing since!!!
#NNPCAuditReport
The government-run NNPC has proved to be inefficient and riddled with corruption. A commercialized NNPC with more committed employees would mean better accountability and transparency in its operations.
#NNPCAuditReport
The possible introduction of more shareholders would strengthen the amount of funding available to the NNPC and further shift the burden of being the sole-financier away from the government.
#NNPCAuditReport
Th biggest among the NNPC’s problems is corruption. A number of investigative reports have explained how subsidy payments, domestic crude allocation, revenue retention practices, and oil-for-product swap agreements are smeared with corruption. #NNPCAuditReport
The National Assembly has initiated countless probes and new management seeking transparency has been introduced by the President, however, it just seems like the rot has eaten too deep into the system.
#NNPCAuditReport
The constant performance of the corporation with several corruption allegations, inefficiency, and unclarity is indeed worrisome. It is time to have the NNPC turn over a new leaf and operate on a commercial basis. #NNPCAuditReport
This would afford the government the ability to deploy funds into other segments of the economy and have the NNPC focus on being a commercially viable entity.
#NNPCAuditReport
The delay of the PIB is very disturbing as it has the potential for curbing Nigeria’s hedonistic oil industry, to become more inclusive and accountable. #NNPCAuditReport
Continuing to delay the passage of the PIB not only robs the country of this important opportunity, it would ensure that the bleeding continues.

The fundamental issues of the exorbitant amount we pay to buy PMS isn't being tackled! @NigeriaGov and @NNPCgroup are the only parties that can explain the type of deregulation we are practising in Nigeria.

#DeregulateNigOil
The federal government has continue to engage in "monopolistic deregulation" of the downstream sector. A monopolistic deregulation as a system where the deregulation mechanism and the field are reserved for only one or few selected players
#DeregulateNigOil
The Govt. have failed to allow market forces to determine the petroleum pump price in the country, there is a need for government to enforced total deregulation of the petroleum downstream sector.

It's now a sad case of if @NNPCgroup doesn't kill Nigeria, Nigeria will kill NNPC. The wastage and corruption in NNPC is an eyesore, the saddest part is if the govt. fail to fund NNPC, it will collapse!

It’s shameful that Nigeria has the largest reserves in Africa but was able to only receive 4% of the amount invested in the continent between 2015-2019.

The delay of the PIB is costing the economy an approximated US$200billion annually according to NEITI, in addition to US$15billion lost due to decreased investments.
#FixNigeriaPassPIB
The non-passage of the Petroleum Industry Bill by the Nigerian Government has continued to wreak havoc on the country, especially as it makes Nigeria’s oil and gas sector less attractive to investors.

Worldwide, the average life expectancy rate is about 70 years, life expectancy in the Niger Delta is 41yrs. The oil spills in the Niger Delta have negative implications on local human health and has made malnutrition predominant...

@nassnigeria
...as the region is only capable of producing small portions of food unaffected by oil spills.

The development of the Niger Delta is sacrosanct and having a solid piece of legislation is very important.

#NigeriansDemandPIB
There is no doubt that efforts to transfer benefits to the Niger Delta region over the years like the 13% Derivation fund, NDDC and so on have been marred by corruption.

Fot the past 20 years of trying to enact a reform in the oil sector, the Niger deltans have continued to suffer. Multinational companies are making huge profits while majority of the people live on less than $1 a day.

The economy in the Niger Delta is almost exclusively oil driven, and many people are involved, illegally, in oil extraction. The Niger Delta bear the burden of environmental degradation from the oil industry, but see very little of the benefit.
#NASSRevisitPIB
Life expectancy in the Niger Delta is 41yrs. What causes this? The degradation of the environment from oil exploration activities. The environment has been visibly ravaged and it affects the economic activities and livelihoods of the people in the region. #NASSRevisitPIB
