NNPCL spokesman, Olufemi Soneye, has now clarified the price at which they bought it.

“We successfully loaded PMS at the Dangote Refinery today,” Soneye told Daily Trust.

“The claim that we purchased it at N760 per liter is incorrect.

“For this initial loading, the price from the refinery was N898 per liter.”

At least, over 70 trucks have been loaded so far.
