The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd.) said cordinated attempts are being made to discredit the company’s leadership and attract public ridicule to them.
The allegation was made by NNPCL in a statement its released in which it said the campaign of calumny against the company’s handlers is being peddled by a syndicate of known and faceless actors, within and outside the organisation.
“Their tactics include planting scandalous and fabricated reports, curated to distract leadership, mislead the public, and undermine the commitment of our dedicated workforce and reform-minded Nigerians.
“These are calculated efforts by those who feel threatened by reform, transparency, accountability, and change, a clear evidence of the lengths to which they will go to obstruct the transformation of Nigeria’s foremost energy institution.
“We expect a surge of defamatory content in the days and weeks ahead but NNPC Ltd. remains undeterred. The transformation is underway, and no amount of sabotage will stop it,” the statement read in part.
