However, Kyari who is troubled bybthe allegation said in a statement he posted on his official x.com on Tuesday that he didn’t own any plant either by himself or by proxy anywhere in the world, nothing that he was ‘inaundated’ with inquiries from his family members, friends and associates over the allegations that workers in NNPCL owned a plant in Malta.
Read full statement below
_“I am inundated by enquiries from family members, friends and associates on the public declaration by the President of Dangote Group that some NNPC workers have established a blending plant in Malta thereby impeding procurements from local production of Petroleum products.
_”To clarify the allegations regarding blending plant, I do not own or operate any business directly or by proxy anywhere in the world with the exception of a local mini Agric venture.
Neither am I aware of any employee of the NNPC, that owns or operates a blending plant in Malta or anywhere else in the world.
_”A blending plant in Malta or any part of the world has no influence over NNPC’s business operations and strategic actions.
_”For further assurance, our compliance sanction grid shall apply to any NNPC employee who is established to be involved in doing so if availed and I strongly recommend that such individuals be declared public and be made known to relevant government security agencies for necessary actions in view of the grave implications for national energy security.”
