The statement urged foreign investors and international business entities to be cautious, clarifying that all engagements are done through NNPCL official channels or recognised business units.
“Foreign investors and international business entities are especially urged to remain cautious. If approached, report the incident to the appropriate authorities immediately.
“NNPC Limited remains committed to transparency, integrity and the protection of our stakeholders in all interactions. Let’s work together to prevent scams. Stay alert and share this notice,” said the national oil company.
