PRESS STATEMENT
Our attention has been drawn to a statement attributed to NNPCL spokesperson, Mr. Olufemi Soneye, that we sell our PMS at N898 per litre to the NNPCL.
This statement is both misleading and mischievous, deliberately aimed at undermining the milestone achievement recorded today, September 15, 2024, towards addressing energy insufficiency and insecurity, which has bedeviled the economy in the past 50 years.
We urge Nigerians to disregard this malicious statement and await a formal announcement on the pricing, by the Technical Sub-Committee on Naira-based crude sales to local refineries, appointed by His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu GCFR, which will commence on October 1, 2024, bearing in mind that our current stock of crude was procured in dollars.
It should also be noted that we sold the products to NNPCL in dollars with a lot of savings against what they are currently importing. With this action, there will be petrol in every local government area of the country regardless of their remote nature.
We assure Nigerians of availability of quality petroleum product and putting an end to the endemic fuel scarcity in the country.

The Political and Philosophical meaning of History. "When someone controls your history that person controls you and that can be forever."
Between 1935 and 1937, Italy declared war on Ethiopia which has come to be part of history as Italo Abyssinian War in an effort to colonise the old African empire.
Many Black Americans at the time organized thems and requested passports from the state in order to allow them to travel to Africa to support their brothers and sisters at home (by way of devoting their lives to fight to defend the kingdom) unfortunately, they were refused. At the same time, other Americans who traced their origins to Italy were granted the permission to go home and fight along with Italian Army against Ethiopia when they placed in their requests (Read American role in Italo-Abyssinia War for more detail).
Surprisingly, in later 1937 (the same year Ethiopia defeated Italy) some of the same black men who were denied the opportunity to go and support Ethiopia were granted the permission to go and fight in Spain under Abraham Lincoln Brigade (Lincoln Brigade was formed by a group of communist volunteers from the United States who served in the Spanish Civil War as soldiers, technicians, medical personnel and aviators fighting for Spanish Republican forces against the forces of General Francisco Franco and his Nationalist faction. The Lincoln Brigade was a mercenary force integrating white and black volunteers on an equal basis.)
With the guidance of our Ancestors, the Ethiopians were able to defeat the Italians to avoid their colonization despite having less sophisticated ammunitions. The Ethiopian forces used lions, bees, wasps, and elephants in the war against the colonizers. It is important to points out here that, Ethiopia has never been colonized. They trained these creatures to fight their enemies. This is just one of the many wonderful stories of our past!
There are many great things which the current generation can achieve for Africa if only we can put our minds to the African agenda and we stand together in unity.
"I went to Egypt to see our History as Africans, and one thing I concluded was the day Africans realises themselves and they unite as one, the world will shake."
