The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd has denied that the allegation that the ongoing fuel scarcity witnessed in the country is a deliberate effort to sabotage the efforts of a targeted presidential candidate.
The group chief executive officer of the oil giant, Mele Kyari, said during an interview on NTA that nobody orchestrated the queues to frustrate the chances of any candidate.
Bola Ahmed Tinubu, the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress had accused the Muhammadu Buhari-led administration of orchestrating policies to frustrate his chances in the February 25, election.
Tinubu had said during a campaign at the MKO Abiola Stadium in Abeokuta in Ogun that the fuel queues and the naira redesign are a deliberate attack on him by a section of people in the presidency that are working against him.
