NNPC Limited Cautions Against Impersonation by Fraudulent Representatives 

The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) has informed the general public about individuals and companies that are falsely claiming to represent the organization. These impostors are reportedly requesting fees for arranging meetings with NNPC’s board of directors, executives, and management staff. 

Chief Corporate Communications Officer Olufemi Soneye stated these actions are unauthorized and illegal. Foreign investors and international businesses should exercise caution. 

“All legitimate engagements with NNPC Limited occur through official channels only,” stated Soneye. “Report any suspicious approaches to the authorities immediately.” 

For inquiries or to verify an NNPC-related engagement, contact the company at contactus@nnpcgroup.com. 

NNPC Limited emphasizes transparency, integrity, and stakeholder protection, urging vigilance and reporting of suspicious activities. 

“Let’s work together to prevent scams,” Soneye emphasized. “Stay alert and share this notice.”

Opposition political parties in Nigeria on Saturday resolved to form a united front ahead of the 2027 general elections, including plans to field a single presidential candidate, as they accused the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) of undermining democracy. The resolution, contained in a communiqué issued at the end of a national summit in Ibadan, warned against what participants described as attempts by the APC to impose a one-party state on the country. The parties pledged to “resist all machinations” that could threaten Nigeria’s multi-party system.

We Are Better Together: A Caution to the Advocates of Separation

It must first be clearly stated that the North’s preference for Nigerian unity is not because it is incapable of standing on its own, nor because it is uniquely dependent on the present federal arrangement for its existence. Historically, the North demonstrated a strong capacity for political cohesion and governance under the regional system, where the Caliphate produced the Premier and the Sultanate provided the Governor. With a vast, geographically contiguous landmass, a dominant lingua franca and largely shared religious and cultural frameworks, a substantial part of Northern Nigeria has historically functioned as a coherent political space.

PDP Disputes Ibadan Court, Affirms NWC Validity 

The PDP chairman noted that the Ibadan ruling was only one of several judgments of the Federal High Court on the matter and that the core issues were already before the Court of Appeal. He described the decision as “technically academic” pending an authoritative pronouncement by the appellate court. Turaki reassured party members that the National Working Committee produced by the Ibadan Convention remained “legally intact and firmly in place,” and committed to what he described as the party’s ongoing rebirth.

A Setback for Wike in PDP Crisis 

While the Supreme Court’s earlier intervention briefly revived Anyanwu’s standing, Tuesday’s dismissal signals that legal victories alone may no longer be enough to secure long-term control. The struggle within the PDP is increasingly shifting from courtrooms to internal political negotiations, and in that arena, the momentum appears to be slipping away from the Wike camp.
