The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL), said it has begun an investigation into allegations of coercion against customers at one of its retail stations. 

The company gave the update following a recent video clip making rounds on X.

In the said video, customers were seen being forced to purchase lubricants before they could purchase Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) also known as petrol.

The attendant in the video had alleged that the development was a directive from the NNPC Retail Management.

However, a statement by its Chief Corporate Communications Officer, Olufemi Soneye, said it has launched an investigation into the unfortunate incident, and assured that appropriate disciplinary action will be taken against the culprit (s).
