The Federal Government through its Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA) says the source supplier of the contaminated Premium Motor Spirit, popularly called petrol imported into the country has been identified.
The adulterated or contaminated fuel, which was imported into the country by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited is currently being recalled from circulation.
According to petrol marketers, the adulterated fuel has a high content of methanol and ethanol, which are outside the official specification of Nigeria’s petrol.
It was earlier reported how the efforts by the NNPC to recall the contaminated petrol caused fuel scarcity in Lagos and other parts of the country.
