Former Vice President and African Democratic Congress (ADC) presidential candidate Atiku Abubakar has demanded a full account of the ₦11.2 trillion the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Limited (NNPCL) recorded as owed to it by the Federation for advances and costs that include protecting Nigeria's oil and gas assets. He said Nigerians deserve to know how much of the claim went to guarding pipelines, who received the money and what protection it bought. In a statement issued by Phrank Shaibu, Director of Strategic Communication of the ADC Presidential Campaign Council, Atiku said NNPCL's 2024 accounts recorded roughly ₦17.5 trillion across different claims on the Federation, including petrol under-recovery and other receivables. He called on President Bola Tinubu to explain the spending.
