The management of Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission, NUPRC has dismissed as wild, baseless and unfounded allegations by
some elements in the workers’ union, accusing it of wrongdoings.
In a statement yesterday, the regulatory agency challenged those behind the allegations to publish details of the wrongdoings and to produce other documentary evidence to support their case.
It also denied wasting money on sensitisation workshops and renovation of offices across the country. It accused the union of being out to tarnish the image of the Commission Chief Executive, Gbenga Komolafe and to undermine his outstanding achievements. It also defended recent recruitments in the commission saying the exercise was done in strict compliance with all procedures and compliance certificate issued by the relevant agencies. It urged the public to disregard the wild allegations sponsored by some political jobbers seeking to replace the management of the commission.
