The House of Representatives panel has summoned the GCEO of Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) over issues related to fuel pricing and operations. The panel warned that failure to appear could lead to arrest.

The committee expressed concerns over recent fuel price adjustments and transparency in the management of petroleum products. They demanded that the GCEO provide explanations and documents to clarify ongoing issues.

The NNPCL had recently reviewed fuel prices, prompting questions from lawmakers about its implementation and impact on Nigerians. The panel emphasized the need for accountability in the energy sector.

Observers say this move underscores the importance of legislative oversight and the role of the Reps in ensuring transparency. It also serves as a warning to corporate executives about the consequences of ignoring parliamentary summons.
