The Public Accounts Committee of the House of Representatives has summoned the Group Chief Executive Officer of Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL), Bayo Ojulari, to appear before it on December 15, 2025, to respond to outstanding audit queries for the year 2021.
The queries stem from findings by the Office of the Auditor-General of the Federation, alleging payments to contractors for abandoned projects, failure to deduct statutory taxes, and irregular disbursements authorised by NNPCL’s finance office.
Committee Chairman Bamidele Salam said the company’s previous failure to comply with earlier invitations or produce requested documentation amounted to obstruction of legislative oversight. Members also rejected explanations earlier given by NNPCL, including claims of urgent presidential engagements.
