Nigeria’s presidency has said that the Group Chief Executive Officer of Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, Bayo Ojulari, has not been forced to sign his resignation letter.

Sunday Dare, a presidential spokesperson, made this clarification in a terse statement exclusively to DAILY POST on Saturday night.

His clarification comes as reports emerged that the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission and the Department of State Services allegedly forced Ojulari to sign his resignation letter.

However, Dare debunked the claim, noting that there is no such thing.

“Not true,” he told DAILY POST.
This followed a statement from NNPCL on June 27, 2025, which raised the alarm over plans to sabotage the state-owned oil firm’s new leadership.

In April 2, 2025 president Bola Ahmed Tinubu appointed Ojulari as GCEO of NNPCL after the removal of Mele Kyari.
