And we have published these by list of states \u2013 where those trucks go, the number of trucks that have left those [depots], etc.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhen they leave the depots, where do they end up? That is what would have translated to national consumption,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>The NNPC boss said it is practically impossible under an arbitrage environment and under a situation where neighbouring countries are helpless to say that there will be no cross-border movement of petroleum products.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThat\u2019s why we\u2019re making it legitimate in the sense that NNPC is now buying fuel stations across our borders, so that we can deliver to them legitimately. It is very simply impossible to stop this until we are able to solve this arbitrage issue.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo, definitely, what you\u2019re dealing with is a logistic challenge, rather than anything else,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Group CEO, Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited, Mele Kyari, has disclosed why smuggling and cross border supply are bane of effective and adequate fuel distribution and supply in the country.
