Chairman of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC), Ola Olukoyede, has denied reports that he forced the chief executive officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) limited, Bayo Ojulari, to resign.
In a statement, the EFCC spokesman, Dele Olukoyede, faulted a report by an online portal, alleging that he allegedly abducted Ojulari and forced him to resign in Abuja, demanding a retraction of the story from the online platform and a public apology within 48 hours.
Meanwhile, amid his rumored resignation, Ojulari attended a society of petroleum engineers event in Lagos where he advised Africa to come up with bankable energy projects as one of the ways of ensuring a sustainable energy future.
