NLNG Restates Commitment To Ensuring Transparency In Contract Awards

The Nigeria  Liquified Natural Gas Limited (NLNG) has reiterated its commitment to ensuring transparency especially in contract awards, procurement and other critical decisions that have laid down policies under the law.

The firm said that as a responsible corporate citizen, it is committed to Nigeria’s development through its contributions to the national revenue, local capacity building, and sustainable development, aligned with its vision of being “a globally competitive LNG company helping to build a better Nigeria.”

This is coming after a recent media reports regarding a meeting by the Senate and House of Representatives’ Joint Committee on Gas, which examined contracts for the Company’s Train 7 project.

These reports suggested that a company representative, Mr. Godson Dienye, made remarks concerning the alleged non-disclosure of project contract details.

However, the NLNG observed that statements attributed to Mr. Dienye were false and misleading, noting that though Dienye attended the proceeding, but he was not questioned and did not make a statement during the session.

The Company said it values its relationship with the National Assembly and consistently operates in compliance with Nigerian laws, including in matters related to the Train 7 project.

The NLNG said it is cooperating and continuously engages with the joint Committee to ensure a shared understanding among all stakeholders, aimed at resolving the issues under consideration.
