NNPC Scandal: Baru Sighted In Aso Rock During Buhari’s Meeting With Kachikwu

The Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC Dr. Maikanti Baru, was on Friday at the Presidential Villa.

Baru was sighted at the villa about the same time President Muhammadu Buhari was meeting with the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu.

The NNPC boss who has been accused of corruption and highhandedness was seen at the Vice-President’s Wing of the Presidential Villa before he proceeded to the Office of the Chief of Staff to the President, Abba Kyari.

Although the reason for his visit to the villa is unknown, it might not be unconnected to the allegations levelled against him by Dr. Kachikwu.

According to THE PUNCH, Baru later joined Muslim faithful, including Buhari for the Juma’at service in a mosque inside the Presidential Villa.
