Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Nnpc Tender

Another round of corruption scandal has rocked the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), after a former employee of Glencore Commodity Trading Company, Anthony Stimler, pleaded guilty to bribing Nigerian government official to land favourable and mouth-watering oil contracts.

The startling revelation was uncovered by Bloomberg sources, after U.S prosecutors disclosed that millions of dollars were paid as bribes to NNPC and Nigerian government officials, in exchange for more lucrative grades of oil on more favourable delivery terms contracts.

Video details of the court hearing domiciled in the Manhattan Federal Court in U.S revealed that Stimler pleaded guilty to violating the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act and perpetuating money laundering.

In light of the recent development, naijabusiness.com.ng understands that this is the second high profile corruption case involving the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), following similar claims in the malabu oil scandal, which is currently being investigated by the Federal Government of Nigeria.
