It goes without saying that fuel, for example, could be a political commodity in the sense that fluctuation in its price would make a Government likeable or unpopular. When the price goes up then people blame the Government for that but if it goes down it is kudos for the political administration.

Its timely importation of petroleum products has earned NP high commendations from various quarters simply because it helps to cushion unrest and other forms of disadvantageous effects one of which is increase in transport fares, increase in the prices of certain commodities.

The Local Content Policy is indeed an engine of growth and NP is making full use of it.

The use of NP Smart Card has gained wide currency as it is used to purchase fuel in an easier and convenient way. As long as the NP Smart Card contains money it could be used to purchase any amount of fuel that an individual may require at a particular Filling Station. It prevents individuals and enterprises from moving around with huge sums of money for the purpose of purchasing fuel. It has now become trending.
