Obat Oil Plc has firmly denied rumours of delays at its Lagos depot caused by unloaded trucks, calling the claims baseless.
In a statement released on Wednesday, the company clarified that it maintains efficient operations, running from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., Monday to Friday, and even on weekends upon client requests to meet demand.
The company urged the public to disregard the false allegations, attributing them to malicious attempts by unscrupulous individuals to spread misinformation.
The statement reads: “We would like to address recent rumours circulating on social media about the alleged delays at the Obat depot due to unloaded trucks. This information is false.
“Our Group Managing Director, Prince Akinfemiwa Akinruntan, emphasises the importance of verifying facts before spreading misleading news.
“At Obat Oil, we operate from 8 AM to 8 PM, Monday through Friday, and are available on weekends and public holidays when requested by our clients. Any delays in loading trucks are based solely on instructions from our clients, not due to our operations.
“We have just received a new cargo shipment and assure our customers that we maintain a transparent and integrity-driven service. We value our clients and guarantee that at no point do we fail to load products as promised.
“We urge the public to disregard this misinformation and rely on accurate sources for information. Thank you for your understanding.”
