The NNPC Spokesman, Mr Ndu Ughamadu, said this in a statement on Wednesday in Abuja.
According to him, apart from clinching the award for the overall best exhibitor and participant, NNPC also received accolades for the most reputation-conscious participating organisation and the most valued and outstanding participating company.
Ughamadu said Gov. Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu thanked NNPC for its support to various Chambers of Commerce in the country, especially the Enugu Chamber of Commerce, Industry, Mines and Agriculture, ECCIMA.
The statement also quoted the governor as saying “he has learnt a lot at the corporation’s pavilion, and that the NNPC honour was well-deserved,”.
