Group commends Tinubu over new appointments in NNPCL

A group, the South-South Initiative for Better Nigeria (SSIBN), has commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu over three key appointments in the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL).

In a statement signed by the National Coordinator of SSIBN, Mr. Jack Akpvwoghene, and Programmes Manager, Ebitare Wellington, the group praised the President for his commitment to the development of the Nigerian oil sector.

According to them, the recent appointments into key management positions of the NNPCL demonstrate the president’s resolve to strengthen the company’s operational efficiency and boost its competitive edge in the global oil and gas industry.

“These significant appointments are a testament to your unwavering commitment to the Nigerian oil and gas sector in ensuring it meets international standards and boosts Nigeria’s potential as far as the Oil and Gas Industry is concerned.

“As we celebrate these appointments, we look forward to their continued efforts in driving impactful policies and programmes that will further uplift the country’s oil and gas sector.”

“The appointments of “Mr Isiyaku Abdullahi as Executive Vice President, Downstream, Mr Udobong Ntia as the Executive Vice President, of Upstream, and Mr Adedapo A. Segun as the Chief Financial Officer (CFO) cannot come at a time other than now, as it shows the unwavering support of Mr President in taking the Nigerian Oil and Gas sector to a greater height in the global Oil and Gas industry.”

“The appointment of Ntia Udobong Kokoete could not have come at a better time, as it reminds us in the South-South of the good days of Adokiye Tombomieye as EVP upstream.

Tombomieve was able to manage the internal affairs of the Niger Delta region, helping the GCEO, Mele Kolo Kyari, to have a smooth relationship with youths in the region.

“We at SSIBN commend Mr. President for these key major appointments in the oil sector, and we stand ready to support him as well as collaborate with him on initiatives that align with the vision of a prosperous and inclusive Nigeria,” the statement noted.
