The Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) has announced its decision to relocate some of its units to Lagos with the aim of reducing operational costs and ensuring enhanced service delivery.
This move follows the recent relocation of the Federal Airports Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) and the significant transfer of staff from the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to Lagos.
In a memo titled “Movement to Lagos,” dated February 14, the upstream commission stated that this relocation would enable them to make optimal use of their assets in Lagos.
