The lawmakers in the House of Representatives are encouraging the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) to continue to embark on measures that will boost the fortunes of Nigeria through the energy sector.

 

The lawmakers said this in a statement issued on Friday titled, ‘NNPCL: A Call For Caution.’

 

Some of the 120 lawmakers that are backing the reforms are Hon. lbori-Suenu Erhiatake, Hon. Martins Esin, Hon. Leko Jafaru Gambo, Hon. Amobi Godwin Ogah, Hon. Abdullahi M. Gwarzo, Hon. Danladi S. Aguye, Hon. Afuape Afolabi Moruf, and Hon. Aliyu Wakili Boya.

The lawmaker under the umbrella body of ‘1 Agenda’ distanced themselves from a recent publication attributable to a member, which calls for the resignation of the Group Chief Executive Officer of the NNPCL, Mele Kyari and the Authority Chief Executive of the Nigerian Midestream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA), Ahmed Farouk

 

They urged NNPC Ltd to continue to implement initiatives that would guarantee the country’s self-sufficiency in oil and gas production.

 

They recalled a recent publication attributable to a member, which called for the resignation of the GCEO of the NNPCL and the ACE of the NMDPRA and clarified that the statement reflects a personal opinion and not the position of the House of Representatives.

 

The ‘1 Agenda’ group of lawmakers said that the GCEO is entitled to a fair hearing, and the House has responsibly constituted a committee to investigate the activities of NNPCL.

 

This, they noted, is not only right but a constitutional entitlement, noting that any call for resignation at this stage is both unnecessary and premature.

 

The statement reads, “1 AGENDA has noted a recent publication attributable to a member, which calls for the resignation of the GCEO of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) and the ACE of the Nigerian Midestream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority (NMDPRA).

 

“We want to clarify that this statement reflects a personal opinion and not the position of the House of Representatives.

 

As members of 1 AGENDA, we wish to state the following unequivocally: The GCEO is entitled to a fair hearing, and the House has responsibly constituted a committee to investigate the activities of NNPCL This is not only right but a constitutional entitlement

 

“Therefore, any call for resignation at this stage is both unnecessary and premature. However, the NNPCL is encouraged to embark on measures that will boost its fortunes and guarantee the country’s self-sufficiency in oil and gas production.

 

“We urge the general public to disregard the publication in question and to support President Bola Anmed Tinubu’s efforts to reform the oil and gas sector for the benefit of all Nigerians.”
