The President notes with satisfaction the recent increase in oil production from 1.5 million to 1.7 million barrels per day within two months and welcomes the renewed drive toward achieving the target of 1.9 million barrels by year-end.

“You have your work clearly defined before you. As head of NNPC Limited, your mission is to win investor confidence and ensure that NNPC becomes a key driver of Nigeria’s economic growth. On your birthday, my message to you is simple: continue to serve God and country with dedication and integrity, knowing that your efforts will bring renewed hope to Nigerians and strengthen our energy industry,” President Tinubu says in a tribute.

“I pray God to grant you strength, wisdom, and success as you lead the NNPC Limited to greater heights”.
