Governor AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq of Kwara State has congratulated Engr. Bayo Ojulari on his appointment as the new Group Chief Executive Officer (GCEO) of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL).
A statement by the Governor’s Chief Press Secretary, Rafiu Ajakaye, on Wednesday said AbdulRazaq received with happiness the appointment of the distinguished Kwaran, a big shot in the oil sector.
Governor AbdulRazaq described the appointment as another big deal for Kwara State and its people. It comes a few days after the President graciously named Senator Ibrahim Yahya Oloriegbe the chairman of the National Health Insurance Authority (NHIA), a critical lever upon which the country’s health sector rests.
The Governor congratulated Engr. Ojulari on the appointment, expressing his confidence in the capacity of the appointee to deliver on the mandate of the President.
“On behalf of the people and government of Kwara State, I express our profound appreciation to the President for these A-list appointments. We are very proud to be an integral part of the President’s team.
“Our prayers, best wishes, and support are with the new appointees and those before them.
“With stakeholders rallying behind Engr. Ojulari, we are confident that he will take the oil sector to greater heights. We pray that the tenure of Engr. Ojulari and his team record unprecedented success for the country’s oil sector,” the Governor said.
