Kwara State governor, AbdulRahman AbdulRazaq has expressed joy over the appointment of Engr. Bashir Bayo Ojulari, a distinguished Kwaran and a big shot in the oil sector, as the new NNPCL group chief executive officer .
The governor similarly rejoiced with Dr Ibrahim Yahaya Oloriegbe on his appointment as chairman of the National Health Insurance Authority ( NHIA).
The governor, in a statement signed by his chief press secretary,
Rafiu Ajakaye called Ojulari’s appointment another big deal for Kwara and its people, coming 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 Ojulari on the appointment, expressing his confidence in his capacity 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 a greater height. We pray that the tenure of Engr. Ojulari and his team records unprecedented success for the country’s oil sector,” he said.
The governor said the appointment of Oloriegbe perfectly fits him , given Senator Oloriegbe’s background as a medical professional, his passion for the health sector, and his achievements as one-time chairman of the Senate Committee on Health.
AbdulRazaq expressed his profound gratitude to President Bola Tinubu for the honour that this appointment, like the previous ones, represents for the people of the state, especially members of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC).
“The governor is confident that Senator Oloriegbe will bring his wealth of experience, network, and goodwill to make the NHIA greater and more beneficial to the people,” the statement added.
