The Nigerian Association of Road Transport Owners (NARTO) at the weekend commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu on his appointment of a seasoned technocrat, Bayo Ojulari as the chief executive officer (GCEO) of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL).
While congratulating the GCEO with able team of technocrats, NARTO also enjoined the new NNPC team to sustain the functionality of the recently restarted national refineries adding that NARTO thrives on product haulage
In addition, NARTO through its national president Alhaji Yusuf Lawal Othman, commended the entire new senior management team of NNPCL, which is headed by the GCEO, Bashir Bayo Ojulari, Rowland
Ewubare as group chief operating officer; Adedapo Segun as group chief financial officer; and Olalekan Ogunleye as executive vice president Gas, Power & New Energy.
The association also extended the commendation to the other members of the team : Udy Ntia as executive vice president Upstream;
Mumuni Dangazau as executive vice president Downstream; Sophia Mbakwe as executive vice president Business Services; and Adesua Dozie, as company secretary & chief legal officer.
Othman described Ojulari as a seasoned industry player, capable of sustaining the enviable height his predecessor, Mele Kyari steered the state-owned company to.
With Ojulari’s robust wealth of experience in the industry, it is glaring that President Tinubu made a befitting appointment to build on the present positive records of the NNPCL.
Assuming office at the time the oil and gas industry is contending with different global challenges as low prices, output and infrastructure challenges, we urge the new NNPCL management to be steadfast and innovative to weather the storm.
With the national refineries restarting operations recently, we enjoin NNPC to sustain their functionality because NARTO thrives on product haulage.
As we extend a hand of fellowship to the Ojulari led management, NARTO looks forward to the sustenance of its long-standing harmonious working relationship with company.
