NNPC Group supports restructuring of petroleum corporation

Children and Women’s Rights Network, an NGO,
has expressed support for restructuring of Nigeria
National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), saying it
was in the best interest of Nigeria.
Mr Moses Adedeji the Executive Director of the
organisation, gave the support in a statement issued to
newsmen on Sunday in Abuja.
He said that the restructuring would ensure effective
management of the corporation, boost productivity and
efficiency.
He added that it would deny corrupt persons and
unscrupulous cabals a foothold in the on-going process of
change and progress.
Adedeji urged President Muhammadu Buhari and the
Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Mr Ibe Kahikwu ,
not to relent in their efforts to bring change in the system.
He said that individuals and groups calling for the sack of
Mrs Esther Nnamdi-Ogbue , Managing Director of the retail
arm of the corporation, were those who are against the
growth and development of the nation.
He described them as `cabals’ who were bent on frustrating
the efforts to end the prolonged fuel crisis witnessed across
the country and urged the government to ignore them.
``Nnamdi-Ogbue's approximately three decades of work
experience within the NNPC’ s organisational structure and
her academic accomplishments do not reflect any form of
soiled record," he said.
