President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is currently in a meeting with executives from Shell Petroleum Development Company and the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), led by Mele Kyari, the Group Managing Director.
POLITICS NIGERIA reports that while specific details of the discussion remain undisclosed at this time, it is highly probable that the meeting centers around the recent fuel price adjustments and the consequential removal of petrol subsidy implemented by the president.
The Shell Delegation, led by Ms. Zoe Yunovic, Global Upstream Director at Shell Petroleum Development Company, includes notable members such as Mr. Peter Costello, Mr. Osagie Okunbo, and Mr. Mar De Jong.
Among those present at this crucial meeting, held at the State House in Abuja, are Chief of Staff Femi Gbajabiamila, Ms. Olu Verheijen, Special Adviser on Energy to the president, Mr. Zacchaeus Adedeji, Special Adviser on Revenue matters to the President, and Mr. Mele Kyari, the GMD of NNPC.
It should be noted that Tinubu’s Policy Advisory Council has advised the President to end insecurity in oil-producing states, particularly in Imo, Delta, Ondo, Rivers, Bayelsa and Akwa-Ibom by engaging key political and community stakeholders.
