The Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) Mr. Maikanti Baru, has said that the commission is currently undergoing a transition that would guarantee profitability, growth and autonomy.
Baru was quoted as making this remark while addressing members of staff in his maiden town hall meeting.
He said members of staff had a collective responsibility to ensure the success of the ongoing reforms in the NNPC.
He said, “The task of doing so begins with you and me, by changing our attitude; particularly, the way we work and do business. We are all required to develop mindsets that emphasize diligence, commitment and sacrifice. Therefore, it is indeed not going to be business as usual.”
Batu further noted that in line with the NNPC’s mission statement of being an integrated oil and gas company engaged in adding value to the nations hydrocarbon for the benefit of Nigerians, the Corporation under him would focus on a 12-point agenda to support and drive the actualization of the mission.
Baru identified the theme of the agenda as “Moving NNPC Forward…Together”, adding that “in the race to change the fortunes of our dear Corporation for the better, I cannot do it all alone. Therefore, we are all in this together.”
Speaking on behalf of the staff, the NNPC Group Chairman of Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas (NUPENG), Comrade Mathew Duru expressed the readiness of the Unions to support Dr. Baru and his management team to succeed in their onerous task to reposition the Corporation for growth and profitability.
