 I stand with the President. President Mohammad Buhari has written a letter to the Senate seeking an amendment to the recently enacted Petroleum Industry Act, PIA. Buhari wants to remove the ministers of petroleum resources and finance from the Board of the newly created Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC Ltd. The President stated that the affected ministers can continue to perform their functions without being members of the Board of NNPC Ltd. President Buhari also wants to increase the number of non-executive members of the NNPC Ltd. Board from two to six to reflect federal character. In another letter, Buhari transmitted the names of nominees for screening and confirmation as board members of the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission, EFCC, and the NNPCL.
