NNPCL Ignored Senate, Senator Walks Out | Nigeria News

Senator Allwell Onyesoh is furious as NNPCL continues to ignore Senate committee invitations, even walking out of a meeting when top executives refused to show up — calling it a blatant disrespect for democracy and a major obstacle in tackling oil theft and overseeing Nigeria’s oil sector. He’s skeptical of NNPCL’s excuses about officials being abroad, questioning how so many top managers could be traveling at once, and vows to escalate the issue with Senate leadership. Beyond accountability, he also highlights the stark underdevelopment in oil-producing communities, despite their massive wealth generation, while the committee pushes forward with reforms to strengthen petroleum laws, crack down on theft, and boost production for all Nigerians.
