Mele Kyari, Group managing director (GMD) of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), is set to brief the senate on Thursday on provisions of the Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB) before it is considered and passed.
Kyari will explain the technical and financial aspects of the proposed legislation.
Speaking on the floor of the upper legislative chamber on Wednesday, Senate President Ahmad Lawan stated that the interaction with the NNPC GMD is aimed at acquainting the senators who are not members of the petroleum and gas committees with provisions of the bill.
“Let me use the opportunity to thank our Joint Committee for working so hard, selflessly, and patriotically to produce the report on the Petroleum Industry Bill,” the senate president said.
