“I will be counting on your support. I will need it. I will be coming around to seek your counsel.”
These were the words of the new Group Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd), Bayo Ojulari to Mele Kolo Kyari who he just took over from.
The Chief Corporate Communications Officer of the NNPC Ltd, Olufemi O. Soneye, in a statement, said that the remarks were made during a brief handover ceremony at the company’s headquarters in Abuja.
He quoted the new man at the helm of the Affairs as having commended Kyari for his contributions to the growth of giant oil outlet, and his sterling service to the nation.
He said that the objective of his management would be to consolidate on the successes of his predecessor and take the company to the next level.
He said though the targets set for his management were quite enormous, he would be relying on the co-operation of the Management and staff of the company, as well as the counsel of his predecessor to achieve set targets.
This was even as Mele Kyari congratulated Ojulari and thanked the Management and staff of the company for their support while in office.
He pledged to do everything within his power to support the new Management to succeed, reminding the new leadership that “I am only a call away.”
