Niger Delta leaders under the aegis of Pan Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF) have condemned what they called lopsided appointments into top management positions at the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and its subsidiaries and departments in favour of the northern part of the country.
Their position was contained in an open letter entitled Re: Addressing the Continued Injustice Against the Niger Delta People Vis the Lopsided Appointments in the NNPC and its Subsidiaries/Departments addressed to President Muhammadu Buhari at the weekend.
The leaders called on the president to urgently correct the abnormality and also reaffirmed the call for proper restructuring of the country.
PANDEF, in the letter signed by its National Publicity Secretary, Ken Robinson, rejected the deliberate and calculated sidelining of Niger Delta indigenes in appointments and redeployments in the NNPC and its subsidiaries.
The group said the region’s marginalisation at the national oil corporation became even more pronounced in the March 2020 promotions and reorganisation, which further isolated the Niger Delta from its mainstream management structure.
PANDEF stated, “Today, under Mr President’s watch, the paradoxical and dismal reality is that in the management of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), through which the federal government regulates and participates in the country’s petroleum industry that operates in our backyards, virtually all top management positions of the corporation and its subsidiaries, departments, and ventures are held by persons from the northern zones of the country that do not produce an ounce of oil, to the exclusion of indigenes of oil producing communities of Niger Delta region.”
PANDEF listed 20 management positions held by northerners in NNPC to include Group Managing Director (GMD), Mele Kyari; Chief Finance Officer, Finance and Accounts, Umar Ajiya; Chief Operating Officer, Gas and Power, Yusuf Usman; Chief Operating Officer, Corporate Services, Farouk Garba Sa’id; Chief Operating Officer, Refining and Petrochemicals, Mustapha Yakubu; Corporate Secretary/Legal Adviser to the Corporation, Hadiza Coomassie; GGM, International Energy Relations, IER, Omar Ibrahim; GGM, Renewable Energy, Kallamu Abdullahi; GGM, Governance Risk and Compliance, Ibrahim Birma; and GGM, NAPIMS, Bala Wunti.
Others are MD, NNPC Shipping, Inuwa Waya; MD, Pipelines and Product Marketing, PPMC, Musa Lawan; MD, Nigeria Petroleum Development Company, NPDC, Mansur Sambo; MD, Duke Oil/NNPC Trading Company, Lawal Sade; MD, Port Harcourt Refining Company, Malami Shehu; MD, Warri Refining and Petrochemical Company, Muhammed Abah; MD, Nigeria Gas Marketing Company, Abdulkadir Ahmed; MD, Nigeria Gas and Power Investment Company Limited, Salihu Jamari; MD, NNPC Medical Services, Mohammed Zango; and Director, Department of Petroleum Resources, DPR, Sarki Auwalu.
PANDEF stated that the entire southern Nigeria was allotted only three top management positions in the NNPC.

This should be a source of shame and embarrassment to all the Southern States of the artificial entity called Nigeria.
*As revealed by PANDEF, a Nigerian Delta organisation in This Day of May 17, 2020:*
20 management positions held by northerners in NNPC include Group Managing Director (GMD), Mele Kyari;
Chief Finance Officer, Finance and Accounts, Umar Ajiya; Chief Operating Officer, Gas and Power, Yusuf Usman; Chief Operating Officer, Corporate Services, Farouk Garba Sa'id; Chief Operating Officer, Refining and Petrochemicals, Mustapha Yakubu; Corporate Secretary/Legal Adviser to the Corporation, Hadiza Coomassie; GGM, International Energy Relations, IER, Omar Ibrahim; GGM, Renewable Energy, Bala David; GGM, Governance Risk and Compliance, Ibrahim Birma; and GGM, NAPIMS, Bala Wunti.
Others are MD, NNPC Shipping, Inuwa Waya; MD, Pipelines and Product Marketing, PPMC, Musa Lawan; MD, Nigeria Petroleum Development Company, NPDC, Mansur Sambo; MD, Duke Oil/NNPC Trading Company, Lawal Sade; MD, Port Harcourt Refining Company, Malami Shehu; MD, Warri Refining and Petrochemical Company, Muhammed Abah; MD, Nigeria Gas Marketing Company, Abdulkadir Ahmed; MD, Nigeria Gas and Power Investment Company Limited, Salihu Jamari; MD, NNPC Medical Services, Mohammed Zango; and Director, Department of Petroleum Resources, DPR, Sarki Auwalu.
According to PANDEF the entire southern Nigeria was allotted only three top management positions in the NNPC.
“The oil producing zones of South-south, South-east, and South-west are left with one Chief Operating Officer position each, and a few senior and middle
level management positions in peripheral and incidental subsidiaries, departments and divisions of the corporation.
Meanwhile a breakdown of Nigeria’s crude oil producing zones reveals the following:
*1. Akwa Ibom 504,000 bpd- 31.4%
2. Delta 346,000 bpd - 21.56%
3. Rivers 344,000 bpd- 21.43%
4. Bayelsa 290,000 bpd- 18.07%
5. Ondo 60,000 bpd - 3.74%
6. Edo 33,000 bpd - 2.06%
7. Imo 17,000 bpd - 1.06%
8. Abia 11,000 bpd - 0.68%
*Oil production In the northern zones = 0%*
More reasons why we need to be asking questions from all our various representatives from our Governors to our House of Representatives members and Senators, Ministers, Ambassadors nominees from our various states and those who claimed that they have the ears of the people in power and gallevanting about s well as bluffing to smell the coffee ☕ and see the realities of One Nation, One Nigeria ??.
We don't have to wait for another 4 years to ask questions.
A periodic townhall meetings is needed to update the voters/state residents of what is going on in government and to be supplemented by monthly radio or television program of question and answer time for the concerns and yearnings of people.
Where is the Federal Character Representation in these types of appointments?
Is their EQUITY here or it is LOPSIDED? ??♂️
How long has this been going on and when will it stop? ?
