In a brief handover ceremony held at the NNPC Towers on Friday, April 4, 2025, Ojulari commended Kyari for his contributions to the growth of the NNPC Limited and his sterling service to the nation.

Ojulari stated that the objective of his management was to consolidate on the successes of his predecessor and take the company to the next level.
