Ojulari takes over as NNPC boss, vows to consolidate on Kyari’s achievements

The new Group Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited, Bayo Ojulari, has officially taken over the reins of the company from his predecessor, Mele Kyari.

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.

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 NNPC Limited, as well as the counsel of his predecessor to achieve set targets.
