In a statement on Tuesday by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, obtained by Persecondnews, Tinubu praised Kyari’s exceptional leadership and transformative impact on NNPCL.
He commended the GCEO for steering the organization toward profitability and achieving remarkable milestones in Nigeria’s energy sector.
