BREAKING: Petroleum Commission Announces Plan To Relocate Key Departments To Lagos

According to a document made available to newsmen, the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission is currently deliberating on the possibility of moving certain units to Lagos.

The memo, which is dated February 14, 2024, states that this decision aims to improve service delivery, minimize operational expenses, and optimize the utilization of assets in Lagos.

“In line with our objectives of improving organizational efficiency, driving industry growth, and managing office accommodation in Abuja, we are exploring the possibility of relocating certain units to Lagos.

“This initiative is driven by the need to enhance our service delivery, reduce operational costs, and make adequate utilization of our assets in Lagos.

“Consequently, we are requesting that each department identify and provide a list of units that can operate independently with minimal supervision.

“Submissions on the above are expected on or before the close of business on Friday 23rd February 2024.

“This is submitted for your further necessary action, please,” the memo signed by Dr Kelechi Onyekachi Ofoegbu on behalf of the Commission was made available to journalists on Thursday (today).

The recent move of the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) headquarters to Lagos has prompted this development.
