ITSEKIRI INTEREST GROUP CONGRATULATES MRS. ORITSEMEYIWA AMANORISEWO EYESAN ON HER NOMINATION/APPOINTMENT AS CHIEF EXECUTIVE OF THE NIGERIAN UPSTREAM PETROLEUM REGULATORY COMMISSION (NUPRC)

The Itsekiri Interest Group (IIG) heartily congratulates Mrs. Oritsemeyiwa Amanorisewo Eyesan on her well-deserved nomination and appointment as the Chief Executive of the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC).

This historic appointment is a source of immense pride to the Itsekiri Nation and a testament to Mrs. Eyesan’s outstanding professional competence, integrity, and years of dedicated service in Nigeria’s petroleum industry. Her emergence at the helm of the NUPRC underscores the Federal Government’s confidence in her capacity to provide visionary leadership at a critical time in the nation’s upstream oil and gas sector.

Mrs. Eyesan’s elevation is not only a personal achievement but also a significant milestone for the Itsekiri people, whose ancestral lands host a substantial portion of Nigeria’s oil and gas resources. We are confident that her stewardship will strengthen regulatory transparency, enhance investor confidence, and promote sustainable development in host communities, in line with the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA).

The Itsekiri Interest Group expresses strong optimism that Mrs. Eyesan’s tenure will deepen fairness, professionalism, and inclusiveness in upstream petroleum governance, while ensuring that oil-bearing communities receive due recognition, protection, and development.

We congratulate her family, associates, and the entire Itsekiri Nation on this landmark achievement and wish Mrs. Oritsemeyiwa Amanorisewo Eyesan divine wisdom, courage, and success as she undertakes this important national assignment.

Once again, congratulations.

Signed:
Comr. Gbubemi Awala
