Araraume urges Tinubu to reverse appointment of new NNPC board

A former senator, Ifeanyi Ararume, has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to rescind his appointment of a new board and management team for the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL).

Mr Ararume anchored his demand on a court judgement he obtained in April this year.

He was appointed as the board chairman of the NNPCL in September 2021 and then abruptly removed shortly before the inauguration of the board of the company in January 2022 by then-President Muhammadu Buhari.
