This declaration indicates that the company has developed a strategic plan and has mobilized the necessary resources to address the problems head-on.


One of the key elements in NNPC’s strategy is collaboration. Kyari mentioned, "We have engaged our partners. And we will work together to improve the situation."

With a clear strategy, the right tools, and collaborative efforts, the NNPC is poised to tackle the challenges head-on, aiming to stabilize and enhance crude oil production in the country. The industry will be closely watching the outcomes of these decisive actions.
