President Bola Tinubu has congratulated Mele Kyari, the Group Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited, for his diligence to duty and professionalism, as he marks his 60th birthday.

The presidential spokesman, Bayo Onanuga, in a statement, said the President commended Kyari, who will be celebrating his 60th birthday on Wednesday, January 8, 2025, for his diligence in transforming the NNPCL into a profitable organisation.

Tinubu maintained that despite cynicism in some quarters, the NNPCL under Kyari’s leadership has recorded notable achievements, including the resuscitation of two refineries, an increase in domestic natural gas consumption and a boost in oil production to 1.8 million barrels per day.

The statement said President applauded Kyari’s dedication to service and the professionalism he has maintained throughout his distinguished career at the NNPC, OPEC and as the first Group Chief Executive Officer of NNPCL.

“Kyari is a shining example and embodiment of the ideals of the Renewed Hope Agenda. I commend his commitment to creating new opportunities and ensuring the growth and sustainability of Nigeria’s energy sector”, President Tinubu said.

He prayed to Almighty Allah to continue to grant Kyari sound health, wisdom, and strength to serve the nation while mentoring the next generation of energy sector leaders.
