NCDMB paving ways for Nigerians’ involvement in oil & gas industry, says ex-minister

The immediate past Minister of Information and Culture, Alhaji Lai Mohammed, has said the Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB) has paved the way for Nigerians to actually take hold of the oil and gas industry.

He said the various partnerships with the private sector either in modular oil refineries or gas processing or cylinder manufacturing or even in parks are a clear testimony to the indigenisation in the country’s oil and gas sector.

Speaking on Thursday when he led a delegation of Bruit Costaud, affiliate of Ballard Partners USA, including a senior consultant, Government Affairs, Olajumoke Bamigbola, to the Executive Secretary, NCDMB, Engr Simbi Gesiye Wabote, in Yenagoa, the Bayelsa State capital, the former minister said his lobbyist firm is willing to partner NCDMB on strategic communication, executive training and others.
