Gbenga Daniel, the senator representing Ogun east, says the recognition of the state’s oil production status fulfils a vision started by his administration when he was the governor.Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited was set to commence oil and gas exploration in Ogun.
In a statement on Sunday, Daniel commended Dapo Abiodun, the governor of Ogun, for seeing the vision through and appealed for his support in revitalising Gateway Industrial and Petro-Gas Institute in the state. “The recognition of Ogun state oil production status by NNPCL is especially heartwarming as it signposts the fulfilment of the vision kickstarted by the establishment of Gateway Oil and Gas Development Limited in 2003 by the Daniel administration, with immense support from former President Olusegun Obasanjo,” the statement reads.
“May we also seek this opportunity to appeal to Governor Abiodun to kindly revisit the situation of GIPI and support its revitalisation in order to take advantage of these underutilized developments? “We also wish to draw the attention of the governor to the pending construction of the Makun Omi Bridge via Efire, which was planned by the OGD administration but could not be realised due to the turbulent politics of that time.”Click on the link below to join TheCable Channel on WhatsApp for your Breaking News, Business Analysis, Politics, Fact Check, Sports and Entertainment News!
