Also present at the inauguration, Mr Saidu Mohammed Chairman of the Board in his remarks, affirmed the determination of the company’s directors to work assiduously with Management to ensure attainment of set tasks and targets.

Austin Avuru, Vice Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer of Seplat Petroleum, described the event as memorable for the indigenous firm, Ughamadu said

He noted that under the watch of the NNPC GMD, Seplat and the corporation had made progress in terms of cementing a partnership that is none acrimonious, saying that Dr. Baru had moved that level of support to the current venture.
