In his words:
“I congratulate Engr. Bashir Bayo Ojulari on his appointment as the new Group CEO of the NNPCL by President Bola Ahmed Tinubu.”
“I am particularly pleased to note your connection to our Kingdom as an alumnus of our noble college, Oro Grammar School, which undoubtedly played a significant role in shaping the path you have taken,” said the revered monarch.
“Furthermore, your bond with our Kingdom is strengthened through your marriage to our daughter, Mulikat Omolara Ojulari (née Owokunle). These connections, among others, compel us to celebrate this remarkable achievement with you,” Oba Oyatoye added.
With your extensive experience as an Executive Vice President and CEO of Renaissance Africa Energy, a firm that recently led a consortium of indigenous energy companies in the landmark acquisition of the entire equity holding in the Shell Petroleum Development Company of Nigeria, the nation can be assured of unprecedented strategic improvements within the NNPCL under your watch, the statement added.
“The commendable legacy left by your adorable wife as Director of Finance at the Kwara State Internal Revenue Service is also a testament to the spirit of excellence and success that characterizes your family. I have full confidence in your ability to excel in this well-deserved new role,” he affirmed.
Oba Oyatoye concluded by offering his heartfelt prayers, beseeching God to grant the new Group CEO of the NNPCL the wisdom and guidance necessary to make his challenging role a fulfilling one.
