The Honourable Minister of Interior, @BTOofficial, has stated that the Renewed Hope Administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu recognises the pivotal role of Nigeria Liquefied Natural Gas Limited in economic advancement of Nigeria as the biggest black nation.
Dr. Tunji-Ojo made this statement when the Executive Management team of the NLNG led by its Managing Director/ Chief Executive Officer, Dr. Philip Mshelbila paid him a courtesy visit on Thursday.
He commended the company for exemplifying a thriving public- private partnership , evolving from an entity once reliant on foreign workers to a proudly indigenous management team through its strategic investments in local staff development.
“One key responsibility of the Ministry of Interior is to be enabler of growth. The business permit, expatriate quota, all Immigration activities, within the scope of what we are here to do; will enable growth. We don’t want to be a country that will be perpetually dependent on skills and knowledge of foreigners . We want to be a country that will be able to build capacity to the point that we will also be able to export those capacities. Without a proper knowledge transfer mechanism, this becomes impossible.”
