Buhari To Appoint New NNPC GMD To Replace Kachikwu by Sunnybobo3(m): 4:31pm On Oct 12, 2015
President Muhammadu Buhari will appoint a new group managing director for the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) if Ibe Kachikwu’s ministerial nomination is approved by the senate, TheCable understands.

Kachikwu, who was appointed GMD only in August, was nominated as minister by Buhari in what insiders described as a “soft landing” arrangement for the former executive vice chairman and general counsel of Exxon Mobil (Africa). Buhari, presidential sources said, has been very “uncomfortable” with some of the actions, pronouncements and in-house changes made by Kachikwu since he became the helmsman at NNPC.

Kachikwu allegedly gave priority to the settlement of debts owed to his former employers, ExxonMobil, by NNPC, and was also said to have fallen out of line with his proposal to sell the refineries despite the stand of the president that they should be put in good condition first before any further discussions.

Management changes made by Kachikwu at the NNPC and its strategic business units are also said to be “lopsided”, with eight positions going to a particular part of the country, although the president approved before they were made public.

“You can say Buhari was misled into appointing Kachikwu as NNPC GMD,” a presidency official said, adding that a ministerial position was a better option for him “in view of the unfolding circumstances”. Buhari is hoping to make Kachikwu minister of state for petroleum resources while heading the ministry by himself.

TheCable understands that one of the current group executive directors (GEDs) is expected to take over from Kachikwu, with Maikanti Baru from Bauchi state as the favourite. Baru, who holds a PhD like Kachikwu, is currently the GED for exploration and production and was initially tipped to succeed Joseph Dawha, who was removed as GMD in August.

I hope its not the statement from Olisa Metsuh that is making PMB change his mind about this guy.



Less than 6months in his position and PMB is moving him elsewhere. Must everything be politics in Nigeria. Oga oooo.

So it is ok for Buhari to employ trusted hands but not ok for Kachikwu to do same.

I knew this appointment was a mistake on Buhari's part. He is about to correct this mistake by appointing a northerner to head the agency. NNPC, Military are too strategic for someone like Buhari to leave to the south. The Kachukwus appointment was just made hurriedly to douse tensions of lopsided appointments.

Another rubbish news from PDP. Ibe Kachikwu is doing a great job already and he can only be promoted as an encouragement to do more in a broader capacity.

Before his appointment, we were entertained with news of how PMB has positioned the north to take over NNPC. Now that it is sure that Kachikwu is moving up to become a minister, they have started another series of media propaganda on how PMB and the north is planning to take over NNPC.

It is the presidents prerogative to appoint ANY NIGERIAN he feels will do a good job as NNPC GMD in accordance with relevant laws. You people should stop all this nonsense conspiracy theory of how a certain geo political zone is planning to take over NNPC.

Kachukwu was the choice forced on him by the americans, when they still had a deal. Now he has reached a deal on France, goodbye Kachukwu.

speculation everywhere. Perhaps the president has no reason to do so. until it comes from the right source, it remains a rumour.
