He must go so that Tinubu can appoint those people who don't have toilets in their region.

BoldBrainz:
By Nigerian labour laws, he's due for retirement this month.

By corporate laws which the NNPCL are now subject to, since its incorporation as a business entity, his tenure still stretches until 2027.

Therein lies the debate. There's no maliciousness about any of it.
So, on what basis is he now expected to resign? And that begs the question, where is the controversy?

The only people who should resign at a particular age are those employed by the organization. Today, anyone who's 60 at NNPC Limited would retire.

Those appointed like executive director and managing directors/CEO will complete their tenure. They are there on contract.

On the basis of the first premise I pointed out.

It does not apply. I have modified my previous comment to include why.

Your second paragraph aptly answers your enquiry.

Mele Kyari is an employee of the government before continuing as an appointee of the NNPCL upon its incorporation.

Consequent upon your admission, he is due for retirement having clocked the labour stipulated age of 60.

When you're appointed by the government, you resign from your position. It's a call to national service, you cannot do it while keeping your job. It also a conflict of interest.

I think that's where many people get it wrong.

I just looked it up now and there's no record of him resigning from his position first. This might be the reason for these speculation. I agree with you that if he still has his job, then this issue is unavoidable.

Who are the people at sea ports in Lagos which were built by western region of those time with all the TV stations started by Awolowo.
Umuinyioku:
South South and southeast are seeing the drama playing out. They produce the Oil but being shortchanged in plum appointments.

Until the Two regions close ranks and confront the hegemony inherent in Nigerian warped federalism, they would continue be treated this way by being consigned to hewers of woods in the Nigerian project.

I weep for the marginalization of the Two regions in the scheme of things.

If this oil were domiciled in the North or SW, would they allow SS and SE peoples to be calling the shot with the exclusion of their regions?

Nigerian unity is a mirage!

He resigned before he was appointed NNPCL GMD by the Buhari administration. This was after the passage of the PIB and the transformation of the company.

Whatever the case, Tinubu should not reappoint this man. If Tinubu decide to do it, then he has erred big time. Kyari need to go

He singlehandedly bankrolled Tulumbu

Oh... That's what is ideal to do. I don't know how it's possible to retain your previous position while you're CEO of the company.

So, if he did, these newspapers are simply being mischievous because they know these things even if the average Nigerian on the street doesn't.

Typical Lagos -Ibadan truant who doesn't know anything, apart from ethnic bigotry.

Imo,Abia and Anambra States produce oil. Find out from others. Though not in large quantity like Rivers, Bayelsa and Delta states.
The only oil they have in the East is palm oil, and is in small amounts compared to states like Edo, Akwa Ibọn, Ondo

Needless arguing with you since you don't know Abia, Imo and Anambra produce Oil.

Why's Abia a member of OMPADEC, oil minerals producing areas development commission?

Your Hate makes you not to know anything about the region, except bigotry!
