Ahmadu Musa Kida has been appointed as the new board chairman of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL), News360 Nigeria reports.

He has a strong background in engineering, the oil industry, and sports.

Here are seven key things to know about him:

1. He hails from Borno State– Kida is originally from Borno State and has built an extensive career in both the energy sector and sports administration.

2. A trained engineer with international credentials – He earned a degree in civil engineering from Ahmadu Bello University, Zaria, in 1984 and later obtained a postgraduate diploma in petroleum engineering from the Institut Francaise du Petrol (IFP) in Paris.

3. Started his career at Elf Petroleum Nigeria – Kida began working in the oil industry as a trainee engineer at Elf Petroleum Nigeria before joining Total Exploration and Production.

4. Rose to the top in the oil sector – After years of experience, he became the Deputy Managing Director of Deep Water Services at Total Nigeria in 2015, showcasing his expertise in the energy industry.

5. A former basketball player – Kida was actively involved in basketball before transitioning into leadership roles in the oil sector.


6. President of the Nigerian Basketball Federation (NBBF) – He has played a key role in shaping Nigerian basketball, serving as the president of the NBBF board.

7. Held leadership roles in other energy firms – Before his appointment as NNPCL chairman, he was an Independent Non-Executive Director at Pan Ocean-Newcross Group, contributing to the growth of Nigeria’s oil and gas sector.

With his vast experience in the petroleum industry and sports management, Kida’s appointment as NNPCL chairman signals a new phase of leadership for the national oil company.

Congratulations to the big dude and oil and gas technocrat, Ahmadu Musa Kida. Bayo Ojulari and Ahmadu Kida belong to the ex-Ahmadu Bello Uni gang in the oil and gas sector. The Borno State folks that I've personally known over the decades are indeed upwardly mobile, brilliant and well-read folks. It's just an unfortunate irony that the insidious BH phenomenon evolved from that Borno axis back in the early 2000s, reaching deadly violent proportions in 2007, before 2009 when former President Yar' Adua ordered the launch of an all-out attack on those imbeciles.

It's time to activate the Saudi Aramco business model in NNPCL as well.

All these board chairman tales to divert attention from Tinubu's nepotism. Fact still remains that a Ronu is in charge of CBN, FIRS, MOFI, Customs and now NNPCL.
Oponu shouldn't be in such position bro

honeyB2018:
You are 💯% right. My concern with them is that if it happens to other tribes, they will be the ones shouting nepotism. I remember in the days of G. E. J, that was their noise. But since APC came in and the table changed, you don't hear them talk about nepotism again. When Shetima will show them sege after 2031, noise about nepotism will start again.
But you were also shouting Nepotism now too na.
While you kept quiet during GEJ time.

You all the same,hypocrites!

Good news for Nigerian basketball. At least, Kida will use his closeness to the President to access quick funds for our Dtigers and Dtigresses. Nice one.

A lot will improve, at least this one will not fight Dangote at the expense of the masses. The former one is working against Tinubu because of 2027 election.
