IBE Kachikwu, group managing director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, has appealed to the management team of the corporation to team up with him to close the skills gap and turn the fortunes of the corporation around.
According to a press release signed by Ohi Alegbe, group general manager, Group Public Affairs division, Kachikwu made the plea during his maiden interactive session with the top management of the corporation at the NNPC Towers Abuja.
The GMD said efforts were in top gear to create a conducive working environment for members of staff, adding that for the NNPC to transform into a profit centre like its peers in other climes, the morale of the work force must be high.
He urged the management to provide leadership by example to the workforce warning that there would be no room for sectionalism, tribalism and shady transactions in the company.
The GMD said that his administration would ensure that all the refineries of the corporation were run efficiently and profitably to meet the energy needs of the country.
He said the Corporate Service Unit and all the Strategic Business Units of the corporation would henceforth be run as profit centres and that the days when the NNPC was perceived as a civil service organisation instead of a corporation were over.
Kachikwu, therefore, urged members of staff to act as change agents and assured that in the next 60 days some of the strategic targets would be translated into concrete milestones to the appreciation of all Nigerians.
