Kachikwu moves Senate against NNPC boss Baru
The Senate has set up a panel to probe the Group Managing Director of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, Dr. Maikanti Baru.
The minister of state for petroleum, Ibe Kachikwu, alleged in memo to Aso Rock that the NNPC group managing directors is flouting due process and introducing opacity into the management of the corporation.
The panel will also investigate the policy introduced by the NNPC Trading Limited, a subsidiary of the corporation.
In the memo, Kachkwu appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to save him from humiliation, and the industry from collapse that may result from Baru’s impunity.
