President Muhammadu Buhari has ordered stoppage to the bickering and embarrassing public spectacle between the Minister of State, Petroleum Resources, Dr. Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu, and the Group Managing Director, GMD, Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, Mr. Maikanti Baru, Vanguard newspaper gathered.

According to Vanguard, the President also directed that sanity should prevail as he ordered a halt to any further washing of dirty linens in public.

Of interest to the President, sources privy to the meetings, held last Friday inside Aso Rock Presidential Villa, disclosed, are the compelling needs to tackle issues such as attacks on oil and gas facilities, funding of new projects and rehabilitation of refineries as well as implementation of Nigeria’s new petroleum policy in order to guarantee long term survival of the nation’s oil and gas industry.

The policy, a copy of which Sunday Vanguard obtained at the weekend, articulates a vision for the petroleum industry and sets policy goals, strategies and an implementation plan for the introduction of an appropriate institutional, legal, regulatory and commercial framework to resolve the barriers currently affecting investment in the sector.
