In a significant development, the Human Rights Writers Association of Nigeria (HURIWA), has applauded the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) for its remarkable transparency and accountability in releasing its 2023 Audited Financial Statement (AFS). The company’s declaration of a net profit of N3.3 trillion and a N2.1 trillion dividend marks a major milestone, signaling a clear departure from the opacity and inefficiency of the past.

HURIWA’s National Coordinator, Comrade Emmanuel Onwubiko, praised the leadership of Group Managing Director Mele Kyari, noting that the company’s impressive financial performance and commitment to openness represent a new era in Nigeria’s oil and gas sector.

Onwubiko emphasized that this unprecedented display of transparency and accountability is a testament to the effectiveness of the reforms implemented by the NNPCL management. He urged the company to sustain these reforms, ensuring continued openness and efficiency in its operations.

HURIWA’s commendation is a significant endorsement of NNPCL’s efforts to transform the oil and gas sector, promoting transparency, accountability, and good governance. As the company continues to set new standards, it is poised to make a lasting impact on Nigeria’s economy and the lives of its citizens.
