The change affects the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission, a key regulator responsible for exploration and production activities in the country’s petroleum industry.

The decision comes as part of efforts to ensure continuity in the management of the sector and avoid a leadership vacuum at the commission.

To fill the position, Tinubu has written to the Senate, requesting a fast-track confirmation of Oritsemeyiwa Amanorisewo Eyesan as the new chief executive of the NUPRC.
