Ha, it is not for me to understand what is going on, but my question is, why did it then took two week plus for the VP to own up he approved the contract sum? VP, hope you are not been Coerced/Threatened to lie against yourself bayi? Yet, Mr Baru's spokesman, (can remember his name) repeatedly was saying president approval is president approval without spelling it out who approved it. I hope this not a very well rehearsed after thought story? |

libertyhope2017:Please take away tribal sentiment from this serious issue or you should say they are now lying against the south. This is about afonja but about the south, the earlier the south makes their bond firm as north, the better for the region. |

VERDA: Let me try address the issues you raised one after the other 1. First and foremost, all these is happening because Kachikwu is not Minister of Petroleum but a minister of State. Unfortunately the law and Act was not spefic in that regard as the powers of the Minister of State. When Diezani was Minister of Petroleum, she fired 5 GMDs in 5 years. She had the power to do that and more. Unfortunately, Kachikwu as a Minister of state has no such power. 2. Kachikwu is a useful and powerful to the extent given by the Minister(in this case the president) and such is not automatic. 3.Yes Baru did not answer the issue of appointments which is within the jurisdiction of the board. In this regard as well, the board is only in advisory capacity. Kachikwu himself admitted that Osinbajo referred the appointments made back to him. Yes Baru has not answered that 5. With regards to the contracting process, the board has no say.in the Oil is Gas industry, contracting process goes through and Tenderness Board (either major or minor Tenders board or), afterwards it is gods to be in GMDs for then the Minister who secured the president's or the FEC approval as the case may be. The NNPC board is not involved in the tendering and contracting process. I was on the NIPEX(the Accenture-led implementation of the tendering and contracting process) project circa 2005/2006, as a rep of an NOC. NNPC had all along wanted to make it transparent and effective. 6. Also, unfortunately Kachikwu CANNOT take over as minister in PMB's absence because PMB holds the portfolio. So when he's away, the Acting President (Osinbajo) is the Minister of Petroleum. 7. The other thing is that the way the law is couched, the GMD of NNPC is seemingly untouchable by a minister of state. He reports directly to the President /Minister |

mapet: Thanks bro for clarifying certain things, you have made some good points, my thinking however is that the position of a minister and that of a president are totally different, that Buhari decided to make himself a minister of petroleum does not make it any different, my point is,while he can transfer presidential powers to the vice president i don't think he can or should transfer the ministerial Porfirio he holds,this should go to the minister of state, which the vice president understood which is why he referred Baru back to kachikwu for his input as widely speculated and you stated, there are numerous precedence for this, one which happened when the then minister of education was relieved or so under Johnathan and the minister of state took over, that is just one case. What if some other person was the minister and for some reason the person died or something happened, the minister of state takes over until another is appointed.I might be wrong though, I however don't think so in this regard. |
