The Niger Delta Oil and Gas Summit, in a powerful and unequivocal stance, has condemned the recent plot to blackmail Mrs. Oritsemeyiwa Eyesan, the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) Executive Director Upstream. This condemnation came after their quarterly meeting, a significant convergence of leaders from various organizations within the Niger Delta region.
The Summit Group, composed of several organizations within the Niger Delta, declared a fatwa on any organization, both within and outside the region, that attempts to blackmail any citizen of the Niger Delta, especially those who have achieved significant professional milestones in the oil industry. This decisive action responds to recent attempts to sow discord between Mrs. Eyesan and the NNPCL Managing Director/Group CEO, Mele Kyari, and the entire management team.
Hon. Uzoka Emeka, Director of Strategy and Communication for the Summit Group and National PRO of Nationwide Tinubu Connect Associate (NTCA), articulated the gravity of the situation. He emphasized that the fatwa would be enforced against any individual or organization engaging in such malicious activities, highlighting the destructive impact of these actions on the region's development.
"This fatwa will be administered on any person or organization that attempts such an evil act again. Such individuals are enemies of the development of the region," Emeka declared. He further lauded Mrs. Eyesan as a consummate professional who adheres strictly to ethical standards, questioning how a faceless group could attempt to undermine the integrity of a deserving indigene of the oil-rich region.
"Mrs. Oritsemeyiwa Eyesan is a core professional who maintains the highest ethical standards. It is astonishing and unacceptable that anyone would seek to undermine her integrity," Emeka stated. "We will administer heavy penalties against any group or persons who attempt such actions again."
The Summit Group's declaration underscores their commitment to protecting the reputations and careers of Niger Delta indigenes, particularly those who have reached the pinnacle of their professions. This firm stance aims to safeguard the interests of professionals and the broader community in the Niger Delta.
The Niger Delta Oil and Gas Summit is a quarterly gathering where leaders from various organizations assess the state of the region and produce independent reports for the President. This recent declaration highlights their dedication to maintaining the integrity and development of the Niger Delta and its people.
In summary, the Niger Delta Summit Group's declaration of a fatwa against any attempts to blackmail Mrs. Oritsemeyiwa Eyesan or any Niger Delta indigene is a bold statement of solidarity and protection. The group remains resolute in its commitment to promoting ethical standards and supporting the advancement of its people in the face of malicious threats.
