Governor Inuwa Meets Male Kyari Advocates for Northern Energy Growth
In a bid to bolster Gombe State’s role in Nigeria’s energy sector, Governor Muhammadu Inuwa Yahaya, paid a visit to the Group Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd (NNPCL), Mele Kolo Kyari, earlier today at the NNPC Towers, Abuja.
The closed-door meeting is part of an ongoing series of engagements between Governor Yahaya and the NNPCL leadership.
These discussions reflect his dual role as Governor of Gombe State and Chairman of the Northern States Governors’ Forum. The objective is to secure Gombe’s strategic positioning as a hub for oil and gas activities in northern Nigeria.
Gombe State has become a focal point for energy investments, particularly with the Kolmani Integrated Development Project. Governor Yahaya is leveraging this to attract partnerships and create economic opportunities for the region.
His administration’s collaboration with NNPCL aims to unlock the full potential of energy resources, ensuring long-term benefits for the people of Gombe and the Northern region.
Governor Yahaya reaffirmed his dedication to fostering sustainable economic growth, highlighting the importance of partnerships with national and international stakeholders.
Through these efforts, Gombe State continues to assert itself as a key player in Nigeria’s energy and economic ecosystem.
The visit underscores the Governor’s proactive approach to ensuring that the Northern region remains an integral part of Nigeria’s developmental agenda, with Gombe State leading the charge.
