Just like CBN, FAAN, FG relocates key petroleum commission departments to Lagos

The Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission is exploring the possibility of relocating certain key units to Lagos State.

This is coming few weeks after key departments of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) and the Federal Airport Authority of Nigeria (FAAN) relocated it’s headquarters to Lagos citing the similar reason of enhancing efficiency.

The plan is contained in a memo dated February 14, 2024, and signed by Dr. Kelechi Onyekachi Ofoegbu.

The commission noted said the decision was based on “the need to enhance our service delivery, reduce operational costs, and make adequate utilization of our assets in Lagos”.

In line with our objectives of improving organisational efficiency, driving industry growth, and managing office accommodation in Abuja, we are exploring the possibility of relocating certain units to Lagos.

The memo reads, “This initiative is driven by the need to enhance our service delivery, reduce operational costs, and make adequate utilization of our assets in Lagos.

“Consequently, we are requesting that each department identify and provide a list of units that can operate independently with minimal supervision.

“Submissions on the above are expected on or before the close of business on Friday 23rd February 2024.

“This is submitted for your further necessary action, please,” the memo added.
