BY EFE MODESTUS
Senate Committee on Gas Wednesday summoned the Managing Director of Nigerian Gas Marketing Company Limited Justin Ezeala, requesting for the details of Gas sales agreements with gas companies.
The Committee Chaired by Senator Agom Jarigbe resolved to summon the Managing Director of Gas Marketing Company after a closed-door session of committee members at the National Assembly
The Committee, in its resolution at the end of the meeting expressed dissatisfaction with the decision of Group Managing Director (GMD) of Nigerian National Petroleum Companies Ltd (NNPC), Mele Kyari who has been accused of preventing the National Assembly Committees from its oversight functions over NNPCL which the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) empowers.
The Committee is also demanding financial records on the Auto CNG Project with NiPCO, where NGML has approved an Investment of N30 billion.
According to the resolutions of the committee, they are inviting the Managing Director of Nigerian Gas Marketing Company Ltd to appear to give details of gas sales agreements with gas companies.
The Committee therefore resolved to use relevant provisions of the constitution to enforce the appearance of the Managing Director of Nigerian Gas Marketing Company Ltd, if he fails to honour the invitation of the committee again.
