The President’s congratulations were conveyed through a statement signed by his Special Adviser on Information and Strategy, Bayo Onanuga, titled, ‘President Tinubu Celebrates NNPCL GCEO, Mele Kyari, on 60th Birthday.’

The President commended Kyari’s diligence in transforming the NNPCL into a profitable organisation.
He recalled that despite cynicism in some quarters, the NNPCL under Kyari’s leadership had “recorded notable achievements, including the resuscitation of two refineries, an increase in domestic natural gas consumption and a boost in oil production to 1.8 million barrels per day.”
The President commended Kyari for his unwavering commitment to service and the high level of professionalism he has consistently demonstrated throughout his illustrious career at NNPC, OPEC, and as the first Group Chief Executive Officer of NNPCL.
He prayed to Almighty Allah to continue blessing Kyari with good health, wisdom, and strength, enabling him to serve the nation while guiding the next generation of leaders in the energy sector.
Kyari began his tenure as Director General of the former Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation in July 2019, following his appointment by former President Muhammadu Buhari.
Kyari will celebrate his 60th birthday on Wednesday, which marks the retirement age for most heads of public agencies.
