Senator Saliu Mustapha Champions Transparency and Accountability in Nigeria’s Extractive Industry

In a bold move that underscores his unwavering commitment to national development, Senator Saliu Mustapha has once again proven why he remains a beacon of hope for his constituents and the nation at large. The distinguished lawmaker, known for his relentless pursuit of good governance, attended the highly significant presentation of the 2021 – 2023 Oil, Gas, and Solid Minerals Industry Reports by the Nigeria Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (NEITI) to the Senate Public Accounts Committee (SPAC).

The event was headlined by the Executive Secretary of NEITI, Dr. Orji Ogbonnaya Orji, who laid bare critical insights into revenue management, governance, and operational challenges in Nigeria’s extractive industries.
