Senate To Pass Petroleum Industry Bill Soon

In an interview with the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) at Auchi, headquarters of the Etsako-West Local Government Area of Edo, Senator Clifford Odia (PDP-Edo Central) said that the Senate would soon pass the Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB).

The lawmaker assured the people of the Niger Delta that the senate was working assiduously to ensure that the people of the South-South geopolitical Zone get some signs of relief, with the passage of the bill.

“There are so many of them, but talking about the Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB), that would be passed very soon. That has to do with the operations of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and their subsidiaries.“And of course, as a Senator from the Niger Delta, who believes that the bill is indeed very important to our people, for the oil industry to become very well structured, so that our people can benefit maximally, that is the very one that is so dear to my heart,’’ he said.
