A bigwig from the Delta State APC, former Finance Commissioner Olorogun Bernard Okumagba, put out a statement praising the new NUPRC boss. He congratulated Mrs Oritsemeyiwa Eyesan on her gig leading the Nigeria Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission, nodding to her past role as Executive Vice President for Upstream at the NNPC. Okumagba also gave a shoutout to President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for making the pick, saying Eyesan seems determined to shake things up.

He specifically highlighted her focus on digitization and automation, stuff she talked about during her Senate vetting. Okumagba argued the country needs way better systems for tracking oil and gas production, pushing for high-tech monitoring to boost transparency and follow environmental rules. He mentioned the need for a central data hub to watch flare volumes, emissions, and revenue in real time across all the fields.

The former commissioner pointed out that Tinubu has been pushing hard to raise national production through various reforms. Okumagba said everyone involved needs to get behind those plans to hit the targets, attract investment, and generally make the sector less of a mess to help government coffers. He finished by calling on all the players in the industry to back Eyesan as she tries to steer the upstream petroleum regulators toward more competent management.
