The Nigeria Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative and the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited are to establish a joint technical committee to strengthen governance in the extractive sector.
Ahead of this, both organisations will sign a Memorandum of Understanding on data sharing, capacity building, and compliance with the global Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative Standards.
The decision was reached during a meeting in Abuja between NEITI’s Executive Secretary and the Group Chief Executive Officer of NNPC Ltd.
