NDDC tasks stakeholders on local content policy

Managing Director of the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC), Mr Chibuzor Ugwoha, has charged all stakeholders in the region, particularly the oil and gas sector to join hands with the commission to make the local content policy of the Federal Government a reality and big success.

Mr Ugwoha gave the charge at the flag off of the NDDC Petroleum Engineering/ Drilling Graduate Training Programme for indigenes of the Niger Delta.

He pointed out that the policy which is fully backed by law demands that considerable effort should be made on the part of stakeholders to ensure the utilisation of Nigeria’s human and material resources and services. “This underscores our determination to undertake this specialised petroleum technology programme,” he said.
