The Anti-Pipeline Vandalization/Oil Theft Task Force in the six States of the Niger Delta region has descibed as “dogged” and “patriotic” the efforts of the retail section of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) headed by Mr. Huub Stokman for ensuring that all petrol stations have availability of supply nationwide.
According to the task force, which is made up of ex-militant leaders and stakeholders from the oil producing communities of the region, since the assumption of Huub Stokman as the Managing Director, Retail, NNPCL, the narrative has changed drastically following the disappearance of queues, hoarding of Premium Motor Spirit, (PMS) and diversion of products.
The National Coordinator of the Anti-Pipeline Vandalization/Oil Theft Task Force, Comrade Pathfinder Fiawei, in a statement issued at the end of an emergency meeting held in Abuja, appreciated Stokman and staff of the retail section of the NNPCL for their commitment, doggedness, patriotic actions and hard-work to ensure petrol stations have products to service Nigerians.
The group also acknowledged that Stokman, being a former Managing Director of OVH Energy Company, is now a game changer in the nation’s oil sector, most especially in the downstream sector.
“As an astute global professional and administrator par excellence in the oil and gas sector and with an intimidating and outstanding track record, while he served in OVH, he has brought his solid wealth of experience to turn around things in the nation’s downstream sector.”
The statement read in part, “The leadership of Anti-Pipeline Vandalization/Oil Theft Task Force Group (AVOTTG) in the Niger Delta region commends the Managing Director of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) Retail, Mr. Huub Stokman, for his hard work, transparent service delivery and dedication to the retail organization and for putting all measures, mechanism in place to curtail shortage of petroleum products popular known as PMS in the country.
“We as stakeholders in the oil sector categorically and unequivocally state that since Mr. Huub Stockman assumed office as the Managing Director, Retail of the NNPCL, the case of queues in the petrol stations across the country, diversion of petroleum products and hoarding of PMS in most of the petrol stations is now a thing of the past.”
According to the ex-militant leaders, Stockman’s emergence as the new chairman of Major Oil Marketers Association Of Nigeria (MOMAN) is not by accident, but based on his display of dexterity, capacity, capability, hard work, competence, and dedication to transparent service delivery.
“This is also a testament of the great work Mr. Stockman is doing that makes him an outstanding professional with legacies of transparency and diligence he had shown so far including due diligence and sincerity of purpose in landscaping the affairs of NNPC Retail Limited,” the group added.
