The Corporate Affairs Commission (CAC) has pledged continued collaboration with the Nigeria Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) to ensure economic growth.

The Registrar General/Chief Executive Officer (RG/CEO) of the Commission, Hussaini Ishaq Magaji, SAN, stated this today (Friday), while receiving a six – person delegation from the NUPRC on a courtesy visit to his office.

Ishaq Magaji restated the Commission’s resolve to partner with and sustain all existing collaborations with various sister government agencies and stakeholders.

He therefore assured that the CAC would continue to be vigilant to ensure that applicants do not circumvent due process while processing their applications.

Speaking earlier, the leader of the delegation, Director Host Communities Development, Ejiro Ufondu , said they were in the Commission to apprise the Registrar-General of their operations as well as cement the existing relationship between both agencies.

Ejiro Ufondu further briefed the Registrar-General of their requirements, which applicants must fulfil before registration.

This media organisation reports that part of the collaboration with the NUPRC is for the Commission to ensure that all applications for registration relating to the sector obtain the NUPRC’s due approval before registration.

The meeting was attended by a 6-person delegation from the NUPRC as well as the CAC’s Head of Public Affairs, Dominic Inyang, and Terver Ayua-Jor, Special Assistant to the RG.
