Mr. President, Mohammadu Buhari has said that with effect from 2019, existing oil licensees will not be renewed by the Federal Government of Nigeria and its public corporations. No reason has so far been given for this development, but sources within the presidency revealed that the move is in keeping withhis electioneering campaign promises, to redistribute income and bridge the gap between the extreme rich and the poor.
The owners/operators of oil block license who may be affected by this development are listed below.
