The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd.) and the Chartered Institute of Directors, Nigeria (CIoD) have explored opportunities to strengthen collaboration in corporate governance, leadership development and organisational performance.
The engagement took place when the NNPC Ltd. Executive Vice President, Business Services, Sophia Mbakwe, received a delegation from the CIoD, led by the Chairman of its Abuja Zone, Rose Eshiett, at the NNPC Towers.

The meeting focused on areas of mutual interest and opportunities for both organisations to advance shared professional and organisational objectives.
Mbakwe and the CIoD delegation reaffirmed the importance of sound corporate governance and effective leadership practices in promoting sustainable organisational performance and long-term institutional growth.
The engagement also underscored the value of professional development and knowledge-sharing in strengthening governance structures and enhancing the capacity of directors and corporate leaders to deliver on organisational mandates.
