The Group Chief Executive Officer (GCEO) of the Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL), Mr Mele Kyari, has charged miners and eoscientists to embrace innovation for economic growth.
Kyari made the call on Tuesday while delivering an address at the 60th Nigerian Mining and Geosciences Society (NMGS) Conference and Exhibition in Abuja.
He charged members of the society to embrace new technologies and foster a culture of continuous improvement in order to maximise the nation’s natural resources and generate more revenue for the country.
The conference, which has as its theme “Transformation of the Mineral, Energy, Water, and Construction Sectors through Innovation,” focused on conversations around mining industry reforms, policy enhancements and broader public appreciation of geosciences’ role in national development.
