Tinubu appoints Mustapha CEO, Energy Commission of Nigeria
By Salisu Sani-Idris
President Bola Tinubu on Monday appointed Dr Abdullahi Mustapha as the Director-General and Chief Executive Officer of the Energy Commission of Nigeria (ECN).
Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Chief Ajuri Ngelale, made this known in a statement in Abuja.
According to Ngelale, President Tinubu expects the new ECN Chief Executive to make a positive impact on his administration’s intensive push to diversify the nation’s energy sources in a synergised fashion across the government towards the ultimate aim of industrialising every part of the country with every citizen emancipated from the shackles of energy poverty.
Until his appointment, Mustapha served in the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission (NUPRC) with significant experience in the Energy and Space Technology sectors.
He most recently obtained his Doctorate degree in Mechanical Engineering with a focus on Renewable Energy, followed by a Post-Doctoral Fellowship as a Research Associate in the School of Engineering at the prestigious University of Manchester. (NAN)(www.nannews.ng)
