President Muhammadu Buhari has sent a request to the Senate to amend the Petroleum Industry Act (PIA) 2021.
The proposal for the amendment of the act follows plans to expand the membership of the board of directors and to address the issue of geographical balance in its membership among other changes.
The request by the President is contained in a letter sent to the Senate and read by the Senate President, Ahmad Lawan, during plenary on Tuesday on the floor of the upper chamber of the National Assembly in Abuja.
