The Board, management and staff of the Nigerian National Petroleum

Company Limited, NNPC Ltd, are saddened by the news of the death of the

Chief of Army Staff, Lieutenant-General Taoreed Lagbaja.

We, at the NNPC Ltd., condole with the President and Commander-in-Chief

Of the Armed Forces of the Federal republic of Nigeria, Bola Ahmed Tinubu,

GCFR, and the Nigerian Army on this monumental loss of a brilliant officer

And a gentleman who served the nation with commitment and distinction.

We note, in particular, that the late Chief of Army Staff was a great support

To us at NNPC Ltd in the fight against pipeline vandalism and oil theft, not

Leaving us in doubt about his commitment to the nation’s economic

Prosperity and development.

Our prayers go to his immediate and extended families in their moments of

Grief, that God will grant them the fortitude to bear this irreparable loss and

That He will grant his soul eternal repose in His Bosom.

Lt General Lagbaja will be sorely missed.
