New Minister Of Petroleum Rumour Swirl Around Mofe Boyo

Mofe Boyo, one of the top shots at Ocean and Oil is at the centre of talks positioning him as the as possible replacement for petroleum minister Diezani Allison Madueke in the government of president elect, Muhammadu Buhari.

Here are the details

Ability and achievement sometimes go together, no matter how unconventional the man who possesses them. However, It is often said that for an upstart to succeed in the oil sector, he must have the face and heart of Hercules, the fearlessness of Achilles, the grace of Terpsichore, the memory of Macaulay, and the hide of a rhinoceros. Omamofe Boyo, a Director of Oando Energy Resources as well as the Deputy Group Chief Executive of Oando plc, conveniently exudes all of that, thus his ascension to the top of the oil industry’s greasy pole. But like anxious teenagers waiting for their bar mitzvah, many Nigerians, near and far-flung, are eager to know if Mofe will be a perfect fit for the position of minister of petroleum as his name is being touted as the person to replace  Mrs Diezani Alison-Madueke.

Contrary to what you might read, Mofe is no overnight sensation. In fact, he achieved success the old-fashioned way: he earned it. He worked hard and stayed humble. He lives the right way; he plays the right way. In every respect, he may be adjudged a successful man. Like a Darwinian supermodel, he has turned the world into his catwalk; emblazoning it with towering ingenuity and excellence that defies even the most formidable human icons till date. But wait a minute; can the fun-loving Mofe run the oil ministry? This is the million-dollar question said to be on the lips of many Nigerians as you read
