Oshiomhole Opens Up On Akpabio Daughter’s NNPC Ltd Job

Senator Adams Oshiomhole has alleged that Senate President Godswill Akpabio has a personal interest in the Nigerian National Petroleum Company (NNPC) Limited after former NNPC Chief Executive Officer (CEO) Mele Kyari employed his daughter in a juicy position she probably didn’t merit.

He stated this while reacting to the Senate’s decision to disown Mele Kyari’s arrest warrant. 

The All Progressives Congress (APC) federal lawmaker stated this while speaking on Seun Okinbaloye’s political podcast “Mic On” on Saturday, June 13, 2026. 

Senator Oshiomhole further stated that there are ongoing plans to demarket him ahead of the next Senate Presidency election. 

He said Akpabio is trying to destroy his image by projecting him as a controversial figure, but what he doesn’t appreciate is that the leadership of the Senate is in the hands of God. 

According to Oshimhole, if Akpabio has his way, he would lock him out of the Senate.

The former Edo state governor claimed this is because Akpabio has misled himself into thinking that he is probably the devil he knows.

 He further stated that there are many agents Akpabio doesn’t know, and the 11th Senate will not be the 10th Senate.

 Oshiomhole said the Senators are grovelling about Akpabio’s style of leadership.

 “If Akpabio has his way, he would lock me out of the Senate because he has misled himself into thinking that I’m probably the devil he knows. 

“However, there are many agents he doesn’t know, and the 11th Senate will not be the 10th Senate. Senators are grovelling about his style of leadership.”
