Women Will Now Participate In The Oil Sector -NCDMB Boss, Simbi Wabote

The Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board has made preparations to enforce policies that will ease the participation of women in business activities in the oil and gas industry.
The Executive Secretary of NCDMB, Simbi Wabote, who stated this at the close of a workshop organised for women in the oil and gas industry in Lagos, explained that the planned policies include access to funding, the award of contracts, and support for research and development.
 
He noted that since the Nigerian Oil and Gas Industry Content Development (NOGICD) Act was instituted as a deliberate agenda to get more Nigerians to participate in the oil and gas industry, there should also be special initiatives to encourage women’s participation in the sector.
