    Yenagoa, Nigeria – The Nigerian Content Development and Monitoring Board (NCDMB), in partnership with Sweetcrude Limited, has announced stringent selection criteria for the inaugural Champions of Nigerian Content Awards, designed to honor outstanding contributions to local content development in Nigeria’s oil and gas sector.

    Scheduled for May 21, 2025, at the NCDMB Conference Hall in Yenagoa, the awards will recognize individuals and organizations that have demonstrated exceptional commitment to advancing Nigerian Content in 2024. The ceremony will coincide with the Nigerian Oil and Gas Opportunity Fair (NOGOF), further spotlighting industry excellence.

    Objective Evaluation Metrics Ensure Credibility
    Winners across the 12 categories—including Nigerian Content Icon of the Year, Innovator of the Year, and Women in Leadership Award—will be selected based on measurable performance indicators.

    For oil and gas operators, key benchmarks include:
    – Production output (crude oil and gas volumes).
    – Compliance with Nigerian Content Plans (NCPs) and Nigerian Content Compliance Certificates (NCCCs).
    – Adherence to NOGICD Act reporting requirements, such as submission of Nigerian Content Performance Reports and Employment & Training Plans.

    Similar criteria will apply to financial institutions, media organizations, and individuals, ensuring a transparent and merit-based selection process.

    Advisory Committee of Industry Titans to Oversee Process
    To uphold the awards’ prestige, an Advisory Committee of distinguished experts will oversee nominations and validate winners. Members include:

    Dr. Ernest Nwapa (Pioneer Executive Secretary, NCDMB).
    Dr. Omar Farouk (Secretary General, African Petroleum Producers Organization).
    Mr. Wole Akinyosoye (Former Zonal Operations Controller, DPR).

    Engr. Felix Ogbe, NCDMB’s Executive Secretary, emphasized that the awards aim to become the sector’s equivalent of the Oscars, celebrating genuine impact rather than mere participation.

    “This recognition is reserved for those who have gone beyond compliance to drive tangible growth in Nigerian Content,” he stated.

    Event Details
    Date: May 21, 2025
    Time: 7:00 PM
    Venue: NCDMB Conference Hall, Yenagoa.

    With a focus on credibility, compliance, and measurable impact, the Champions of Nigerian Content Awards is poised to set a new standard for excellence in Nigeria’s energy sector.
