They are Bashir Indabawa (North-West), executive commissioner, exploration and acreage management; Enorense Amadasun (South-South); executive commissioner, development and production; and Babajide Fasina (South-West), executive commissioner, economic regulation and strategic planning.
The president also approved the redeployment of Kelechi Ofoegbu (South-East), executive commissioner, corporate services and administration.
