The Ministry of Interior and the Nigeria Immigration Service (NIS) have restored the legal right to enter, stay and work in Nigeria of Mr Roger Brown, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Seplat Energy Plc.
In a regulatory filing at the Nigerian Exchange (NGX), Seplat Energy confirmed yesterday that Brown, who had to relocate abroad due to controversy around his immigrant status, has received the immigration documents, including Working Permit, Combined Expatriate Residence Permit and Aliens Card (CERPAC) and other Visas for the entry or stay in the country.
“In view of the restored immigration documents, Mr. Brown can validly enter, work, and stay in Nigeria and today has resumed his position as CEO of Seplat Energy.
“The Board and Management of Seplat Energy Plc are pleased that Mr. Brown has resumed in his role as CEO, as the company continues to make strong strides in delivering its 2023 operational targets,” Seplat Energy stated.
