The orchestrated media reports are clearly calculated to spread false information. Seplat Energy will be engaging with the Ministry to reject the impressions created by these allegations.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1015377687MsoNormal\">The Board believes that these allegations are a spurious and vindictive reaction to the enforcement of corporate governance standards in the Company by the Board of Seplat Energy. Over the past decade, Mr. Brown has earned an unblemished record of service and leadership in the Company. On 8th March 2023, the Board of Seplat Energy unanimously passed a vote of confidence in Mr. Brown, who continues to discharge his duties and responsibilities as CEO from the SEPLAT UK office.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1015377687MsoNormal\">This announcement is made pursuant to Rule 17.10 of the Rulebook of the Nigerian Exchange, 2015 (Issuer\u2019s Rule).<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1015377687MsoNormal\">Please see The Nigerian Exchange Limited site for full response:<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1015377687MsoNormal\"><a href=\"https:\/\/doclib.ngxgroup.com\/Financial_NewsDocs\/37782_SEPLAT_ENERGY_PLC-CORPORATE_ANNOUNCEMENT_BY_SEPLAT_ENERGY_PLC.___CORPORATE_ACTIONS_MARCH_2023.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener noreferrer\">37782_SEPLAT_ENERGY_PLC-CORPORATE_ANNOUNCEMENT_BY_SEPLAT_ENERGY_PLC.___CORPORATE_ACTIONS_MARCH_2023.pdf (ngxgroup.com)<\/a><\/p><div data-ad-id=\"32665\" style=\"text-align:center; margin-top:0px; margin-bottom:0px; margin-left:0px; margin-right:0px;float:none;\" class=\"afw afw_ad_image afw_ad afwadid-32665  \">\r\n                                                            <div style=\"font-size:10px;text-align:center;color:#cccccc;\">Advertisement<\/div>\r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.accessbankplc.com\" rel=\"nofollow\"><img decoding=\"async\" height=\"auto\" max-width=\"100%\" src=\"https:\/\/nationalwire.com.ng\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Banner-1.jpg\"><\/a>\r\n                                                                        \r\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n<p class=\"yiv1015377687MsoNormal\"><b>Responsibility for publication<\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1015377687MsoNormal\">This announcement has been authorised for publication by Mr. Basil Omiyi, Independent Chairman, on behalf of the entire Board of Seplat Energy PLC.<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1015377687MsoNormal\">Signed:<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1015377687MsoNormal\">Mr. Basil Omiyi<\/p>\n<p class=\"yiv1015377687MsoNormal\">Board Chairman<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"W_3mS5W p_f Z_N L_0 h_Z1RYb6n\" data-test-id=\"message-card-toolbar\">\n<div class=\"W_6D6F I_2aVTfe z_Z14vXdP H_7ceA jb_6FsP\">\n<ul class=\"hd_n M_0 P_0 D_F gl_FL ab_C H_6D6F\" role=\"toolbar\">\n<li class=\"W_6D6F t_C em_0 M_0 N_0 jb_0 X_0 je_0 o_h\" role=\"none\"><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/p><!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Seplat Energy Plc has become aware of a news report following a letter regarding the residency status of its Chief Executive Officer (\u201cCEO\u201d), Mr. Roger Brown.<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on get_the_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":6,"featured_media":47106,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23,17],"tags":[8958],"coauthors":[2391],"class_list":["post-69928","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-business","category-news","tag-seplat-energy-plc"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v18.9 -
