The Hydrocarbon Pollution Remediation Project (HYPREP) says it remains committed to partnering critical stakeholders including regulators and asset owners towards ensuring the delivery of quality projects in the Ogoni Cleanup programme.
Professor Nenibarini Zabbey, Project Coordinator of HYPREP reaffirmed this position at the Third Quarter Key Regulators and Asset Owners Meeting which was held in Port Harcourt, yesterday, as part of HYPREP’s transparency and accountability framework, emphasizing the invaluable roles regulators and asset owners play in the project’s Quality Control and Quality Assurance Framework .
In his remarks, the PC noted that the meeting further affirms the Project’s commitment to the environmental restoration of Ogoniland through a robust synergy with stakeholders including regulators and asset owners to ensure the full implementation of the recommendations of the UN Environment Programme Report on Ogoni Environment.
According to the PC:
”This meeting serves a dual purpose; first to provide a platform for HYPREP to share updates on the status of the Project and areas where further support is required, and secondly to allow regulators and asset owners to provide constructive feedback that will help strengthen our collective approach”
As a key part of HYPREP’s policy framework, Prof. Zabbey stated that the Project prioritises Quality Assurance and Quality Control (QA/QC) at all levels, while urging for regulators and assets owners continued support to ensuring quality projects delivery.
”As we continue to consolidate the gains made so far, HYPREP remains steadfast in adhering to international standards, processes and protocols
”As an interventionist and community-based project, we will continue to engage all stakeholders transparently as we address challenges that may arise during project implementation
