Pleased to announce that I’ll be attending Moonshot 2026 by TechCabal.
One thing I’m particularly interested in is how law is an enabler for capital and innovation. Behind every growing startup is a need for the right legal structures, sound commercial agreements, and a
regulatory framework that supports growth.
I look forward to connecting with founders, VC funds, investors, and other players in Nigeria’s investment ecosystem to exchange ideas, understand their needs, and explore how we at Advocaat Law Practice can support them as they
build, raise capital, and scale. If you’ll be at Moonshot, I’d be glad to connect. Let’s have meaningful conversations and explore opportunities to work together. #Moonshot2026
This post is quite misplaced because the precondition for even bidding in the first place is that Bidders must demonstrate technical and financial capacity.
The invitation for training is actually for regulatory guidance's sake. NUPRC is a regulator and not some academy.
It is from the mundane ordinary things that you get to properly understand Nigeria. Drilling a deep water well costs at least $100m but here is the regulator inviting licence winners to come for a 2 day “training”. Who has $100m to spend (with no guarantee of success) and needs “training” on what to do next?
From this we can infer the kind of people who have been awarded the licences…

All it takes is one good idea, some delusional friends and a Chinese supplier.

So you bidded for an oil block, you won, you’ve paid the signature bonus and have been awarded a lease. So what’s the next step?
In the past, many companies were unable to develop their blocks because they lacked the commercial or technical capability.
The consequence of this was that these assets sat idle, depriving the Nigerian people of jobs and the government of revenue.
To change this trend, the NUPRC is for the next two days holding an onboarding programme for the latest awardees of the Petroleum Prospecting Licence (PPL).
Subject matter experts with decades of experience drawn from various departments in the NUPRC as well as external facilitators will provide new licensees with the knowledge that will take them from exploration to first oil.
The entire 2-day event will be streamed live on our social media pages. Follow the NUPRC on X, LinkedIn, Facebook and Instagram to be part of it.
