Joe Nwakwue and Prof. Wunmi Iledare, both renowned petroleum industry experts of global repute; as well as Dr. Otive Igbuzor, acclaimed development expert and Founding Executive Director, Centre LSD.

Sen. Omo-Agege represents Delta Central senatorial district which has a number of oil producing communities while Hon. Mungonu chairs the House Technical Committee on the PIB.

The OrderPaper Colloquium Series are designed to reinforce the current legislative processing of the bill. The first HostCom Colloquium was held in Abuja on July 12, 2018 and was chaired by Hon. Alhassan Doguwa, then Chief Whip of the House of Representatives and Chairman of the Ad-hoc Committee on PIB.

OrderPaper Advocacy Initiative is a non-governmental organization that embarks on policy-related engagements and interventions, especially in the legislative space to expand the frontiers of good governance and deepen democratic practice. Its core aspiration is to expand the space for good governance and amplify the voices and participation of hitherto under-served and under-represented interests in the political process in a manner that makes for inclusiveness.
