    Barrister Umar Mohammed Babangida, the General Manager, Legal Services NCDMB, is a highly experienced corporate lawyer with over 30 years cognate experience in Corporate & Commercial law, Property Law and Oil & Gas Law with specialization in Nigerian Content Law, Policy and Practice.

    He joined the services of NCDMB in 2011 as a Deputy Manager Legal and pioneered the establishment of the Legal Services of the Board before he was joined by other staff.  As the Deputy Manager and later promoted to Manager, Legal Services, Umar has been involved in providing Legal advice on all aspects of the implementation and interpretation of the Nigerian Oil and Gas Industry Content Development (NOGICD) Act 2010. His transactional experience include provision of advisory services on the structuring of the Nigerian Content Development Fund (NCDF) and all its loan/partial guaranty transactions; NCDMB/BOI Nigerian Content Support Fund structuring; acquisition and documentation of Nigerian Oil and Gas Parks Scheme lands; initiation and start-up of the NCDMB Ministerial Regulations; preparation of Guidelines; litigation management; general legal advice; coaching and mentoring, among others.

Apart from pioneering innovative changes and restructuring of the Legal Services Secretariat for which he received written commendation from the Honourable Minister of Justice, Mallam Mohammed Musa Bello, Umar has also been involved in managing complex litigations pending in the courts and through other Alternative Dispute Mechanisms where he contributed immensely in resolving intractable conflicts as well as the drafting, amendment and review of laws, regulations, contracts and policies on a routine basis.

    Upon completion of his secondment to the FCT in May 2019, Mr Umar was promoted to General Manger, Legal Service, NCDMB.
