OPEN LETTER AND COMMENDATION TO PRESIDENT BOLA TINUBU ON THE RECENT REHABILITATION OF THE PORTHARCOURT AND WARRI REFINERIES

Recently, the media was awash with news of the rehabilitation of the Port Harcourt and Warri refineries and the subsequent production of petroleum products from the Port Harcourt refinery. Following my personal confirmation of the veracity of the stories, I am compelled to publicly commend President Bola Tinubu for rehabilitating the refineries.

At a time when Nigerians are groaning over the huge cost of petroleum products, especially PMS, it is a huge relief to observe that the Port Harcourt and Warri refineries have come back to life, with the possibility of driving competition that will ultimately bring down the prices of petroleum products across the country.

Having taken steps to revamp the refineries, the President must go further by blocking all illegal exploitation of the nation’s oil resources by non-state actors. It is now obvious that the Nigerian Navy is overstretched and can no longer protect our oil facilities alone. In this light, I call on the President to direct the army to maintain increased presence across our oil facilities and protect them from oil theft.

While commending Mr. President for the positive steps taken on the refineries, I urge him to take urgent steps to ensure that the life of the average Nigerian is improved, in line with his campaign promises.

COMRADE DEJI ADEYANJU.

Though the post has raised serious reactions from Nigerians, as some commended the good work from Mr. President, a few others claim the refinery was never the problem.

See some reactions from Nigerians.

@Innocent_Inno – “Everything about our refineries were political… nothing was ever wrong with them but a milking industry for the cabals, maybe the shift is now having to deal with just Dangote.”

@OnGaad – “That is not the problem in Nigeria, the problem is CORRUPTION and I doubt if is a questionable character like Tinubu can solve that. As long as they keep renovating government offices and houses with billions every year, nothing will change in the lives of the poor masses.”

@Samuel_Babajide – “I now really understand you really now that u are not a basis citizen if things are going right u will talk like wise if it is bad I will still talk kudos for this one u open up bro.”

@Godwin_Onyebuchi – “O love this, with this government will know that good efforts are appreciated 👍.”
