These are outgoing NNPC MD, Dr. Maikanti Baru's achievements that he wants surpassed:

-$25 billion (N9 trillion) contract scandal about which Ibe Kachikwu (Petroleum Minister of State and his predecessor) raised alarm

-4 refineries, none of which is working

-Petroleum products shortage

-Running up a suspect subsidy regime of over N1.4 trillion

Nairalanders may add to the list of ignominy.
