Cabals of the North are responsible for this shame. They have stalled every economic development that is being associated with the south.

You guys needs not rise your hope anyhow. Yes, PO seems to be the saviour but was he not also part of the system? He was PDP before decamping and neither a saint. Let's calm down and be focus.

PO this, PO that is only decreasing the guy's chances. He practically doesn't have any magical wand to do anything. Shouting this guy's name unnecessarily is making him losing good number of fans. Let's relax please
That was false expression. Peter Obi wasn't part of the problem because he has never been Nigeria president, vice president, minister, ambassador, adviser or special adviser to the president or vice president. He has not held any post remotely connected to such office. The only two post he held are:
1. Member of Economy Team between 2014 - 2015 (less than a year)
2. Director of SEC between March to May 2015 (2 months)


Every same person know that their economy team did fairly better job than the present economy team. Theirs is to advise and not to implement, so the buck don't stop at their table. Meaning the final responsibility not on their neck.

In the office as a director of Security Exchange Commission, what can he do for just two months in office?

These people are super w*cked. They frustrate every effort of those seeking license to build modular refinery, so they can continue to import from their Refineries abroad. For 7 good years they refuse to revamp even 1 refinery out of 4, so they can steal through the subsidy regime. Very shameful th**ves.

Turnaround maintenance for how many years. The former Minister for Petroleum state, promised that before the year 2019 ends all our refineries would have been revamped. Mr. Man, the same song been sang in 2022. Ho many years would it take to prepare for madness.
One news as at 2018, promising full capacity of petroleum production

This is what I have been screaming for ages yet the noise is drowned out by talks of subsidy this subsidy that. Google how many refineries Hugo Chavez of Venezuela was able to build for his country and how fuel became so cheap that he was able to even supply cut prices to fellow south American countries like Cuba.
It's a monumental shame that we were importing to meet a shortfall in supplies during Abacha days ad now we don't seem to be refining anything anymore but our petroleum needs are now fully imported. Who is benefiting from this rot in the petroleum and power sectors? These are the questions Nigerians should be asking but they are more interested in mundane and immaterial kinds of stuff.
Is it not shameful that a government will be depending on an individual to help them stop importation by building his refinery after almost 7yrs of being in power?

Instead of attracting only breweries to Anambra he could have attracted refineries.

There is nothing that can be so shameful more than that.
That's the singular fact that I say Buhari failed woefully. That was one of those things I told people then that he will do, that he will revamp all our refineries but he got there and joined the cabal kneeling on Nigeria's neck.

My brother that is an average Nigerian mentality. Check all sector, they are too lazy to utilize products. So disheartening a day I read about a Nigerian and their half baked exporter celebrating exporting a vessel of cocoa but. Is that not stupidity? Why not add value, create more jobs and sell high? No! They order the easy way. Check all sectors, you will see that most Nigerians are just extremely lazy to go additional mile in getting the best.

We all just need to change our orientation

Edo refinery is completed, to commence operations soonest, most likely before year-end, seplat too. Those are the 2 modular refineries i know that fought the regulatory body to their teeth. You can find out yourself. Its not an easy battle. Our govt policies are not investor-friendly but i understand. There's so much rot in the system. They want to keep reaping us off from the subsidy they're cashing out from.

Enough said with no intention to rubbish the government or anyone. I'm aware of some of the achievements of this govt too but that doesn't mean when the truth is said, some people would take it personal, no! I didn't say no licences were issued. Go and ask the few you mentioned how they fought with their teeth, among many who had applied. The truth which many of you don't realise is, there's a lot of vested inretest in the subsidy regime. These people would never allow anything work. That's what's also killing the major refineries we had. Sadly, it's beyond buhari himself.

In the niger delta for instance, there were illegal refineries who were refining good quality diesel and selling to the market. It doesn't cost an arm and a leg to build a modular refinery but because of the reasons mentioned above, they'd never allow it work. I recall how much Edo fought for their modular refinery which is expected to commence operation before end of this year. It's not just at an advanced stage as you said. It's actually been completed. This isn't about politics but the hard fact. The Buhari's administration could have performed below expectations but in some areas, especially infrastructure, they tried.

I'd not do any copy and past here. You can Google these facts yourself and read at your convenience.
