tucky200:Read below... and pls, you should kindly tell me ur age. London (NDR) – There is an adage that says “a lie repeated several times seems to be true.” This is exactly the case of Gen. Muhammadu Buhari as regards to the Nigerian refineries. Many Nigerians, maybe out of ignorance believe the lie that Buhari built our 4 refineries. This can be regarded as the ‘lie of the century.’ If you are one of those that believed this repeatedly told lies, this special and well investigated report by NewsDay Reporters will cure you of ignorance. For the records, Nigeria has four refineries namely Port Harcourt, Alesa- Eleme (PH 1), Warri, Kaduna and PH 11 refineries. In 1960, Shell and the then British Petroleum (BP) now African Petroleum (AP) came together in a mutual joint venture that gave birth to Nigerian Petroleum Refining Company (NPRC). This process led to the construction of the now popular Alesa-Eleme (PH 1) in the outskirts of Port Harcourt with a capacity of 38,000b/d. The construction started in 1963 and was completed in 1965 (in this period, where was Buhari? he just joined the army in 1962). As the demand for local consumption increased rapidly, the refinery’s capacity was raised to 60,000b/d after the FG acquired 60% equity in 1970 and the remaining 40% in 1978 through the 1977 decree 77. The administration of Gen. Olusegun Obasanjo, in order to enhance the performances of the oil sector, promulgated Decree 77 of 1978 establishing the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC). The NNPC initially had five bodies, each with a managing director. They were all supervised by a group general manager. The number of subsidiaries rose to nine and later 11. Following the indigenization policy of the Federal Military Government under the Obasanjo’s regime, the name NPRC was changed to NNPC and its equity totally bought over by the Federal Government in 1978. Therefore, the NPRC constructed the first refinery in Nigeria generally known as Port Harcourt 1 in 1965 while the NNPC built the Port Harcourt 11, Warri and Kaduna refineries. However, the Warri Refinery was awarded by Yakubu Gowon to Snamprogetti Spa Milan, Italy in 1975 (in this period, Buhari was the governor of North-eastern state) at the cost of $478 million and commenced operation in 1978 (now he was a Petroleum. Minister). It had the design capacity of 100,000 b/d. The Kaduna Refinery was awarded by Murtala Mohammed in 1976 and was built by Chiyoda Engineering and Construction Company - a Japanese firm, at the cost of $525 million and was completed by Obasanjo in 1979 (Buhari's tenure as the Petroleum. Minister ended in 1978). It had two refining streams (50,000 b/d fuels units) and (50,000 b/d lubes, waxes Asphalt plants). Port Harcourt 11 was awarded by Gen IBB in 1985 with an installed capacity of 150,000 b/d and completed in 1989. Meanwhile in 1985, IBB undertook an expansion of the capacities of the fuels units in both Warri and Kaduna refineries to 125,000b/d and 110,000b/ d respectively. He therefore added 185,000b/d capacity to the total 445,000b/d as at 1989. No further addition has been added till date. So, when did Buhari build the four refineries? Lets I forget, Buhari has no legacy as a former Head of State despite ruling the country with an iron-fist. |
tucky200:You have failed to mention any of his achievement. Any military govt that can't put anything on ground for 1 year in office, is a failed government, and dont deserve to rule in a Democratic system. Even a tape of water, Buhari could not provide any community with it and you called it a successful government. Did Buhari fight corruption or he was fighting his political opponet, now, what do you think is corruption? Buhari once said Abacha is not corrupt, even while it was clear in the eyes of the world... I wonder what kind of corruption such person can fight. |
tucky200:List what we gained durring Buhari's Military regime. |
tucky200:Sorry bros, i'm not from the East, but a Nigerian who love truth. Our current President is a former coupist, a person who destroy and end a Democratic system of government, i wonder what he will offer this country. Ofcos, we can all see the measures the president has taken to end the attacks of Boko Haram. *Sending of some Boko Haram Members to the East *The Removal of (all) check point *Negotiation with the Leader of Boko Haram and etc. Dont forget that ''An attack on Boko Haram is an attack against the North'' |
tucky200:Is fact not trash! Dont you hear about the happenings in Nigeria or do you live in France? |
tucky200:APC govt is a major failure and a disaster even before the starting of it. This present govt has comletely lost focus and ideas. GEJ govt was 10m times better. You will soon start missing him, save if you just have personal hatred for him. Nigeria is worst today than 2 Months ago. |
The APC is a major disaster that Nigerians will never forget. We need true Change!!! |
So much has really happened when GEJ was away. I pray GEJ has returned from America with some luck! God bless GEJ we really love you. |
NowLetUsBegin:Washing madam's plates shouldnt be the only problem you have or the only thing disturbing you... I actually dont know how rich you are or what you worth, but i just want you to know that God has really treated me nicely and i'm living good by His grace. I pray for those who serve madams or ogas for God to also bless them... You that dont have madam to wash her plates, your future is also in the hands of God who allow some to be servant. Such is life!! |
NowLetUsBegin:hmmmm... You just sound highly irresponsible. I actually dont like insulting ppl, pls, try somebody else. I'm entitle to my opinion, just as you are to yours. |
Buhari is using mouth to condem Boko Haram attacks, while Boko Haram are using Bombs to cut short the lives of innocent Nigerians. APC is is a disaster! This change is not good enough for Nigerians, we need another Change!!! |
After Rejecting Jonathan, Nigerians Deserve Boko Haram Bombings – Fani- Kayode “Whatever each of us may or may not believe, one thing is clear- that Boko Haram now have powerful friends and secret allies right at the epicenter of power and those friends and allies are running the affairs of the country,” he said.

kindnyce:You are a big dreamer! |
APC is a useless party... The greatest mistake Nigerians has ever made. The last time our elders made such mistake was on 1914. |
Yoruba elders say they regret voting for Muhammadu Buhari during Nigeria's last president election. According to NIGERIAN PILOT, the leaders are particularly angry with Buhari over the recently concluded National Assembly elections, which they feel was a big blow to the South west. One of the Elders who spoke to newsmen anonymously said, ''For the fact that the South-West played a key role in the emergence of Buhari as the President, it is expected that they would occupy a more strategic position than the post of vice president''. They argued that the position of Professor Yemi Osinbanjo, the current vice president, who is a South west indigene is not a powerful position. National Coordinator of Coalition of Democrats for Electoral Reform, CODER, Chief Ayo Opadokun, a South-West leader, noted that the Yoruba race made a great mistake by not re-electing the former President, considering what he had in stock for the zone. He said the implementation of the National Conference report would elevate the standard of the zone, which is the reason people of the South-West should have queued behind Jonathan. “Failure to do this needful may spell doom for the zone as their trust in their forged alliance with North would lead to regret. According to image maker of Pro- National Conference, Wale Okunniyi, “what happened at the National Assembly was a conspiracy against Yoruba nation by some powerful forces in the APC. Although, we hold the Vice President position, we lost the speakership. This calls for total re- strategising by Yoruba leadership so that we can have our way in this current power structure.” Prominent South- West leader and lawyer, Asiwaju Bisi Adegbuyi, said Yoruba race should know what they want, adding that Yoruba made progress during Chief Obafemi Awolowo’s days. Also, a PDP chieftain from the zone, Barrister Olayinka Sanni, put the blame on the selfish interest of Asiwaju Bola Tinubu. He said that Tinubu’s selfish interest was pushing the South-West backward. “He derives pleasure from cheating people in public. If they had not conducted the mock election, Femi Gbajabiamila would have won since it would have happened at the same time in both chambers,’’ he noted, adding that going by the trend of things, South-West might be forced to pressurise President Buhari to implement the part of the recommendation of the Confab which would be favorable to them. |
Baawaa:Buhari is not worth to be President if he cant arrest the PDP. APC is such a USELESS party... |
