Politics › Re: Bua Refinery Will Open By 2024 by Panda7(m): 9:43am On Mar 13, 2024

Baring any unforeseen developments in the local and international economy, the 200,000 barrels per day BUA Petroleum Refinery will commence full commercial operation in 2024, after a groundbreaking ceremony billed for May this year.
Giving graphic details on the economics of Nigeria’s second largest petroleum refining complex in Lagos at the weekend, Executive Chairman of BUA Group, Abdul Samad Rabiu, said the project was initiated against the backdrop of the huge amount of foreign exchange the nation spends importing refined petroleum products into the country.
Rabiu who defended the sustainability of his Group’s investment in the various sectors of the economy, said the refinery project will meet the government’s economic diversification agenda in the long run, as new fuel standards continue to evolve in line with the climate crisis.
He said the project is being constructed with the best of technology from Axens of France rated as one of the best in the world in petroleum refining industry and would enable the nation save huge amounts of foreign exchange in addition to creating thousands of jobs for the citizens.
“ Nigeria consumes over 50million liters of fuel daily and over 90 of that is imported with about 35 percent of the country’s scarce foreign currency spent on imported products. This, coupled with low crude prices due to low demand arising from the Coronavirus pandemic offers us huge opportunity to invest in projects that would help us conserve more funds, leveraging the low cost technology being deployed by Axens of France offering us far lower cost than what it should be.” He said
Rabiu further noted that the refinery’s complete marine infrastructure and nearness to its feedstock will enable it save more on haulage, as it targets local, regional and other land -locked markets in Africa, bolstered by its unique location and opportunities emerging from the AfCFTA.
According to him, the economics of the project are a ‘no-brainer’.
Contract for the construction of the refinery was signed in Paris between BUA Group Chairman Abdulsamad Rabiu, and the CEO of Axens, Jean Sentenac, in a ceremony presided over by France’s Minister Delegate for Foreign Trade and Economic Attractiveness, Franck Riester. While calling on the Federal Government to improve the nation’s operating environment through liberalization of cement production to enable more manufacturers take advantage of the new Africa Continental Free Trade Agreement (AfCFTA), to export more to an estimated 1.3billion people across the continent, Rabiu said the continental economic bloc remained a critical strategy to develop the nation’s manufacturing sector currently in comatose.
Is the refinery still billed to be opened by may this year? there have hardly been any journal report or photos from the site online or anywhere, and for the seaport that was billed to be constructed alongside the refinery, is it closer to completion as I'm aware work has been ongoing there for a little while now

Other smart states should follow suit, some states don't have head teacher office because their buildings are dilapidated but worst of the case is that they don't have students data base and the traditional school roll register or classroom counting is outdated as it cannot give customize information about the students so in the case of school records, exams registration, results and saving information, and transferring of students results, the schools still lacks behind. So it's a good move in the right direction by anambra govt. if this will bring good dev. to schools

don't take heed from people who will mock at you when your decision turns out to be have been a misstep. the same faceless people who are giving advice and calling on government to release security dogs on insecurity without considering our democracy, dialogue and reconsiderations are also the ones who will burn fire and brimestone, threaten people's lives once they have information to bad news on the internet. if in a democratic society government could easily consider rehab and recruiting this bandits into an important workforce in the society for the longer future. wise people says ,'a stitch in time saves nine'.
