It's remarkable how it took Buhari and APC just less than 6 years to exceed the corruption done by the evil PDP in 16 years...

What is actually more befuddling is the fact that they did so brazenly and unabashedly, not in any way concerned about the outcry of the populace!

It must be quite refreshingly profitable to lead millions of disunited and unintelligent people! What a pity!!!

No one will buy a liability.

Plus why sell a refinery to an investor and then when he refines fuel, you prevent him from making a profit by subsidising fuel? How would the investor make a profit to maintain the refinery

The billions of dollars the govt has been spending on these refineries, since 2007, in the name of turnaround maintenance, is mindbuggling and would have built us 5 new ones.

Someone can still buy. The Land has monetary value, the metals have monetary value, u might say price won't be worth it but don't forget Obasanjo sold it before year Asus reversed the sale. Selling still very possible

No truer words have been said. If Dangote is building a brand new refinery for close to such amount, I wonder the magic that we want to see that apc want to do in pH refinery just for a rehabilitation.

I don't support the stupid repair they want to do, pls check your facts, PDP spent more on the same refinery.

That amount can build a new refinery or a multiple Modular refineries, the level of theft through blatant inflation of contract values in this regime is alarming.

Unfortunately this noise maker is from my state. Like he's not part of the droves that brought him but here he comes always crying us a river. When all were rose I remember the sound of his bold voice whenever he voiced of Shai Baba one of the sales reps that marketed and sold Nigerians buhari. Let him champion any good course that will bring the change. Not even a youth vocational centre in his village let alone and he is here preaching holier. Let him establish one of things he's listing. He doesn't even have a sachet water factory in Kogi as a whole where he's represented in federal capacities. He only hides and gives negative criticism for the monster government he helped made. Pls we all know you are a slay baba. Just wanna ask when the next is gonna be out

If you had a car which had been consuming your money for repair or fixing for 20 yet could not take you 20km, would you continue to spend on it or forget about it and get a new one?

PDP left six years ago. Are we still blaming them? For the past six years what have Buhari being the Petroleum Minister done? Every year budget in billions is alloted for TAM of the refineries yet they can't refine a single drop of oil. The fuel we aren't buying cheaper. Where is the 1 year one Refinery Buhari promised?

Wrong.

It shouldn’t be fixed is what Dino meant.

Embalming the dead, is it waking the dead?

Dino was right.
Nigeria earned close to a trillion dollars from crude oil but still thinks of refineries built nearly half a century ago.

A FAILED STATE.

Macphenson:
This Buhari administration reeks of corruption. I remember after the 2015 elections, APC came up with a propaganda that they have done the turn around maintenance of that refinery with local engineers and at a cheaper rate.

They said there was no need to involve foreigners in thr TAM as it can easily be done by our local engineers. They created the impression that the refinery is already working.

But soon their lies caught up with them and the refinery never made any profit, rather it was incurring debts running in billions.

Today the same lieing APC is telling us that they want to bring in expatriates to do the turn around maintenance with $1.5B and the question I ask is how much does it cost to build a new refinery that you want to do maintenance with $1.5B on a comatose structure?

Shell recently sold their refinery that has a higher refining capacity for $2B.

Buhari is simply corruption personified.
Not up to $2B, rather $1.2billion
