∆ I am telling you Obaseki has said it verbally on video.
All political office holders from head to bottom loot recklessly.
But this news is not new. It has been all over. I am shocked to see people say they haven't heard. To me, people probably selectively hear what they want to hear. I believe prejudice is a major issue. Edo is the last place people expect to have modular refineries.
∆ I will not support Obaseki in a million years but he has done quite some good things but APC people all over the place will always rubbish it. Everything is too political in this country.

Is it new for the system to sabotage any genuine effort to make 9ja work? Why should this surprise anyone?
If the company has reached out to NNPC, Obaseki complaining loudly, who are the staff?
What if the corrupt/bought media refuses to carry the news? Lots of social media still rely on traditional sources?

1. I still don't know what you mean by prejudice in this case as it never really mattered where the refinery but whether the refinery is working of not..

2. I already explained why I don't take the word of politicians. I would listen to anyone else but them. And I didn't hear anyone else, not even the workers in the company.

Without the Open Cabal crude oil will trade at 30USD and countries like Nigeria will run out of business. There will be over supply

If we refine all our crude into petroleum and associated products, we would not care at what price crude will trade. Refined products prices are not regulated. In fact if oil trade at 30 USD, we should import and stock up our reserves.

I used to think all oil producing countries were members o... Thanks for this enlightenment

It's only a fool whose family does not have sufficient food to eat that'll be sharing food to outsiders... That is our case

Gbam. A lazy fool for that matter.
It's like your father having hectares of cassava farm, but since you are so lazy, you prefer selling the the whole cassava in the farm for N1,000,000, and then use the money earned to buy a bag of 50kg garri at N50,000 in order to feed your family.

The cost of producing crude in Nigeria is high, at some point you will care

Higher than importing the crude?
What makes cost of producing Nigerian crude higher than other countries?

There is a lot of prejudice about Edo. That nothing is good there. Any news about cultism, Kabaka or witchcraft would not have gone unseen by so many.

The news about completed modular refinery and failure to get crude supply has been out there. Many times , for over two years.

The same time Shuaibu story was everywhere, refinery without crude news were also there.

I saw them but many say they didn't. You get to find what you seek.

1. All that so-called prejudice has nothing to do with this or this conversation, so let's keep it off abeg!

2. Like I said, I never heard of it until now. All I had been reading or hearing from social media chats between citizens is that there were no working refineries.

Question is : Why would most of the media conspicuously omit it but eager to report bad news? I have seen it over 10 times, many were by Obaseki. Even though I would never vote for him.

It's like saying corruption has nothing to do with say a topic like "rot" in education, health care or infrastructure. Can you imagine Sanwo-Olu having done such in Lagos and media won't carry it?

Whether we want to hear some things or not does not mean they don't exist. Truth is bitter.

MY PPL WHY IS MILLEKYARY STILL OUR NNPC MD? This guy is not Niger deltan,his state no get crude oil,what is going on over there, A sari should tell us

the cost of producing a barrel of crude in Nigeria is about 39 USD while in Saudi and Russia it is about 19-20 USD. For cost, there is technology, there is technical know how, there are other ancillary and 3rd party cost.
