The Nigeria Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers, NUPENG, has expressed excitement over the resumption of refining of petroleum products by Port Harcourt Refinery, saying “we are reminded of the essential role this progress plays in addressing Nigeria’s energy challenges, alleviating hardship for workers and citizens, and fostering economic stability.

Reacting to the news that the Port Harcourt Refinery has finally come on stream, NUPENG in a statement by its President and General Secretary, Prince Williams Akporeha and Afolabi Olawale, respectively, among others, said “On behalf of the National Executive Council, NEC, and the entire membership of the NUPENG, we extend our warmest congratulations to the Group CEO, Mr. Mele Kyari and the entire management of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) on this monumental achievement of successfully re-streaming the Port Harcourt Refinery after several years.

“The commencement of crude oil processing and the dispatch of petroleum products from the refinery is a landmark achievement that resonates deeply with the aspirations of Nigerian workers and citizens. This milestone demonstrates NNPCL’s unwavering commitment to achieving energy independence and fostering sustainable economic growth for our dear nation.

“Your exemplary commitment and resilience in steering the Port-Harcourt Refinery Company, PHRC, rehabilitation project to completion, despite numerous challenges, reflect the highest standards of dedication and determination.

“We are very pleased with the achievement of over 16 million man-hours without a single Loss Time Injury (LTI), which is a testament to meticulous planning, professionalism, and the hard work of all involved; an accomplishment that brings pride to our Union members.

“We commend the indispensable support of His Excellency, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, as well as the collaborative efforts of the NNPCL Board of Directors, Staff, and Contractors. This accomplishment is a clear demonstration of what can be achieved through collective effort and shared commitment to national progress.

“As the refinery resumes production and begins loading critical products such as Premium Motor Spirit (PMS), Automotive Gas Oil (AGO), and Household Kerosene (HHK), we are reminded of the essential role this progress plays in addressing Nigeria’s energy challenges, alleviating hardship for workers and citizens, and fostering economic stability.

“While the successful re-streaming of the Port Harcourt Refinery stands as a beacon of hope, it also reinforces our collective optimism for the rehabilitation of the Warri and Kaduna refineries. We earnestly hope and pray that these projects will also come to fruition soon, providing the much-needed stimulus to our nation’s economy and further easing the energy burden faced by Nigerians. We remain confident that NNPCL will deliver on these expectations under your visionary leadership.

“Once, more congratulations to you and your team on this transformative achievement. The NUPENG remains a steadfast partner in the collective journey toward achieving a vibrant, inclusive, and sustainable oil and gas sector that uplifts every Nigerian worker and citizen.”

Typical failed Berebe

MadamVanessa:



I'm skeptical about this recent reports. Yesterday, it was reported that operations had ceased, only to be contradicted by another report today. So immediately, NUPENG commends operations today in the abandoned uselèss refinery that nothing seems to work

This Tinubu led administration must have assumed that everyone is gullible and fóolish as his idîotic supporters.

Nigeria is a great country it will only become GREATER .
