The incoming President of the United States of America (USA), Mr. Donald Trump, is billed to attend a roadshow put together by the Federal Government as part of efforts to attract investment into the oil sector.

Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Mr. Ibe Kachikwu, made the disclosure while unveiling his goals and those of the Ministry of Petroleum Resources for 2017 in Abuja.

According to him, “We are going to be seeking to attract investments and complete all the MoUs we have in China and India. We are looking to do a roadshow to the UK, we are looking to do a roadshow to the US with President Donald Trump coming in,’’ he said.

The Minister said Nigeria would exploit the relationship built by President Muhammadu Buhari in taking a roadshow to the UK and the US.

“We are going to accelerate Federal Government’s revenues, look into areas where we could have made more money, so as to support the 2017 budget financing.

“We are looking to draw on the relationship that the President has built over time. We are going to be conducting oil blocks allocations and marginal flow awards to try and raise money for the government,” Kachikwu said.

He assured that Nigeria’s refineries would be revamped to produce at 60 per cent capacity.

“We need to start the revamping of the refineries. The president has given us marching orders on that. We still remain committed on our goal of 2018 to reduce importation by 60 per cent and 2019, stop the importation of petroleum products substantially.

“Now, we are going to continue to focus on downstream issues. Although we have liberalised, there are still some challenges.

“We are going to see how we work within the liberalisation infrastructure such that we are able to take away the low-hanging difficulties.

“We are also going to focus on the Niger Delta. It’s been too long a lingering issue. We are going to be working with every aspect of the Presidency to try and find solution to this.

“On the other hand, we are going to run at a rocket pace. We have so much to do. First, we are going to firm up our policies, be able to gazette all our oil and gas policies and then pass the PIB,” he stated.

Kachikwu praised Nigeria’s “influential role” in stabilising oil prices, saying he expects oil to trade in the $60s for the better part of 2017.

He's actually coming for Biafra and Namadi Kunu, he's just hiding under the guise of Nigeria oil investment summit to avoid backlash from the government. So don't worry my fellow flat iPod yoots.

All this Afonjas/Zombies and delusion of theirs self en.


Trump can't associate with dullards like bullhari naa

If it will improve our Economy.. It is a welcome idea!!

He should come and greet BUHARI.

Mr. Trump, Buhari has prepared for your arrival by claiming to get rid of boko haram so there's really nothing to see anymore. He said Nigeria is now secure even though Bokoharam still kills NA Captains once in a while, blows up lone civilians as a recurrent hobby of theirs and we never really saw any Bokoharam suspects they caught.

Instead they were even dashing the suspects back to Bokoharam and even though the NA was starved of weapons and food, somehow Bokoharam vanished into air and disappeared.

It's a wonderful story Mr Trump. You will enjoy it.

Whatever, just give us a meaningful exchange rate.

k

Will this visit stop embezzlement of national resources by the privileged elites, just like this one below.

Issues like this, is what we the Nigerian youths, members of New Nigeria Vanguard stands to fight.
