Local operators involved in the illegal refining of crude oil in the coastal communities of the Niger Delta have commended the acting President, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo over the planned liberalisation of modular refineries in the region.
The operators , formerly known as illegal refinery owners described the proposed liberalisation of modular refineries as a welcome development that would encourage local participation, massive employment of youths and increased production of petroleum product for the nation.
They however warned that politicians should not be allowed to hijack the policy.

The operators under the aegis of the Izon-Ibie Modular Refinery Association, in a letter to the acting President, signed by Clever Uyabara and Okia Pere, Chairman and Secretary respectively, said the success of the proposed modular refinery was dependent on the openness of the policy and should not be politicised.
According to them, “The issue of the proposed modular refinery should not be allowed to be politicized and hijacked by politicians.ft

Only God knows what is currently going on in the minds of the 'cabals' against this pro-southern president.

There are two important things to consider before going ahead with the liberalization of the illegal refineries.
Paramount among them is Quality Control of the products
2 The issue of environmental pollution.

These guys don't look like they can handle any real standards. I think it will go as well as formalizing illegal mines. They should shut down guys who can't meat standard. They make process as quick and streamlined so people that can get productin ASAP.

this could be our solution..let the locals be able to refine oil too legaly and sell to the market..

the fg just practise quality control..

My husband is from the Niger Delta region and I was there in the village and I saw the level of pollution and I wept for these people

the fg can place laws and agecies to control how they refine the oil..

anybody that breaks the laws will be highly fined and if they dont better themselves even banned..

and dont forget the western nations that will kick against the idea..they will start a media and online campaign to rubbish the idea..

they profit alot from refining our oyel and selling it back to us..

It's okay... An integration of the locals will definitely increase productivity advert vandalism.


Osinbajo is thinking aside the box.

Implementation of the proposed laws will always be a problem. People who are supposed to keep the laws end up being compromised

Well, for the naysayers, this is the best approach to this problem. If followed with ordinary common sense, it will lead to a lot of betterment for the local operators of the modular refineries as well as the common man as it will ultimately help to beat down the cost of products obtained through refining crude. Secondly, and equally important, it will lead to the bloom of a new national industrial cashcow - production and refining of refined products.

The challenges of safety and pollution? They are not new problems. There are existing solutions that can be bought and our engineers can also learn to innovate to make them even better.

Foreign media complaints? Let them have a "complaint party" and knock themselves out. Wetin consign Agbero with overload?

Osinbajo, push that idea and folllow it to a logical conclusion and see how fast the Naira rises and economy gets better.

So far, this is the best natural solution to militancy in the Niger Delta. Government should help them fund such modular refineries across the creeks and have them buy crude legally and pay taxes. If managed well, the federal government can actually begin making money from the militants.

Easier said than done. The truth is the country can't keep up with the local demand for petroleum products especially diesel. Many banks, telecom coys and and business buy this locally refined because the standard one is simply unavailable or extremely scarce!

Sadly, if all these illegal refineries close many big cooperations will be in bigger shit! They are not the problem; they're a symptom of the problem.

Once FG gives a go ahead for modular refineries, real businessmen will take-over the business and refine oil in an environmentally clean way.

The businessmen won't go for locally fabricated modular refineries, I'm sure they'll prefer to go for ones built by reputable companies so as to maximise production.

I pray for Osibanjo to succeed with this plan and for Buhair to extend his vacation. This plan will reduce oil pipe vandalism to its barest minimum and we'll make us to reduce refined petroleum products importation.

My fear is that Dangote and the principalities who invested in his refinery will do everything within their power to stop this Osibanjo plan. Because once Osibanjo gives a go ahead for modular refineries, modular refineries will start springing up like wild fire everywhere in the Niger delta. It takes about a month to install them, so it won't be difficult for it to spread thruout the region.

God be with Osibanjo and help him to see that this plan comes to physical manifestation

I didn't call anyone a criminal o. Read through my initial post again.

Yea, there's a way out of it if we fix our refineries and make the imported one available in the mean time. Everything depends on power. So unless we solve the power problem illegal refineries will continue to flourish.

Whenever I hear the army or Navy burn an illegal refinery I laugh cos even them are part of the problem. The Navy in the creeks collect huge bribes from these refinery operators to permit their operations in the first place, and only turn back on them when monetary​ agreements aren't met.

refineries..

the europeans started small small too..

they didnt discover crude oil as energie source and started building refineries immediately...

power plants:
i would have built coal plants in each states..
its messy i know..
but it will give local entrepeneurs enough time to build more cleaner plants..

this is how china did it...

forget mtn with their prepaid solar rubbish..
south africans are rubbish people..

You really believe MTN that prepaid bullshit. If that was workable, their base stations won't be burning diesel 12-18 hours a day.

Coal power is really what a developing country like ours needs. Even China still largely depends on coal and we're busy deceiving ourselves with environmental protocols. A country the size of ours should produce 50000MW and we're struggling with 3000MW

yea..we should start little by little...

but with only coal plants we will have immediatly 20000+ megawatt...

enough time to give energie entrepeneurs to build more cleaner power plants...

this is how china did it..
and you sef are saying the chinese are still largely dependent on coal...you see?

but ofcourse the western morons will kick against it..

thats why i say we should leave uno,icc and whatever..

forget pan africana too..
only care about ya own sef...

nigerians!..

if you produce enough energie the igbos will go overdrive on productions..selling drugs abroad and petty crimes will disappear...

win win business...
