Your head must be in the clouds to be counting a private sector investment as a government achievement.

In fact you are lost.

kudos to this administration for creating an enabling environs for people to want to invest.

ItsMeAboki:
The matter is quite straight forward: It is a private venture by a group of investors who bought a (2nd hand BP) refinery in Turkey and propose to dismantle and re-assemble it in Nigeria where they would run it for profit (like any private operation).
How they propose to run it, including who heads it, should really be up to them as the business owners - pls therefore explain where we would have a problem with this kind of arrangement.

Obviously, you are new in the game.

Go figure out what is called NCDMB and their almighty executed NCCC,

The Group Managing Director , NNPC , Maikanti Baru , disclosed this while speaking on efforts being made to achieve self - sufficiency in local refining besides the rehabilitation of Nigerian refineries .
According to a statement issued by the corporation ’s Group General Manager , Group Public Affairs Division , Ndu Ughamadu , in Abuja , Baru said that the refinery from Turkey would be relocated and installed near the Port Harcourt refinery under the NNPC refinery collocation initiative .
He was quoted as saying , “Our collocation initiative aimed at getting private sector investors to bring in brownfield refineries so that they can share facilities is also yielding results . For example , there is one that is going to be brought in from Turkey to be located near the Port Harcourt refinery .
“It’ s not a modular refinery ; it’s a normal refinery with about 100 ,00 bpd capacity. It was owned by the BP , but it has been sold off now to the companies that want to bring it over from Turkey to install it here .”
Baru further explained that a similar plan to establish a brownfield refinery near the Warri refinery was also in the offing .
“There is another one of about the same size being looked at to be sited near the Warri refinery . But the one for Port Harcourt is at a more advanced stage . Our drive at the NNPC , as a leader in the industry , is to expand our local refining capacity and make Nigeria a global refining hub ,” he said .
The NNPC. in an apparent response to reports of a possible resort to “proceed of gas tariffs” as a new means of funding because of purported collapse of negotiation with Chinese lenders , said the contractor finance arrangement was still intact .
