The former Governor of Anambra State, Peter Obi, has faulted
the approval of $1.5 billion by the Federal Government for the renovation of
the Port Harcourt refinery.
According to Obi, approving such an amount for refinery
repairs in light of Nigeria’s economic situation is a huge waste.
He accused the leaders of worsening the country’s situation
by their financial rascality.
Obi said, “The news of the planned expenditure of a whopping $1.5 billion for Port Harcourt refinery repairs is worrisome to well-meaning Nigerians. In light of our precarious economic situation, it is a huge waste.
“Our country on life support, but sadly the managers of our
affairs are worsening the situation by their financial rascality.”
Recall that the Federal Executive Council on Wednesday
approved the plan by the Ministry of Petroleum Resources to rehabilitate the
Port Harcourt Refinery with $1.5bn.
