Former President Olusegun Obasanjo has for the first time spoken on the 100 day old government of President Bola Tinubu, challenging him on one of the promises made.
The issue is about the Port Harcourt Refinery, which Tinubu said will be operational in December.
The refinery is at present undergoing a major overhaul with a loan of $1.5 billion from AfricaExim Bank.
But Obasanjo expressed scepticism that thhe refinery will work by December 2023.
In an interview with The Cable Online Newspaper, Obasanjo emphasised his belief that the nation’s refineries would never function efficiently as long as they remained under government ownership.
Drawing on past experiences, Obasanjo shared insights into the challenges facing Nigeria’s refinery sector.
