The Labor Party (LP) candidate in the 2023 presidential elections, Peter Obi, has congratulated the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation Limited (NNPCL) for revamping the Port Harcourt refinery.
Obi said this on his X handle this Wednesday, saying Nigerians now await the corresponding impact and benefits on pump prices and the overall economy.
He says while Nigerians acknowledge the achievement as a step in the right direction, it is crucial to emphasize the importance of transparency in the operations of the NNPC.
Obi says Nigerians deserve clarity and accountability regarding the management of the nation’s vital oil resources, to ensure that the benefits of increased refining capacity reaches every Nigerian and that gains are used to support long-term development of the country.
