Porthacourt Refinery comes on stream

.....As Tinubu Directs for others to be reactivated

President Bola Tinubu has congratulated the Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) on the successful revitalization of the Port Harcourt refinery. The refinery's revitalization, marked by the official commencement of petroleum product loading on November 26, 2024, is a significant milestone in Nigeria's quest for energy sufficiency.¹

President Tinubu acknowledged the crucial role played by former President Muhammadu Buhari in initiating the comprehensive rehabilitation of Nigeria's refineries. He also expressed gratitude to the African Export-Import Bank for its confidence in financing this critical project.

The President commended the leadership of NNPC Limited's Group Chief Executive Officer, Mr. Mele Kyari, for his dedication and commitment to overcoming challenges and achieving this milestone. With the successful revival of the Port Harcourt refinery, President Tinubu has urged NNPC Limited to expedite the scheduled reactivation of both the second Port Harcourt refinery and the Warri and Kaduna refineries.

The reactivation of these refineries will significantly enhance domestic production capacity, making Nigeria a major energy hub. The gas sector will also enjoy unprecedented attention from the administration. President Tinubu underscored his administration's determination to repair the nation's refineries, aiming to eradicate the perception of Nigeria as a major crude oil producer that lacks the ability to refine its own resources for domestic consumption.

Highlighting the values of patience, integrity, and accountability in rebuilding the nation's infrastructure, President Tinubu called upon individuals, institutions, and citizens to maintain focus and uphold trust in their service to the nation. In alignment with the Renewed Hope Agenda, the President reaffirmed his administration's commitment to achieving energy sufficiency, enhancing energy security, and boosting export capacity for Nigeria.

The successful revitalization of the Port Harcourt refinery is a testament to the administration's commitment to rebuilding Nigeria's energy sector. As the nation moves forward, it is essential to recognize the importance of patience, integrity, and accountability in achieving sustainable development.

In conclusion, President Tinubu's congratulatory message to the NNPCL on the successful revitalization of the Port Harcourt refinery marks a significant milestone in Nigeria's quest for energy sufficiency. As the administration continues to work towards achieving energy sufficiency, enhancing energy security, and boosting export capacity, Nigerians can look forward to a brighter future.
