President Muhammadu Buhari has recalled that during his time as a military Head of State, all Nigeria’s refineries were working optimally. He lamented that it was disgraceful thing that none of the country’s refineries currently performs up to 50 per cent capacity.

Buhari, according to a statement by his Special Adviser on Media and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, spoke on Friday while receiving a delegation from Eni, led by the Chief Upstream Officer, Mr. Antonio Vella, at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.

He stated that in the early 80’s when he was in power, Nigeria was exporting 100,000 barrels of petrol after meeting the demands of local market.

He said, “In my first coming, all our refineries were working. Port Harcourt used to refine 60,000 barrels per day, and it was later upgraded to 100,000 barrels.

“Kaduna and Warri were also working optimally, and we used to satisfy the demands of the local market. We also exported 100,000 barrels of refined petrol.

“Now, no refinery is performing up to 50%. It is a disgraceful thing.”
