 ‘Empty barrels’ – Otti dismisses Uzor Kalu, Orji, Ikpeazu opposition gang-up Abia State Governor, Alex Otti, has urged Abians to disregard recent remarks by some leaders of the opposition in the state. Governor Otti who was speaking on Saturday at Seventh-Day Adventist Church, Umuoriehi, Umuahia North LGA, during the dedication of the church building, said that those who are gathering against him were the same people that failed to develop the state in the past. Otti was reacting to an alliance formed against his re-election by former Abia governors Orji Uzor Kalu, Theodore Orji and Okezie Ikpeazu. The governor slammed the opposition members for pursuing personal interest above the collective development of Abia, declaring that every gathering they are making against him would collapse. He said, “Pastor Uguru made reference to the noise that you may have been hearing in the last few days. “I want us to just dismiss it as noise, you know, and it’s always the empty barrel that makes...

Marketers to sell products from Dangote Refinery from January

The Executive Secretary of Major Oil Marketers Association of Nigeria (MOMAN), Mr. Clement Isong, has said that marketers will start selling refined products by the Dangote Petroleum Refinery from January 2024. He stated that the marketers would first start selling Automotive Gas Oil (AGO) also known as diesel, and JetA1 or aviation fuel in January while fuel could be sold towards the end of first quarter or in the second quarter of the year.

In an interview with New Telegraph, yesterday, he also said the marketers were excited that refined products will start being sold from the r650,000 barrels per day (BPD) integrated refinery in the Lekki Free Zone, Lagos, Nigeria. Isong said: “There is a startup process and they are currently in that process. So we know that they will sell AGO and JETA1 in early January because it is that start-up process that will produce products. “They will start refining and products will come out as they meet the necessary mechanical adjustments to improve the efficiency and the yield. So, they will do that first run, and the second run as the test runs. Products will come out which they will sell. But to reach full efficiency, they will continue to make adjustments until they have reached full efficiency.

“We will sell products from the refinery in early January. They may take a few weeks to make adjustments and they start pushing out. I expect maybe later on, we are told, in the next quarter, they will now fix the FCC, units will begin to yield petrol and then we will get petrol later on, maybe towards the end of first quarter or in the second quarter of the year. But they have crude and the crude is not just sitting there. The processes have started. “The startup process has commenced and we will start selling products in January. We are very excited about that.”
