I'M CAUTIOUS IN CONSIDERING DELIBERATE ATTEMPTS TO SABOTAGE DANGOTE REFINERY.-ATIKU.{


 I’m cautious in considering deliberate attempts to sabotage Dangote Refinery – Atiku


Former Vice President Atiku Abubakar says he’s being cautious in considering any deliberate attempts to impede the progress of the Dangote refinery.


Atiku urged Nigerians to take resolute actions to provide reassurance that both internal and external forces are not collaborating to prevent the nation from reaping the benefits of the refinery.


ā€œEach parent eagerly awaiting the arrival of a child will dutifully undertake the necessary measures to ensure that the nurturing and development of this precious blessing remain a primary focus. This fundamental principle applies equally to investments, whether they be local or international in nature.


ā€œWith this understanding, I am cautious in considering any deliberate attempts to impede the progress of the Dangote Refinery, a significant private sector project positioned to meet our energy and forex needs.


ā€œAlongside numerous fellow citizens of goodwill, I call upon all Nigerians to take resolute actions to provide reassurance that both internal and external forces are not collaborating to prevent us from reaping the benefits promised by this eagerly anticipated transformative endeavour,ā€ Atiku posted on X.


The statement comes after Dangote Refinery said it is yet to receive 26 million barrels of crude allocation facilitated by the Nigerian Upstream Petroleum Regulatory Commission, NUPRC.


NUPRC had claimed it facilitated 26 million barrels of crude oil allocation to Dangote Refinery in the first quarter of 2024.


However, Dangote Refinery said that NUPRC had only facilitated the purchase of one crude cargo from a domestic producer.


ā€œAside from the term supply we bilaterally negotiated with NNPC, so far NUPRC has only facilitated the purchase of one crude cargo from a domestic producer. The rest of the cargoes we have processed were purchased from international traders,ā€ Dangote Refinery stated.


The company went on to urge NUPRC to facilitate the implementation of the Petroleum Industry Act.
