 AAC SEEK FURTHER INVESTIGATION INTO ON SOWORE IN EKITI The African Action Congress, AAC, has called for further investigation into the reported attack on Omoyele Sowore and other party members in Ekiti State, despite the arrest of eleven suspects. In a statement by its national publicity secretary, Rex Elanu, the AAC says new video footage has emerged which it believes could help identify more persons involved in the incident. The party has expressed concern over the handling of CCTV recordings from the restaurant where the incident occurred, and alleges that some stolen phones were traced to the governor's lodge in Ekiti State. It is seeking an independent investigation into these claims, the handling of recovered items and the circumstances surrounding the incident. The AAC has also called for the arrest and prosecution of any other persons found to have been involved, and demanded an investigation into the conduct of any security officers who may have acted unprofessionally.

 Economist says Port Harcourt refinery totally obsolete


Despite the huge sums of money said to have been spent on the Turn-Around Maintenance (TAM) of the moribund Port Harcourt refinery, a Nigerian Economist and Energy expert, Kelvin Emmanuel has pointedly posited that the facility and others in Kaduna, Eleme and Warri will not be operational anytime soon.

Emmanuel said this in an interview with Channels Television breakfast programme Morning Brief on Monday. 

He insists that the Port Harcourt refinery will not come back on stream, stating that the best it can offer Nigeria is to operate as a petrol blending plant


According to the Energy expert and co-founder of Dairy Hills, the huge sums of money spent in the so-called rehabilitation of the Port Harcourt refinery running into billions of dollars have gone down the drains as the refinery will not become operational again because it could not be fixed.

He insists that the claims by the federal government through its agencies that the Port Harcourt refinery has been technically repaired is false, arguing that the best the refinery will be used is for petrol blending plant. 

Emmanuel also painted a a gloomy picture of the cost of Premium Motor Spirits (PMS), saying that the pump price will not come down soon because Nigeria does not have pipeline infrastructure to evacuate crude oil and refined products across the country hence the retail prices are high because when the marketers add up all the charges from the landing cost of products to trucking and heap them on the end users.
