Sunny Ibanga wants Buhari to sanitise the oil sector
-Give private investors timeline to set up refineries
A chieftain of the All Progressives Congress, APC, Chief Sunny Ibanga says the Federal Government should conclude the arrangements with private investors to build refineries in the country to discourage the importation of refined petroleum product.
He said since there has been interest in the past from such investors, any conditionality that could cause a delay should be jettisoned to ensure effective and immediate implementation since it has been discovered that sabotage by certain Nigerians led to the present fuel scarcity, hence 'sacred cows' should not be accommodated again.
Chief Ibanga, who made the appeal while hosting the Muhammadu Buhari Osinbajo Dynamic Support Group, MBO State, Zonal and a National delegation at his country home in Utu Ikot Ekpenyong near Ikot Ekpene in Akwa Ibom State commended President Mohammadu Buhari for taking positive steps to stem the crisis in the petroleum sector.
He said when Nigeria have more refineries the constant fuel crisis will be reduced and jobs will be created than the present situation where the government is spending millions of naira on importation of the product.
"We should support any move by the government to curtail sharp practices which resulted in the present hardship Nigerians are facing. The fuel problem is affecting every sector of the economy, now the common man can't buy foodstuffs in the market because prices are skyrocketing every day, all due to the fuel scarcity issue," he said.
The elder statesman, who donated a secretariat to the State MBO commended the officers for their tenacity and commitment to promoting the programmes of President Buhar's administration adding that such selfless sacrifice shall not be in vain as Nigeria will become great again.
"I am really impressed to see young and matured men come together to do all these things without placing money as a yard stick. Today the values we have handed over to our youths are discouraging. People no longer believe in morals any more, unless we returned to the days honesty was the best policy, where people valued integrity above everything, we will keep running in circles.
"Is good that we now have a group of serious Nigerians, who have taken it upon themselves to promote good values and respect people with integrity. I am happy because things are changing for the best." he added.
The State coordinator of MBO, Mr. Emmanuel Isidore thanked chief Ibanga for his support, promising that members of the group will not join the bandwagon to celebrate corruption and impunity.
