The Mayor of Urhoboland and head of the Association of Urhobo Mayoral Family Crown (AUMFC), His Excellency Eshanekpe Israel, a.k.a. Akpodoro, has commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu and the Chief Group Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL), Engr. Mele Kyari, for the successful commencement of petroleum product loading at the Port Harcourt Refinery.

In a statement following the announcement of the refinery’s resumed operations on Tuesday, Akpodoro described President Tinubu as a “jinx breaker” who has achieved what previous istrations could not, “President Tinubu has demonstrated capacity and dexterity,” Akpodoro stated, noting that successive istrations had turned the refinery repairs into a financial drain, failing to revitalize the facility despite borrowing billions for its maintenance.

The Mayor further criticized past istrations, particularly those of the Peoples’ Democratic Party (PDP), accusing them of using the refinery as a “conduit pipe to drain national wealth” and failing to deliver results.

He also highlighted the shortcomings of the immediate past APC-led istration under Muhammadu Buhari, which, despite funding efforts, could not operationalize the refinery due to systemic corruption. “Today, the man we voted for against all odds has delivered a legacy project to Nigerians,” Akpodoro declared, praising Tinubu’s leadership and vision.

He expressed optimism that with the refinery’s operation at a capacity of 65,000 barrels per day, Nigeria’s energy crisis would ease and market forces might drive down fuel prices.

The Mayor also lauded Mele Kyari for his resilience, patriotism, and leadership in managing a sensitive corporation like the NNPCL. He pointed out that Kyari has navigated challenges such as oil theft and public mistrust, demonstrating statesmanship in ensuring the refinery’s progress despite sabotage attempts aimed at maintaining the dependency on fuel importation. “This milestone gives hope to Nigerians that a brighter future is possible,” Akpodoro concluded.

The resumption of operations at the Port Harcourt Refinery marks a significant step in Nigeria’s efforts to enhance energy self-sufficiency and reduce reliance on imported petroleum products.

We are not surprised. He did it in Lagos and he is doing it again.

lgb0s have been having running stomach since the announcement of the refinery was made.

They always pray for Nigeria to fail so that everyone would regret not voting for their fake messiah with Biafrâ agenda.

As e be now, (Joshua 24:15) as for me and my household, we shall vote Tinubu 2027

It honestly seems great that they pulled it off. I mean since the 20th century no one has seemed to figure out the refineries' solutions. However, it will only mean a thing for Nigerians if it plays a role to reduce the price of fuel, otherwise no use celebrating it. It will not even be worth a campaign point if it doesn't help reduce fuel price. Driving down inflation and strengthening the Naira are the major achievement he should in fact be looking at to get these kinds of commendation.



Anyway, if you care to make some dollar cash as a side hustle. Check my siggy, profile, and learn about ST, Cbex. It's about the only thing I can guarantee helps people get daily 10k+ lately

Wake up! when we were buying at 185, there was a subsidy fraud and we were borrowing to pay for subsidy. Now, subsidy is gone forever. The oil sector is fully deregulated.

WHY THIS COUNTRY CAN HARDLY EVER WORK.

SYCOPHANCY IS TOO MUCH!

A LITTLE POSITION SOMEONE GETS, HE STARTS PRAISING THE GOVERNMENT SO AS TO GET CONTRACTS AND OTHER THINGS.

WHY ARE YOU PRAISING TINUBU SO EARLY WHEN PETROL PRICE HASN'T EASED?

THE SAME QUESTION I'M ASKING HIM IS ALSO DIRECTED TO THEIR NAIRALAND-BASED COUNTERPARTS. WHY ARE WE THIS SELFISH AND FOOLISH IN THIS COUNTRY?

THIS IS HOW WE MAKE OUR LEADERS FEEL THAT ALL IS WELL WHEN NOTHING IS OK.

TINUBU GOVERNMENT HAS LIED TO US TOO MANY TIMES. SO, WE CAN'T BELIEVE HIM SO EARLY. ALL WE WANT TO SEE IS THE IMPACT OF ALL THESE THINGS ON THE COMMONERS ON THE STREET.

If you own any business or plan to have, you can't afford not to watch this video.

Tinubu is indeed a jinx breaker.

All the past governments that came and went, the PH refinery saga was like a national anthem for them.

Only for Tinubu to come and break that jinx in record time.

You need to wake up.

If we are paying more for fuel now than we were paying during the subsidy regime it means one thing..

A shift in the people chopping the money. Simple!

It means Tinubu has removed the loot from the subsidy cabal to another cabal.

Wake up.

Subsidy fraud: who are the fraudsters, why not arrest them. So the solution to a bad tooth is to uproot all the teeth

Borrowing? Have you stopped borrowing? Have tinub borrowed less than buhari borrowed in 1year?
Ok the one tinubu is borrowing, what has he done with it

Oil sector deregulation? Am sorry for you, you just spoke like a layman. Oya go and enter the oil business na.

Don't mind the clowns.

Tinubu is brave to remove subsidy Tinubu is brave to remove subsidy.

But he's not brave to arrest one single subsidy thief
Even one!

That's what lowlifes who think less of their own humanity want to believe.

Tinubu is a master of gradual deception.
In order that the deception may succeed it must be habitual and uninterrupted.

This one who deceives will always find those who allow themselves to be deceived.

I weep for Nigeria and it's easily deceived people
