… Urges FG and NNPCL to Resuscitate Warri and Kaduna Refineries

The Rivers State House of Assembly at its 78th Legislative Sitting of the Second Session of the Tenth Assembly, on Tuesday, debated on a Motion and resolved to commend President Bola Tinubu for revitalizing the Port Harcourt Refinery.

Moving the Motion to commend President Bola Tinubu, the honourable Member, representing Eleme Constituency, Hon. Igwe Aforji, applauded President Tinubu for his uncommon leadership in providing the needed logistical support for the resuscitation and revitalisation of the Port Harcourt Refinery.

Members in their debate expressed optimism that the coming back on stream of the Refinery would also reanimate small scale businesses in the area. Supporting the Motion, Members urged the House to resolve as prayed by the mover of the Motion.

Commenting on the Motion, the Speaker of the House, Rt. Hon. Martin Amaewhule, lauded President Tinubu’s leadership style, adding that reviving a Refinery that has been in comatose for decades speaks volumes of Mr. President’s commitment to energy sufficiency in the country.

In line with the prayers of the Motion, the House resolved to commend President Bola Tinubu; and urged the Federal Government and the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited to redouble efforts in tackling energy inadequacy by resuscitating the ailing Warri and Kaduna Refineries.
