The minister of state for petroleum resources, Timipre Sylva, says Nigerians should hold him accountable \u201cfor every dollar, every cent\u201d spent on the rehabilitation of the Port Harcourt refinery.<\/strong><\/span><\/h6>\n <\/p>\n
He said President Muhammadu Buhari wants to leave behind a legacy of functional refineries for Nigerians.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Nigeria has four refineries \u2014 two in Port Harcourt and one each in Kaduna and Warri \u2014 with a combined capacity of 445,000 barrels per day. All four refineries are non-functional, after being shut down in 2020.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
On Wednesday, the federal executive council (FEC) meeting approved $1.5 billion for the rehabilitation of the Port Harcourt refinery.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The approval has since elicited critical reactions from various quarters, particularly from notable Nigerians like Atedo Peterside, Peter Obi, and Atiku Abubakar.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Speaking on Sunday during a Channels Television programme, Sylva said the Buhari administration means well.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cThey (Nigerians) can hold me accountable and hold this government accountable for every dollar, every cent on this refinery and ensure that we deliver a refinery that works,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cWhat President Muhammadu Buhari wants to leave as a legacy are refineries that are functional.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cThat is really where we are looking at because what is going to happen to those refineries will be decided by Nigerians and future administration.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201918 MONTHS TO COMPLETE REHABILITATION\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
The minister noted that the rehabilitation will take 18 months and the first phase will get the refinery to 90 percent operational capacity.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re not lying to Nigerians. We\u2019ve told you that this is going to be in three phases and the first phase is definitely going to be within the tenure of this administration,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cYou should hold us. It is 18 months and we are going to take the refinery to 90 percent of its main capacity and that is what you should hold us to.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
THREE SOURCES TO FUND REHABILITATION<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Sylva gave a breakdown of how the government intends to source the $1.5 billion required to repair the refinery.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cLet me tell you how this rehabilitation is going to be funded; it is not going to be all debts, we are not going to borrow all the monies that are going into the rehabilitation,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cNNPC is going to spend about $200 million from its internally generated revenue sources, while the federal appropriation will put in about $800 million and it is already broken down into three parts.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cThe 2020 appropriation will give $350 million, 2021 appropriation will give another $350 million, and 2022 appropriation will give another $100 million, making it all $800 million from appropriation, and then the rest of it will now come from Afrexim Bank.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u2018LOT OF GAINS FOR NIGERIANS\u2019<\/strong><\/p>\n <\/p>\n
Sylva said the rehabilitation of the refinery is \u201cone way the government can generate revenue to invest in other sectors of the economy\u201d.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He said the refinery will benefit Nigerians and be commercially-viable \u201cto produce profits for the government\u201d.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The minister added: \u201cThis rehabilitation will bring a lot of gains for Nigerians. First, we are gaining from savings in the foreign exchange end, savings from importation of premium motor spirit (PMS); and we will gain from the operations of the refineries itself.\u201d<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Sylva noted that the Port Harcourt refinery, which has the capacity to produce 210,000 barrels per day, cannot satisfy Nigeria\u2019s needs alone.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cThis refinery plus Dangote\u2019s refinery, Kaduna refinery and Warri refinery will more than satisfy Nigeria\u2019s requirements,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
\u201cWe are headed to a point where Nigeria will become a net exporter of refined petroleum products. So we will be able to satisfy Nigerians and also have excess in exporting these products.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
