President Bola Tinubu, has been urged to within seven days, sack and investigate the activities of Mr Kyari-led NNPCL to build Nigerian’s trust in government.
A group under the auspices of the Tinubu/Shettima Mandate Actualization Group in a statement issued by Abiodun Abdulrazaq and Aliyu Muh’d, President and Secretary of the group said, “If this problem is not resolved in 7 days, we will have no option but to call Nigerians out to peacefully occupy our streets until normalcy and enduring solutions are preferred in the oil and gas sector and continue to call for sack, arrest and investigation of Kyari for subjecting millions of Nigerians to undeserving sufferings.”
The group noted that while Emefiele is facing the music of his actions and evil against Nigerians, Mr President decided to reward Mele Kyari with an extended appointment.
The group noted with concern the unjustifiable fuel scarcity that is bitting hard in most parts of Nigeria.
It noted that the scarcity is coming at a time when Nigerians are still struggling to adjust to the reality of the Petroleum Motor Spirit subsidy removal and depreciation of the Naira, saying that it has resulted in a general increase in the prices of goods. Despite the recent appreciation of the Naira, marketers have refused to cut down the prices of their products.
The statement noted that the ongoing scarcity would certainly add to the burden of inflation as the cost of transportation has already risen by over 100% in the areas assessed, saying that the resultant effect will lead to hunger in the land as most families can no longer fend for themselves.
The group noted that it has continued to generate anti-Tinubu and APC commentaries, thereby putting the party in an extremely bad light.
The group said it is particularly sad that the Mele Kolo Kyari-led NNPCL, the sole importer of the product promised Nigerians that the Port Harcourt Refinery would be ready in March 2024, the month has come and gone.
It said that the inability of Kyari to meet up with the timeline of the revamping of the industry despite adequate funding ought to have resigned or be sacked, if Nigerians are serious as a country.
It noted that the ongoing Scarcity is attributed to the ongoing turnaround maintenance of refineries across Europe, pointing out that serious regulator or business ought to have stocked a large volume of products that will sustain Nigerians throughout the dark period.
The group reminded President Tinubu that Naira confiscation wasn’t the only strategy deployed by his adversaries in the last administration to frustrate his ambition, stressing that fuel scarcity was also a veritable tool deployed.
While Emefiele is facing the music of his actions and evil against Nigerians, the group said it is sad that Mr President decided to reward Mele Kyari with an extended appointment.
