Atedo Peterside calls $1.5bn refinery bill brazen adventure

Nigeria now object of laughter, mockery after presidential poll says Peterside

Leading banker and outspoken campaigner, Atedo Peterside, has asked the federal government to halt the outrageous plan to spend $1.5bn to repair the Port Harcourt refinery.

In a tweet, Atedo said “FG should halt $1.5bn approval for repair of Port Harcourt refinery and subject this brazen & expensive adventure to an informed national debate.

“Many experts prefer that this refinery is sold “as is” by BPE to core-investors with proven capacity to repair it with their own funds.”
