The House of Representatives said it would press for the sack of the Group Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, Mele Kyari, if he did not cease, allegedly to constitute a spoke in the wheel of Dangote Refinery.
The Deputy Spokesman of the House, Philip Agbese, dropped this threat on Saturday at a press conference in Abuja where he said the green chamber would not hesitate to give Kyari the Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian Midstream and Downstream Petroleum Regulatory Authority, Mr Farouk Ahmed’s treatment.
Recall that the House urged President Bola Tinubu to dismiss Ahmed for making condemnatory remarks about Dangote refinery.
“We have been seeing many demarketing campaigns to discredit the Dangote Petroleum Refinery, and given the negative impact of this, which has caused panic in the country.
“It is on record that the House directed the President to sack the NMDPRA’s CEO.
“The House of Representatives will not hesitate to call for the dismissal of Mele Kyari if the attempt to destroy the refinery project, a national asset, does not stop immediately,” Agbese said.
