Onuesoke |
Prominent chieftain of the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP and Environmental Expert, Chief Sunny Onuesoke has lamented nigeria's continued dependence on importation of "refined" petroleum products, describing it as embarrassing.
According to Onuesoke, a former gubernatorial aspirant in Delta state, stressed that the issue is embarrassing when considered that, "65 years after becoming an oil-producing country, Nigeria, Africa’s largest petroleum producer, is importing “refined” petroleum products.
The PDP Chieftain, therefore advised the management of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, to sanction staff who were involved in the importation of the adulterated fuel.He wondered which country or buyer on earth would “buy this type of product without a strict requirement for presentation of standard test reports both at the port of loading and port of discharge.”
Speaking in Lagos, he said the importation of the adulterated fuel was enough reason to sanction the staff involved in importation of the products.
“A standardized method should have been in place to confirm that products coming into the country are within the set-up ranges. If that has been the case, these imported dirty products should have been confirmed to meet the standard before releasing them to the public,” Onuesoke added
