Kyari promises to deliver all 4 Nigerian refineries before PMB leaves office

The new head of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), Mele Kyari, has made his first set of promises to Nigerians when he said his tenure will eradicate corruption throughout the oil and gas sector.

The NNPC boss also affirmed that he will deliver all four refineries in the country before the end of President Muhammadu Buhari’s second term

The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC)’s new group managing director, on Monday, July 8, said in Abuja “There will be no corruption without discretion.

“We will work with all stakeholders within the NNPC group to ensure there is no discretion in the system. “I recognise the weight of being a GMD of NNPC group. If anything I know there’s eternal accountability when I will stand before my creator to give a full account of all my actions.

“We will build this company to enable it to compete with its global peers. We are not saying we will not make mistakes along the way, but we will not make deliberate mistakes.

“To my family members, from today, if you accept any gift from anyone, then it is not from me. So those who want to give my family members gifts, let them know that my family members can never influence me.

“To the GMD Emeritus Dr Mikanti Baru, I can’t thank you enough. I will like you to just sit down and tell yourself that you have done the right thing. In the last three years, we have made giant strides under Dr Baru. I am an insider in many of the laudable achievements recorded under him. We are going to deliver on the expectations of Nigerians from this great corporation.

“We will deliver all our four refineries within the life of President Buhari’s administration. We shall seek strategic partnerships to ensure Nigeria becomes a net exporter of petroleum products. “I’ll like to thank President Buhari for giving me the opportunity to serve. It is a challenge and I promise to do this job with integrity. I will never do anything against the interest of this corporation.”
