The Leader of INRI Evangelical Spiritual Church, Primate Elijah Ayodele, on Friday called on President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to destroy forces frustrating the smooth operation of Dangote Refinery and sack anyone who has failed to carry out their duties in the petroleum sector.<\/p>\n

Primate Ayodele said Dangote has tried his best by building a refinery to serve Nigeria and Africa but there are forces frustrating his efforts.<\/p>\n

In a statement by his media aide, Oluwatosin Osho, Ayodele said there is a strong cartel in the oil industry and that if care was not taken, the repaired refineries in Nigeria will shut down again because there are people working against its success.<\/p>\n

He said: \u2018\u2019There is already a problem in our petroleum sector. Dangote has tried his best but there are forces frustrating his efforts.<\/p>\n

\u201cEven if the FG repairs all these refineries, there are saboteurs that will work against the success. There is a cartel working for NNPC and the one NNPC is working for.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019In a couple of months, some of our refineries will shut down again because people are against the success. This government needs directives to know what to do and this is why this government will not get it right.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Minister of Petroleum doesn\u2019t know what he is doing; the GMD of NNPC doesn\u2019t know what he is doing. If these people don\u2019t take charge, petroleum will become N1,500\/litre in 2025.<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019Dangote should be commended for his efforts at building such a gigantic refinery. It\u2019s unfortunate that some people in government came from nowhere to discredit Dangote\u2019s refinery. These are things the government and those who stole Nigeria\u2019s money couldn\u2019t do. Even if Dangote stole Nigeria\u2019s money, he has utilized it very well.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u2018\u2019The government must do the right thing by reviewing NNPC activities and the Minister, Heineken Lokpobiri, who knows nothing.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe is one of the ministers that should be removed or transferred out of the sector with immediate effect, otherwise, Nigeria will buy petrol for N1,500 and they are going to import adulterated petroleum because of the Minister and NNPC\u2019s negligence,\u2019\u2019 he added.<\/p>\n
