Conglomeration of Northern Singers Condemns Rarara’s Antics Against Former President Buhari
A conglomerate of Northern singers, known as MURYA Daya, has distanced itself and its members across Nigeria from the antics of a popular political singer, Dauda Kahutu Rarara, who, during a press conference, condemned the administration of his former paymaster, President Muhammad Buhari.
The head of the conglomerate of Northern singers, Ali Isa Jita, stated this while addressing journalists at the Nigeria Union of Journalists center in Kano.
Ali Jita, surrounded by members of the association “MURYA DAYA,” said that the entire Northern singers, who are cultured and well-mannered, do not support Dauda Kahutu Rarara’s remarks against the immediate past administration of President Muhammadu Buhari.
“He is not representing us, either individually or as a group. He did it on behalf of himself and the staff of his office, not Northern singers.”
On his part, the spokesperson of the association said they do not support Rarara’s stance of criticizing the administration of President Muhammad Buhari or any Northern elder, or even the administration of President Bola Ahmad Tinubu.
El Muaz said nobody is perfect, but for Rara to claim that President Buhari did not do anything is callous and should not be considered by any discerning individual. He noted that government is a continuous process; therefore, Nigerians should ignore Rarara as he does not represent us.
The singers stated that Rara’s boast of contributing more than anybody to the success of the APC government at the federal level is laughable, and they will continue to uphold the dignity of Northern elders. They mentioned that they will soon find the time to visit former President Muhammadu Buhari.
The vice-chairman of MURYA DAYA, Ado Gwanja, called on Islamic clerics to be cautious about their statements regarding singers and refrain from equating them with dogs, as it is not in line with the teachings of Islam.

Port-Harcourt Refinery Fully Operational- Says NNPC
The attention of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd) has been drawn to reports in a section of the media alleging that the Old Port Harcourt Refinery which was re-streamed two months ago has been shut down.
We wish to clarify that such reports are totally false as the refinery is fully operational as verified a few days ago by former Group Managing Directors of NNPC.
Preparation for the day’s loading operation is currently ongoing.
Members of the public are advised to discountenance such reports as they are the figments of the imagination of those who want to create artificial scarcity and rip-off Nigerians.

Port Harcourt Refinery Halts Production Less Than a Month After Resumption
Less than a month after the porthacourt appeared to have resumed production, the facility has stopped working.
It was gathered that the lifting of petrol actually stopped last Friday, December 13, as the 18-arm loading bay of the new Port Harcourt refinery was empty.
While about 18 trucks littered the stretch of the busy road leading to the refinery itself, nine trucks were spotted inside the parking yard, while the loading bay was empty.
Journalists who visited the refinery on Thursday, December 19, 2024, observed that the lifting of Premium Motor Spirit (petrol) had stopped completely.
The depot, which is usually a beehive of activities where tankers scramble for space at the parking yard, was a shadow of itself with literally no vehicular or human activity relating to operations.
This was after $1.5bn was approved in March 2021 and spent on the rehabilitation of the facility.
The inauguration of the 60,000 barrel per day production capacity plant by the Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, Mele Kyari, on Tuesday, November 26, 2024, was met with celebration and fanfare.
During the re-opening of the facility, there was lifting of petrol to the excitement of the cheering crowd.
However, less than 10 trucks of petrol were lifted that day as against widespread claims that about 200 trucks carried petrol out of the bay.
