The New Nigeria People’s Party (NNPP) has raised strong alarm on an uncovered plan by the National Chairman of the All Prigressives Congress (APC) and former Kano State Governor, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje to create tension in Kano after the Appeal Court Judgment tomorrow.

In a statement issued in Abuja, the NNPP National Chairman, Hon. Abba Kawu Ali said Ganduje and his cohorts are planning to orchestrate violence in Kano.

“We are in receipt of a reliable information, that the APC National Chairman, Abdullahi Umar Ganduje and the APC Chairman, Kano State Chapter, Abdullahi Abbas have directed for Mobilisation of hired thugs to be deployed in strategic locations within the metropolis with a sole aim of causing mayhem in Kano if the Appeal Court outcome did not favour them”

The NNPP National Chairman recalled similar incidences during the 2023 general elections when thugs were mobilised to unleash violence in various places within the State including the NNPP Secretariat in Tudunwada local government where over 10 members of the party were burnt alive.

The party therefore called on all security agencies, to as a matter of urgency curtail the evil plan and ensure safety of lives and properties of people in the state.

#

“It is disheartening, that the APC National and State Chairmen are all out to create crisis in an environment they are supposed to protect at all cost” said Abba Kawu

We wish to call on all NNPP supporters and the good people of Kano State to remain calm and be law abiding before and after the Appeal Court ruling as we are very optimistic of justice and fairness.

The NNPP as party of peace, believes there cannot be development in an atmosphere of chaos and violence and therefore reiterates its call on the teaming supporters and good people of Kano State to ensure peaceful atmosphere and report any suspicious moves to security agencies.

Signed
Hon. Abba Kawu Ali

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.
