He suggested that the federal government should engage the refinery to assist with the fuel subsidy program – if it will still go further with it.
The refinery is 60% currently funded by Dangote’s equity , and the remaining 40% by debts from banks -including the C.B.N.
Currently, the country depends heavily on importation to meet its fuel consumption needs. But He promised that when the refinery resumes fully, that there will be mass increment of job opportunities to tackle employment
