Finally waking up to his responsibility of addressing the black soot problem
Aren't all those piloting Nigeria's affairs, ashamed of themselves? We have 4 refineries,but none is working, yet our people can refine oil locally. We generate electricity that we can't distribute all, we're supplying 3 other countries, they're enjoying UPS, we're in darkness.
You can compared performing governor with rubber stamp ones.
correct Govonor
When are we going to breath a good air in PH.
But I thought the said Refinery can't work in Nigeria, but individuals are making it work dey are complaining.
