A former senator, Dino Melaye has described the approval of $1.5 billion by the President Muhammadu Buhari’s led Federal Government for the renovation of the Port Harcourt refinery as “satanic”.
Melaye, who represented the Kogi West Senatorial District in the 8th Assembly, stated this in a video via his twitter handle @dino_melaye on Thursday.
He said that it is sad that the Federal Government wants to renovate a dead Port Harcourt refinery with $1.5 billion.
According to Melaye, the move is to embezzle the approved money by those involved in the project.
He called on President Buhari to immediately reverse the “wicked” decision.
In his words, “It is sad to note that the Federal the Government wants to spend 1.5 billion dollars to renovate Port Harcourt Refinery,
“They want to use N720 billion to renovate a dead refinery, because Port Harcourt Refinery is dead.
“Are you using $1.5 billion for the embalmment of the dead refinery? Because this money is going to be spent on a dead refinery.
“When will this stealing stop in this country? When will this inconsiderate corruption stop in this country?
“As anti-corruption network, as person of patriotism, we call on President Muhammadu Bbuhari to immediately reverse this satanic and wicked decision.
“Those who are ready to benefit from this stealing, we are waiting and we are watching.
“We have no other country to call our own and we will not keep quite in the midst of this corruption”.
