Nigeria: First Private Refinery Kicks Off
21 APRIL 2006This Day (Lagos)


By Charles Onyekamuo

Awka — History was yesterday made in the country as the president Chief Olusegun Obasanjo performed the foundation laying ceremony of Nigeria's first Private refinery, Orient Petroleum Refinery (OPR) at Nsugbe-Umuleri, Anambra East Council Area of Anambra State.

The parent company Orient Petroleum Resource ltd, (OPRL) was licensed in June, 2002, by the Federal Government to construct a Private refinery with a 55,000 b/d, while at the same time granting the company two petroleum prospecting license blocks to provide a dependable source of crude oil feed stock to Orient Refinery as a way of providing long term security for the huge investment in the refinery.

When it comes to economics and Finance Administration, leave it for peter obi.

If not for envy, tell me why a man with such visionary leadership should not pilot the affairs of this nation?

You are actually wrong wink

The first private refinery was launched in 2002 by President Obasanjo in Bayelsa
https://allafrica.com/stories/200210230287.html

On the mandate of Asiwaju Tinubu I stand.
Asiwaju Tinubu is the only one with pacesetting records in public service and he is the best among all the candidates.

Please just admit that you are wrong wink

Some of those companies have been acquired, merged or have gone insolvent but they were the first and got inaugurated almost 5 years before orient even was formed so there is no way orient can be even among the first 20 or 50 possibly.
Why? Between that 2002 and 2006, other private refinery equally came on stream.

Kikikiki...he is just a fault-finder.

Many don't know of PO's achievements because he certainly doesn't see serving people as achievement.

Peter Obi is not a politician, he is a humanist that believes society will be better in his lifetime .His mindset is different unlike most people because while average Nigerian look for where gain is, PO seek for where there is no gain and then turn it to value.Even if you try to pour dirt on him he turns it around to good

When Peter OBi said he will move Nigeria from a consumption country to a producing country, he wasn't joking about it.

Go and rest. You are the illiterate. Did federal government license orient to refine groundnut oil.

After reading all that is written above u still choose ignorance out of envy.

Why does orient still retain their license if they are not active?
