The continuous destruction of crude oil refining “Spotfire” sites in the Niger Delta makes no economic sense and offers no enduring benefit to the furtherance of operations in the oil and gas sector.
This is the reason given by the Nigeria Union of Local Government Employees when it appealed to the Federal Government to stop the Navy from continuing the practice of destroying such refining sites.
The president of NULGE, Ambali Olatunji appealed at a press conference in Abuja to mark the end of its National Executive Council meeting.
“Destroying those sites has no benefits whatsoever for the country’s oil and gas sector as well as for Nigerians at large.
“Instead of destroying those refining sites, they should be licensed properly and mandated to pay taxes.
“This will create job opportunities and be sources of revenue earnings.”
“If the multinationals are leaving the country, we should encourage individuals that are willing and capable to do it in Nigeria.
“If we can work on those areas, coupled with minimum wage, the effects of fuel subsidy removal will go down.”
