How will you make sure the public knows what happens with crude oil barrels given to refineries?
I will make sure we know how many barrels receive support, which refinery receives them, what is produced, what it costs the taxpayer and what benefit you receive. There will be no mystery barrels, no endless claims, and no blank cheques. This is how we will bring transparency to crude oil support for refineries.

“We will know how many barrels receive support, which refinery receives them, what is produced, what it costs the taxpayer and what benefit Nigerians receive. “No mystery barrels. No endless claims. No blank cheques.”
Atiku said Nigeria’s refining future would depend heavily on private capital and that the commercial viability of domestic refineries must therefore be protected. “Dangote Refinery, modular refineries and other Nigerian investments must remain viable. We want more refineries, more investment, more competition and more refining capacity. “But the Nigerian consumer must also benefit from the fact that this country produces crude oil. “We reject the false choice between a profitable refinery and an affordable pump price.
