    Why Can’t FG Fix Its Refineries All These Years And Make Dangote Irrelevant? – Agbakoba

    Chief Olisa Agbakoba (SAN), a former president of the Nigerian Bar Association (NBA) has faulted calls by some Nigerians that the federal government should take over the Dangote refinery.

    Prof. Itse Sagay (SAN), former chairman of the Presidential Advisory Committee Against Corruption (PACAC) in an interview with TheScrutinyNG had said the Nigerian constitution empowers the federal government to take over the refinery and then pay compensation to the owner, Aliko Dangote.

    “Honestly, we are going through a sort of emergency right now. Under section 305, the Nigerian government has power to take over the refinery and pay appropriate compensation to the owner” Sagay had said.

    However, in a chat with our correspondent, Agbakoba said it is wrong for the FG to take over another man’s sweat just because it is alleged that he is cheating Nigerians.

    “But why take over what a private individual built ? Why can’t the FG fix its refineries all these years and make Dangote irrelevant”.

    “Why allow an efficient businessman hold you to ransom when there is a very simple alternative?”.

    “The simple alternative for us all is this – let Nigeria work . Let there be light . Let there be food . Let there be water. Let there be jobs . Let there be money schools health care roads etc” .

    “This is how to render Dangote irrelevant and not as Suggested by taking over another man’s sweat even if the sweat is to cheat us . Let the FG do its own refineries and bluff Dangote”.
