The President of Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN), Festus Osifo, has confirmed that Port Harcourt Refinery is working.
Festus Osifo, who is also the National President of the Trade Union Congress (TUC), said the refinery has been producing petrol, diesel, kerosine and other products since it came on stream last week.
He stated this on Tuesday at PENGASSAN’s National Executive Committee (NEC) meeting in Abuja.
Clarifying questions from newsmen on the true position of the refinery, Osifo explained, “When they blend this, it gives us PMS. But what we should be interested in, as material, is that does Port Harcourt refinery produces AGO today. The answer is yes.
“Does Port Harcourt Refinery produce DPK today? The answer is yes. Does Port Harcourt Refinery produce PMS today? The answer is yes.
“So the processes are not much of our concern. The man on the street does not understand what CTU is.”
The PENGASSAN President continued, “The man of the street does not understand what is classified. What the man of the street understands is PMS, kerosene, and diesel. Are we getting these from Port Harcourt? The answer is yes.”
According to the Nation, Osifo called for speedy work to complete the rehabilitation of the country’s refineries. He further advised the privatization of the country’s refineries.
