After Failed Promises, Buhari Regime Says Refineries Will Be Rehabilitated By 2022


The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) says it will begin
full rehabilitation of the nations three refineries by January 2020.

The nation’s refineries are located in Port Harcourt, Warri and Kaduna.

The Group Managing Director (GMD) Malam Mele Kyari disclosed this on
Saturday in Port Harcourt during a facility tour to the Port Harcourt
refinery.

Kyari in a  statement said, “We will stick to time, we will deliver
this project by 2022. We will commence actual rehabilitation work in
January.

“We will do everything possible between October and December to close
out all necessary conditions for us to deliver on that project.

“I believe that with the support that we have from the shareholders –
the government of this country, the entire staff of this company and
the contractors, I believe it is doable and we will deliver the
project.”

The NNPC GMD added, "It’s no longer about business now, but a
reputation issue. For the original builders of the refinery, Tecmmont,
Eni/NAOC and NNPC, let us be conscious of the fact that our reputation
is at stake as far as this project is concerned.

“The NNPC leadership has promised this country that our refineries
will work, therefore, we must work not to disappoint over 200 million
Nigerian stakeholders.”

The Transitional Phase of African Poetry

The Transitional Phase The second phase, which we have chosen to call transitional, is represented by the poetry of writers like Abioseh Nicol, Gabriel Okara, Kwesi Brew, Dennis Brutus, Lenrie Peters and Joseph Kariuki. This is poetry which is written by people we normally refer to as modem and who may be thought of as belonging to the third phase. The characteristics of this poetry are its competent and articulate use of the received European language, its unforced grasp of Africa’s physical, cultural and socio-political environment and often its lyricism. To distinguish this type of poetry we have to refer back to the concept of appropriation we introduced earlier. At the simplest and basic level, the cultural mandate of possessing a people’s piece of the earth involves a mental and emotional homecoming within the physical environment. Poems like Brew’s ‘‘Dry season”, Okara’s “Call of the River Nun”, Nicol’s “The meaning of Africa” and Soyinka’s “Season”, to give a few examples,

The pioneering phase of African Poetry

The pioneering phase We have called the first phase that of the pioneers. But since the phrase “pioneer poets” has often been used of writers of English expression like Osadebay, Casely-Hayford and Dei-Anag, we should point out that our “pioneer phase” also includes Negritude poets of French expression. The poetry of this phase is that of writers in “exile” keenly aware of being colonials, whose identity was under siege. It is a poetry of protest against exploitation and racial discrimination, of agitation for political independence, of nostalgic evocation of Africa’s past and visions of her future. However, although these were themes common to poets of both English and French expression, the obvious differences between the Francophone poets and the Anglophone writers of the 1930s and 1940s have been generally noted. Because of the intensity with which they felt their physical exile from Africa, coupled with their exposure to the experimental contemporary modes of writing in F
