House of Representatives has resolved to pursue a comprehensive audit of funds so far spent on the maintenance and rehabilitation of the nation’s refineries.
The motion for the probe which was moved by Hon. Onofiok Luke from Akwa Ibom State, is to include Port Harcourt, Warri, Kaduna refineries.
It was considered and adopted by the House. The probe is coming on the heels of the approval of $1.5 billion by the Federal Executive Council, FEC for the rehabilitation of the Port Harcourt refinery.
Incidentally, the singular approval has attracted widespread criticisms from many quarters which argued the money was far bigger than the worth or value of the facility itself.
