Best Era of Petroleum Sector Development Happened Under Obasanjo – President Buhari

President Muhammadu Buhari has lamented the lack of infrastructural investment in the petroleum sector since the 1970s.

The president maintained that the best development in the industry happened under the then General Olusegun Obasajo administration under which he served as commissioner for petroleum.

The president, who was in Ogun State for a two day visit, recalled that the then military government built all the refineries in the country and the country was even exporting exporting refined petroleum.

He also lauded the developmental strides of the Ogun state governor, senator Ibikunle Amosun describing the strides as ‘confusing and disorientating’.

Buhari, who recalled that Abeokuta was his first station as a commission officer in 1963 confessed that with what Amosun had done with the state, he cannot find his way around the state due to the giant transformations.
