Atiku Abubakar
Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) presidential candidate Alhaji Atiku
Abubakar yesterday in Kaduna reiterated his resolve to privatise the
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC), if elected President in
Saturday’s polls.
Atiku, who spoke while interacting with stakeholders from the 23
local government areas of Kaduna State at the Trade Fair Complex, said
his resolve to sell the national asset was informed by the fact that
NNPC has since inception in 1963 failed to meet its expectation of
refining crude oil for the country’s consumption.
He insisted that he would sell off the NNPC to provide more development.
His decision, Atiku added, was based on the fact that only very few
were benefiting from the operations of the national asset at the
expense of the Nigerian people.
