Buhari Never Said He’ll Reduce Petrol Price To N40–David West Restates
dw

Former Minister of Petroleum, Tam David-West, shed more light to comments attributed to himself and Buhari which suggested that PMS at the pumps could be sold for as low as N40 per liter. “I wish to correct a wrong impression carried in the newspapers, entitled, “Buhari’ll reduce petrol to N40-David West.” I did not make such categorical statement and I’m sure that Gen. Buhari will agree with me that I could not have made such a categorical statement.” David-West told the Vanguard in his Ibadan residence. “Gen. Buhari and I have said it times without number that the phenomenon called subsidy is fraudulent. N40 per litre is my own figure which I have repeatedly used in all my write-ups and interviews.” “Nigeria can go directly to refinery owners. We have done it before during Buhari’s time.” When asked if he would avail his services in the petroleum sector if invited or recommend anyone who could be of service to Nigerians, David-West said it was God “who directs him and leads him on what to do next
“In 1990, I wrote on sabotage theory of Nigeria’s refineries which was published by Vanguard. Our refineries can work, but some people sabotage the refineries. It is not because we don’t have Nigerians who can repair it and turn things around. If that fails, the people who built refineries can repair it. If people in government do it, there will be no more importation of fuel. “I respect Gen. Buhari because he has much integrity and I believe that he would be a good leader. It is true that expectations of Nigerians are very high. No new leader can perform miracles. People should give him time and conducive atmosphere to perform. I don’t believe in 100 days in office, it is nonsense. If you are packing from one house to a new one, will 100 days be enough to settle down. How do you expect a sudden turn-around within 100 days when so much damage has been done for years. “But, it will not take too long before Nigeria would experience that change they crave for. Between the first six months and one year, people would feel that positive change,” he said
