  The Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) was established in 1977 as the state-owned oil company of Nigeria. The corporation was tasked with overseeing the exploration, production, and distribution of petroleum products in the country. As part of its mandate, the NNPC also set up three refineries in Nigeria to process crude oil into refined petroleum products for domestic consumption. The first of these refineries, the Port Harcourt Refinery, was built in 1965 and has a capacity of 60,000 barrels per day. The second refinery, the Warri Refinery, was completed in 1978 and has a capacity of 125,000 barrels per day. The third refinery, the Kaduna Refinery, was also completed in 1978 and has a capacity of 110,000 barrels per day. Initially, the refineries were successful in meeting the domestic demand for petroleum products. However, due to a combination of factors including poor maintenance, mismanagement, and corruption, the refineries soon began to deteriorate. As a resul...

  In recent years, the frustration and anger of youths and citizens towards the government's perceived bad governance have reached a boiling point in several countries. This phenomenon, if left unaddressed, can lead to widespread protests, instability, and even anarchy. By examining the experiences of countries where such grievances have spiraled out of control, we can draw valuable lessons to prevent a similar scenario in Nigeria.

Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo. Two names that have dominated the world of football for over a decade. From individual accolades to team success, these two players have redefined what it means to be a superstar in the sport. But as their careers begin to wind down, many are left wondering if anyone will ever be able to fill the void left by these two giants of the game.

By, Dr. Aiyeku Olufemi Samuel The value of human relationships lies in the depth of genuine connection, mutual respect, and shared values rather than in transactional exchanges. Unfortunately, many individuals today perceive relationships, especially in political and social contexts, as transactional.

Helping someone in their time of need should not create an obligation or debt. True assistance is given without the expectation of reward or political loyal...
