The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Ltd) has shut down the Port Harcourt Refinery.
It announced the immediate shutdown in a statement on Saturday by the Chief Corporate Communications Officer, Femi Soneye.
This is said to be as part of a scheduled maintenance exercise set to begin today, May 24, 2025.
NATIONAL POST reports that this comes months after the Refinery was said to have been rehabilitated under the immediate past GMD/CEO of NNPCL, Mele Kyari.
However, controversy continued to trail the reported rehabilitation, with many saying it was all a hoax.
