THE Senator Representing Delta Central Senatorial District, Senator Ede Dafinone, has applauded President Bola Tinubu for the re-opening and commencement of operations by Warri Refinery and Petrochemical Company, located in Ekpan.
He also tasked Nigerians to continue to support Mr. President as “most of the perceived harsh economic policies, particularly the removal of petroleum subsidy and the floating of the Naira have started yielding positive results and more of such results would be recorded in 2025”.
The statement read “As we step into the year 2025, I extend warm New Year greetings to the Urhobo Nation, Deltans and all Nigerians. This is a time for renewed hope, resilience, and optimism as we reflect on the past year and look forward to the opportunities and challenges that lie ahead. I assure you that brighter days are coming, and together, we will make 2025 a year of tangible progress and prosperity for our people.
“I want to specially commend President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his bold leadership and the decisive actions taken to reposition our economy. A key milestone in this journey is the commencement of operations at the Warri Refinery and Petrochemical Company, located in Ekpan, in Urhobo land.
This monumental achievement will significantly boost domestic refining capacity, create jobs, reduce the pressure on foreign exchange, and bring much-needed relief to millions of Nigerians. I urge the people of Delta Central and Nigerians at large to continue to support the Tinubu administration, as its economic policies are beginning to yield results, and more of these successes will become evident in 2025.
“For the Urhobo Nation, 2025 presents an opportunity to strengthen our unity, deepen our commitment to progress, and collectively build on the foundations laid in the past year. The commencement of operations at the Warri Refinery is a testament to the federal government’s focus on revitalizing critical infrastructure, and as stakeholders, we must remain steadfast in supporting initiatives that bring development to our land.
To my constituents in Delta Central, I remain committed to providing effective representation and advocating for the development of the areas as I will continue to collaborate with relevant stakeholders to attract federal projects, create employment opportunities, and ensure that our people benefit from the dividends of democracy. Together, we will build an Urhobo Nation that reflects the true potential of the Urhobo people and serves as a beacon of progress in Nigeria.
