The Christian Youth Forum of Nigeria (CYFN) has accused Mele Kyari, the Group Managing Director of Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPC Limited), of enriching himself and his associates at the expense of the suffering of Nigerians.
The forum also urged Bola Tinubu to remove Kyari, accusing him of lacking empathy, compassion, and a genuine commitment to resolving the nation’s issues.
In a statement released by its National President, Rev. Phrank Ochiga, the group alleged that Kyari’s tenure has been marred by numerous controversies, including subsidy scams, the importation of substandard petroleum products, and the mismanagement of the Port Harcourt Refinery.
The forum expressed deep concern over the current situation, which has caused severe hardship for Nigerians, who are now paying over N1000 per liter for fuel, calling it “economic terrorism” orchestrated by Kyari.
The Christian Youth Forum warned that Nigeria could face widespread protests if Kyari is not removed from his position, either by resignation or dismissal by the authorities.
The group called on Bola Tinubu to act swiftly by removing Kyari to restore the petroleum sector and urged all Nigerians to unite in demanding Kyari’s resignation or dismissal.
The statement reads in part; “The current situation has led to untold hardship on Nigerians, who are forced to buy fuel for over 1,000 Naira per liter.
“This is nothing short of economic terrorism, and Kyari is the mastermind behind this evil plot. He has shown no empathy, no compassion, and no willingness to solve the problem.
“Instead, he has continued to enrich himself and his cronies at the expense of the suffering masses.”
The forum vowed to hold Kyari accountable for his failures and ensure that he does not escape the consequences of his actions.
“Kyari’s continued stay in office is a slap in the face of Nigerians, and we will not stand for it. He has failed, and he must go,” Ochiga added.
“We demand that President Bola Ahmed Tinubu sacks Kyari with immediate effect to restore the petroleum sector. Anything less is unacceptable.
“We call on all Nigerians to join us in demanding Kyari’s resignation or sacking. Enough is enough! We will no longer tolerate incompetence, corruption, and mismanagement,” Ochiga said.
