Outgoing minister of Petroleum Resources, Deziani Alison-Madueke, has said that said those angling for her exclusion in the next cabinet are doing so because she has created a transparent process and level playing field that has denied them the opportunity to continue ‘business as usual’ in the oil and gas sector of the economy.
She dismissed them as those simply afraid of President Goodluck Jonathan’s reform agenda in the oil and gas sector of the economy.
Fielding questions from our correspondent, against the backdrop of criticism mounting against her nomination as a minister in the next dispensation, Alison-Madueke insisted that there is no going back on ongoing reforms of the sector by Mr. President.
“They are fighting President Jonathan because since assuming duties as president of this country he has taken the uncharacteristic step to break the cartel in the petroleum sector that had almost strangulated the economy for over a decade. That is why the frenzied and sudden campaign of calumny by the cartel, all in a bid to deter me from carrying out Mr. President’s reform agenda,” Alison-Madueke stated.
