The Minister of Petroleum Resources, Ibe Kachikwu, yesterday said President Muhammadu Buhari has not allocated a single oil block since he came into office.
At a town hall meeting in Uyo, the Akwa-Ibom State capital, organised by the Federal Ministry of Information and Culture, a Nigerian asked the minister why oil block allocations favoured the North rather than the South-south, where most oil blocks are located.
Answering, Kachikwu, said this was not the doing of President Buhari, emphasising that the president would follow due process in allocation of oil blocks when the time comes.
Kachikwu further said when the president eventually starts, South-south indigenes would have their share.
