His statement outline certain factors that make their involvement clear.
“While it’s becoming obvious that the oil theft in Nigeria is as old as our Independence;the reality that is now clear to all can be summarised as follows:
1. All the indigenous oil and gas producing players have been cutting corners and depriving the nation and their various host communities by exporting their crude without recourse to known procedure for accountability. Reason why some of them have multiple private jets they don’t need and retinue of security details to shield them from known & unknown enemies they have created.
