Bunmi AdulojuEdwin Clark, an Ijaw national leader, says the lingering oil theft in the Niger Delta has been occurring for about 50 years.Last week, the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited had said oil theft in the country started over 20 years ago.
“According to reports, high powered technological engineering expertise is applied to steal crude oil from the Forcados line. “According to NNPC, this is part of the 470 thousand barrels of crude oil that is being lost every month, amounting to $700 million.Clark added that the discovery of the illegal four kilometers pipeline — through which crude oil was being siphoned — showed that oil theft was being perpetuated by criminal mafias, with the connivance of some officials in the oil industry.
The surprising thing is not that oil is being stolen but that Nigerians are surprise by the theft. Nigeria is full of wealthy people whose source of wealth cannot be determined. They live amongst us, we know them. Public servants own properties beyond their salaries.
