This is the amount of barrels that’s being stolen daily… you can imagine the amount of oil that’s being sold in a day.. later on they will lie to us that Nigeria is broke they don’t have money to pay asuu and other budgets… we have been cheated a lot ☹️

Armed forces r stationed all over d Niger Delta so theft happening right under their nose. Not rocket science to conclude that collusion going on btw thieves & security forces daily at such scale on daily basis. Surely theft is not by Jerry cans but in tankers, barges & ships

And d government can't do anything about it for these are official thieves with offices in Abuja. Even their offices are closer to Aso rock villa! God help u sir has u try or not try to solve dis problem dat is beyond ur capacity. Come why tell us. Are we d commander in chief?

Whose fault is this honourable minister?

Such as the minister himself
