The Nigerian Army has reacted to allegations by ex-Niger
Delta militant leader, Asari Dokubo, that some cabals in the military are
involved in oil theft in the region.
Dokubo made the claims when he visited President Bola Tinubu
in Abuja on Friday.
The Director, Army Public Relations, Brig.-Gen. Onyema
Nwachukwu said the Nigerian army had been vigorously engaged in the fight
against illegal oil bunkering, oil theft,
illegal oil refining and other sundry crimes in the region with positive
results.
Nwachukwu who spoke to the News Agency of Nigeria on Friday in Abuja, said the intervention had produced positive results.
This, he said, was evident in the increase in daily oil
production from an abysmally dwindling output in the past.
Nwachukwu said the Nigerian army had zero tolerance for any
compromise on the part of its troops and would not condone any act of economic
sabotage.
He promised that the army authority would not spare any
black sheep in its fold if identified.
“The Nigerian Army has been vigorously engaged in the fight
against illegal oil bunkering, oil theft,
illegal oil refining and other sundry crimes in the Niger Delta.
“And this has yielded positive results as evident in the
increase in daily oil production per barrel from an abysmally dwindling output
in the past.
“The Nigerian Army has zero tolerance for any compromise on
the part of our troops and will not condone such acts of economic sabotage.
“No black sheep will be spared if identified,” he said.

Asari Dokubo, your religion has made you stupid & idiotic. I don't want to believe that u advised Buhari not to release Nnamdi Kanu. If indeed u did so, u have demonstrated how less serious people should have taken you when you were agitating.The struggle for freedom is a continuum. Nothing last forever. Nnamdi Kanu will be free one day if not by Tinubu , then certainly by another Tinubu.
