The Labour Party’s Presidential Candidate, Peter Obi has said that he is struck and intrigued by the news report liking renowned Nigerians to oil theft.
He stated this on his verified Twitter handle on Wednesday.
Peter Obi said that same occurences has been the case with financing insurgency and Boko Haram.
He then asked when will FGN summon political will to publicly name such persons, insisting that there should be no scare crows in the National interest.
” I am struck and intrigued by the news report linking “highly placed” Nigerians to oil theft. Same has been the case with financing insurgency and Boko Haram. When will FGN summon the political will to publicly name such persons?”, he wrote.
The issue of oil theft in Nigeria has become a matter of great concern. It is quite unfair for the government to blame highly placed Nigerians for this act.
