Mention Military Officers Involved In Oil Theft – Nigerian Navy Dares Militants Leader, Dokubo
The Nigerian Navy has challenged a Niger Delta militants’ leader and former agitator, Asari Dokubo, to produce the names of officers involved in crude oil theft.
Dokubo, had on Friday, alleged that the bulk cases of oil theft recorded in the oil-rich region were traceable to the Nigerian Army and Navy.
He said this while briefing State House reporters after meeting President Bola Tinubu behind closed-doors at the Aso Rock Villa.
“The military is at the centre of oil theft and we have to make this very clear to the Nigerian public that 99 per cent of oil theft can be traced to the Nigerian military, the Army and the Navy especially,” Dokubo had said.
But the spokesman of the Nigerian Navy, Commodore Adedotun Ayo-Vaughan, described the allegation as “spurious and unguarded”.
