Determined to encourage the tremendous improvement and gains from the pipeline surveillance contract awarded to Tantita Security Services Limited, (TSSL), President Bola Ahmed Tinubu have been advised to ignore distractions.
This may not be unconnected with the sponsored media attacks on the productive pipeline surveillance contract awarded to TSSL by the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, (NNPC).
The leadership of the Ijaw Youths Network, (IYN), while commending President Bola Ahmed Tinubu, said that the recent coordinated publications about the pipeline security contract shows in clear terms that the cabal of oil thieves, who are targeting the nation’s economy, are not relenting.
The IYN Coordinator, Frank Ebikabo and Federal Ebiaridor, Secretary, in a statement on Wednesday declared that those behind calumnious campaigns are not patriotic citizens who have the interest of the nation and its economy at heart, and should be ignored.
While stating that the sudden latter-day critics of the contract were all silent when the nation’s daily crude oil production dropped to an historical low of 900,000 barrels per day before Tantita’s engagement, they reminded that the nation’s oil production has witnessed commendable improvement to 1.64 million barrels per day.
“The number of rogue vessels arrested in connection with oil theft through the collaborative efforts of Tantita and the nation’s military are testament to the fact that President Tinubu has acted well in the nation’s interest.
According to the IYN, it is determined to encourage the tremendous improvement and gains made by the federal government from the contractual benefits of this well-thought out move against oil thieves.
The group said that while there is still room for improvement, lYN commended President Bola Ahmed Tinubu for his leadership qualities and genuine concern for the economy of the country.
“All Nigerians of good conscience are aware of, and applaud the fact that the gains of the contract are not in anyway comparable to the contract sum likewise the hypocrites calling for the cancellation of the contract.
“The President deserves commendation for the rare political will to confront the scourge of oil theft with the renewal of the Tantita Security Services Limited contract in spite of the massive resources deployed by oil thieves and others who lost out in the bidding process, against its renewal” the group noted.
