Name ‘Highly Placed’ Oil Thieves, Boko Haram Sponsors – Peter Obi Challenges FG

Peter Obi, the Labour Party, LP, presidential candidate, has challenged the president Muhammadu Buhari-led government to publicly name sponsors of terrorism and those stealing oil in the Niger-Delta.

Obi expressed sadness over the inability of the Federal Government to publicly name the evil perpetrators.

Recall that Mele Kyari, the Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPC, on Tuesday alleged that high placed Nigerians, including religious, community leaders and government officials, were fully involved in crude oil theft in Nigeria.

Reacting to the report, the former Anambra State governor, in a tweet on his Twitter handle, wrote, “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?”
