“This outgoing year has been a challenging one for Nigerians as we are faced with several challenges, particularly regarding the economy and security. However, we appreciate all the efforts and commitments your administration has demonstrated in handling these challenges”, they noted.
According to the group, Nigeria’s daily oil production had improved significantly over the last decade (as reported by OPEC) following the award of the pipeline contract to Tantita Security Nigeria Ltd, adding that the security and stability of the Niger Delta area had also improved tremendously, while environmental pollution caused by oil companies had reduced drastically.
The group reiterated that several communities in the Niger Delta and thousands of youths had been engaged and empowered either through direct employment or award of subcontracts by Tantita Security Nigeria Ltd, stating that the pipeline contract had drastically reduced unemployment, criminality and contributed immensely to the peace in the region.
“It is in the light of the above that we express our gratitude to you, and all those partnering with Tantita Security Nigeria Ltd especially the leadership of the NNPCL and the Nigerian Armed Forces, for the successes recorded against oil theft. Their tireless efforts, innovative approaches and unwavering dedication have yielded remarkable results, and we are happy to acknowledge their achievements, which have left an indelible mark on Nigeria’s economic landscape and peace.
“We pray for God’s divine direction, protection and blessings upon our Nation and its people. May the spirit of love, peace, and unity that defines this special season continue to guide us to a brighter future”, the group added.
