The oil theft cartels have been utilizing certain anonymous characters to wage a fictitious fight with the police.
The menace of crude oil theft remains one of the most obvious examples of Nigerian economic sabotage in modern times. Since the efforts made by successive governments to bring the mysterious cartels responsible for the heinous economic crime to justice have been ineffective, this economic malignancy has been quietly devouring the nation’s fortunes for years.
During the briefing of the Senate Ad-hoc Committee to Investigate Oil Lifting, Theft and the Impact on Petroleum Production and Oil Revenues on Wednesday 21 September, 2022, a report of the activities of the Task Force was presented and the report shows a deliberately sustained fight with salient achievements.
Since the positive news of the success stories of the special unit of the Police Force crept into the public domain, children of mischief and hate-mongers have suddenly gone berserk, disseminating false information about the police force with the sole goal of misleading members of the public. Despite the blurring of the lines between truth and falsehoods due to the activities of fifth columnists, modern Nigerians are more informed and can tell the difference between the two.
