Oil Theft: Tompolo’s Tantita Security Service Behind Increased Outputs Of Daily Crude Oil Productions – Group

…Calls for contract renewal

The group, Centre for Human Rights and Anti-Corruption Crusade (CHURAC), has attributed the increased outputs of the nation’s daily crude oil productions to efficient and proficient works of Tantita Security Services Limited, the private security company fighting crude oil theft in the Niger Delta region.

CHURAC, in a statement by its Chairman Board of Trustees, Cleric Ebikonbowei Alaowei, Esq, said that since the oil pipeline surveillance contract was awarded to the Company owned by High Chief Government Ekpemupolo aka Tompolo, illegal bunkering activities have becoming a thing of the past.

Alaowei maintained that Tantita Security Services Limited, therefore deserved all commendations for riding the region of oil theft.

In a statement on Wednesday, Alaowei, urged the management of Nigeria National Petroleum Company Limited (NNPCL) not to hesitate the process of renewing the pipeline surveillance contract awarded to Tantita Security Service Limited.

“Men and officers of the private security firm are daily combing the creeks and the deep tropical forests including the high sea in the region to detect illegal bunkering activities.

“The manifestation of the Company’s determined but suicidal efforts is the increased outputs of our daily crude oil productions.

The group said that only Tompolo can do the enormous sacrifice of pipeline surveillance for the country.

“While the oil companies and their regulatory agency, the NNPCL are celebrating this achievement, it’s imperative that the Federal Government renew the contract for the Company with an upward review of the contract sum.

CHURAC urged President Tinubu not to allow the situation to return to the worst case scenario before re-awarding the contract to Tompolo’s Tantita who are ready to take up the gauntlet to embark on the dangerous journey of securing the nation’s critical assets.

“We therefore lend our voices to well meaning Nigerians for the renewal of the pipeline surveillance contract for the Company. Only Tompolo can do this enormous sacrifice for the Country.

“We also appeal to security agencies protecting oil facilities to partner with the Company. In a situation where the Company work at cross purpose with some vested interest in the cartel is not good if the security agencies appeared to be taken side with the cartel.

“As much as we know, Tantita Security Services Limited is only discharging its responsibility to the nation. Therefore, security agencies in the oil sector should at all times work with the Company.

“Nigerians and indeed the international community are happy that the Company is fighting the menace not minding whose ox is gored. That’s the only way crude oil theft can be nipped in the bud”, the statement added.
