Presidential spokesperson, Garba Shehu has said that yhe federal government will soon reveal the identities of high-profile individuals behind crude oil theft in the country.
Shehu said this in on Friday while speaking on ‘daily politics’, a Trust TV programme.
He said as part of efforts to rid the country’s economy of sabotage, security operatives had raided locations where illegal oil bunkering thrive.
Shehu further hinted that there might be cases of some law enforcement agents engaging in the illegal act, adding that new measures were being taken to put a stop to it.
Shehu said , ” Oil theft is being tackled. The big problem we have in this country is that we ought to see more commitment from communities in assisting law enforcement agents.
“In some cases where some actors in the law enforcement are complicit, it becomes bad.”
