PENGASSAN President, Festus Osifo, made the call in Abuja at a news conference heralding its new Advocacy Programme with the theme Chasing Oil Thieves and Vandals out if Business.
The PENGASSAN’s Awareness Campaign Programme which aims at highlighting evils of oil theft and pipeline vandalism will hold Thursday, September 8, in various zonal locations of the association nationwide.
Osifo, who urged the government to take immediate action on the criminality, threatened that after the association’s advocacy if no traceable progress was seen, it would be forced to withdraw its workforce.
He expressed worry that Nigeria had been struggling to meet over 1.8 million barrels per day production quota of the Organisation of Petroleum Exporting Countries OPEC due to challenges occasioned by oil thefts and pipelines vandalism.
