Obi noted many highly placed Nigerians have also been linked to financing insurgency and Boko Haram.

The presidential candidate of the Labour Party for the 2023 general elections, Peter Obi has challenged the Nigerian Government to publicly name highly placed leaders involved in crude oil theft in the country.

The former Anambra State Governor on Wednesday on his verified Twitter page said he was struck by the news report linking top Nigerians to oil theft.

Obi noted many highly placed Nigerians have also been linked to financing insurgency and Boko Haram, adding that he wonders when the government will summon the political will to publicly name such persons.

Obi, who said that in the national interest, there should be no sacred cow, wrote, "I am struck and intrigued by the news report linking ‘highly placed’ Nigerians to oil theft. Same has been the case with financing insurgency and Boko Haram. When will FGN summon the political will to publicly name such persons?

"In the National Interest, there should be no sacred cows."

This ppl ehn

One of the core sponsor of Bokoharam up north is what APC is parading as their vice president come 2023. But they're so delusional as such cannot happen. Foolish things.

I like that... Peter Obi is going to sink PDP by fire by thunder

Please let us know who has been recruiting people into NNPC since 1999 to 2015 without making any anoicement fixing PDP goons till they turned Directors



.

Jonathan was there, he couldnt.
I laugh when people think bandits and bokoharam is politics.
Yes any crises whether good or bad is always an avenue for politician to politicize. But I kid you not, bokoharam is on another level.
It has international bodies and internal compromise.
It's way too complicated to fully crack.
Not the president, nor the DSS fully understands its structure, one can only try and hope for luck.
It's an idea a bad one at that.

Obi showing d essence in his name Peter "Okwute" that he is fearless and his rescue mission a courageous one

you've been a member here since 2014. If you still think politics like those who just read operamini news then it's a shame.
If shettima was their sponsor, why couldn't Jonathan crack them down?
You ask yourself for what reason would shettima sponsor a group to kill its people?
For financial or political gain cos last time I checked its a liability on its part.

Even alqaeda and the taliban, has known structure, even THE US KKK structure is known..

Theres nothing about bokohqram, not even that lucrative to have so much international collaborations, bokohqram is mostly local

You want Western power that controls Nigerian crude oil to poison Buhari like Abacha, Abiola, and Yar'Adua?! Buhari already dodged the bullet with Queen Elizabeth, Arch Bishop of UK and David Cameron

Even Jonathan was chased out

They are members of the ruling class.

Black man blaming others, who are the fellow Nigerians these so called foreign people will use, name and shame them..

There's no excuse for allowing terrorism to continue especially when we can't afford it, the US pulled out because they can't afford to fighting terror anymore, no financial gain.

We are not here for blame game. You said you would fix the country, we gave you the chance so no excuses. Publicly name the criminals that steal our oil and sponsor insurgency and stop referring us to PDP that we sacked and hired you. Sorry my question is for real APC people, not zonebs that collect 30k stipend to defend them online so don't bother quoting me to explain.

All state Governors in Nigeria are part of all Council of State meetings in Nigeria and Obi was part of that for 8 years he should tell us what he said he knows

I said national security council, there's a difference, read it up.

even if you are right(which you are not) , we should also ask Tinubu, he took must have participated in those meetings during his time, maybe he knows those who funded bokohqram during those early years.
