How did an illegal diesel depot in private residence manage to evade detection for such a long time?

I swear. For up to 5 yrs fa

Elegushi beach area. It is great o. This bunker must belong to people highly placed, based on location.

They are taking their share of the country

Cassandraloius:
Hmmmm.... One politician is at work. Good a thing they discovered them.

believe them at your parole.
This man has been doing his business openly for years. But it's now they caught him.

Its obvious the navy increased his bribe settlement, in which he couldn't pay.

In fact while I was working at lekki as a facility manager. I'm one of those that have patronised him. His business was an OPEN business.

yemmywesey:
But trading AGO is not illegal nah, no evidence of stolen , siphoned, hijacked or illegal refinery AGO. So why was he arrested.
We have gas plants and farms around our neighborhood too, we have DPK or kerosene tanks around my neighborhood too.
What offence is the navy charging him for exactly.

Till there is an explosion and your house gets affected. Remember the blast at Ibadan? Is it proper to convert what is supposed to be a residential area into a depot for flammable products? Why do you think there are planning rules and regulations? Because others do it, doesn't make it right.

GloriousGbola:


You are the sort of uneducated illiterate the navy is targeting. Because you have no idea how the law is supposed to work

Foolish dunce

The navy may as well arrest you for driving one way, since you have given them authority to do so.

There are multiple federal and state government agencies that actually investigate and confirm what laws have been broken

What the man has is a crude and poorly done fuel dump.

The correct questions are does he have a storage licence

How is he preventing environmental pollution?

It is ironic that the navy whose own fuel dumps do not have dpr licenses are even injecting themselves in this matter.

stop changing the narrative dunce... Let's discuss the movie script u typed in the previous page..were u there wen den dey sell diesel to one another ,or the business owner narrated the bullshit u cooked up to u?

Holluwhakemmy:
Fuel station inside private residence hmmmn Nigeria my country

It was extremely stupid to keep all these tanks in the open. You put them under ground, and just a few valves and hoses above the ground which should not raise any suspicion. You then open some sort of mechanic shop where vehicles have a legitimate reason to enter (and refuel).

The only crime here is not registering the business, operating in a residential neighborhood isn’t a case afterall majority of filling stations across the country operate around residential areas

it is not a matter for the navy

it is a matter for DPR, LASPPA, LASEPA

those are the agencies that can decide what laws and regulations have been contravened

the Navy has no business whatsoever in this matter

the real risk here is environmental pollution as they are definitely spilling diesel on the ground from where it will get into the ground water . they are getting away with this because the ground water is already salty so no one in the area has boreholes

as to fire - i would be more worried if it was petrol. diesel has a much higher flash point than petrol so it will take alot more carelessness for you to get a fire

better stick to no worries pumba - this is above the capacity of the golf ball in your skull.

leave this talk to actual professionals. you are better suited making empty tribalist rants

Nigerian Navy
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

Since the time that they accused the CNS and hin causus and they debunked

News been flying here and there

🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣

The only thing wrong was going about the business illegally. Them no thief abeg.

Blazetrailer:
Aside from the company not being registered ( which is still contentious), tell me how this is an illegal business??

The real thieves are in the creeks, probably protected by the same security ops.... they just want to make some noise and camouflage with this dude. he is not an oil thief.

Exactly

It will be traceable to one big shot politician

Exceed15:

Oga, no bigshot politicians dey run this kind of business worth of #500m. It's a chicken feed to them. Small money dey used in exporting olosho from dubai.
This business seems legit but wrong situated sites and allegedly not registered with no safety measures. You smart pass this people na, no let them run you propaganda na

Pls for all those making all sort of noise about this, did you hear the products was gotten illegally, is there a pipeline within that property, was any analysis of the product that shows it's an adultrated diesel?
The point here is the unauthorized storage facility in a residential area, aside from that, the product was bought legitimately with their hard earn money..

Blaze14k:
Igbos are the problem of nigeria crew gada here😂😂😂

On the contrary YOU and YOUR likes are the problem of Nigeria. Tribalistic bigot that's who you are. You better change your mind set. I'm sure you are one of those who complained about the outfit of air peace crew. God help you.

E be like plenty things are happening in lekki private residences.

Lexusgs430:
This are the people stealing from Nigeria...... Federal government MUST seize that house.....

Who knows maybe is baba that owns the place sef

His only offence, a stupid one at that, is that he is selling it from his backyard. He is a very stingy and greedy businessman.

With products worth over N89million, he could have purchased 2 plots of land at Ibeju Lekki and use it for his business.

Just imagine the huge tanks he packed in his backyard.

Some people derive joy in wasting other people's life

ValarDoharis:
Nobody is interested in these stupid propaganda with no prosecution. This was exactly what happened at the beginning of Bubu's administration where monies were seen in houses, soakaway but no arrest and prosecution.

Tinubu is really Buhari Promax! Such monumental incompetence and abysmal performance!

tinubu is incompetent but you competent papa no gree contest for election Dey part of who carry us reach where we dey. If na your papa be president,Nigeria go don better pass china.

After uncovering what next?

"A gas tanker was seen loading at the Elegushi Beach." That's how it became the Navy's business. At the shores, the NSCDC and the navy work together to prevent oil-bunkering. You hardly see The Police at the creeks. They accosted the perpetrators based on the suspicion of oil-bunkering and theft.

"Handing over the suspects and recovered products to the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) at Silver Bird Road, Ilasun in Lekki." They have done their business and gone back to the water.

Former Gov Dickson said it,

That the oil bunkers in Nigeria live in Lagos and Abuja, not in the Niger delta.

its the job of NIWA

I can bet you this has nothing to do with smuggling, that's the Tank farm for a large property and facility management firm ..they usually buy deisel in large quantities for their many properties to protect the value of service charge
