And Civil defence won't be able to do half of what Tantita is doing to secure the pipelines. They should just leave it as it where.
RaptorX:
Hand it over to the Civil Defense and watch their ogas at the top become billionaires and their foot soldiers millionaires, so nothing have changed just more people eating from the pot.

Who are the faceless petitioners ?
Why are they afraid to identify themselves ?

I bet you it's the obidients !
They're too fearful of those Niger Delta boys !
Na mostly Itsekiri people. The likes of Ayiri Dey vex. Normally the Olu of Warri sef get him own pipeline security company and he gets some payments too. When Ayiri get that contract nobody disturb am, until e reach Ijaw man turn.

And quit this thing of blaming obedients here. This one in-house power struggle.

This type of petition should first go to NDDC, the last time I checked, their welfare is predominantly sit in NDDC and not security of pipeline, if they are not damaging pipelines behind their homes and in their environment, there won't be reason to subcontract such enomous contract to private individuals.
I read the petition. They said it’s better the government allows each community protect the oil pipelines in her domain. Lol

Na the likes of Ayiri and Dokubo Dey sponsor this thing.

The country and its elites are so criminal-minded that uncriminal activities must hurt.

But Tantita is doing a good job na. As long as he is producing result, those complaining should find something else to do.

Very wrong number.
Many people still do not understand how this country works.
Tinubu will never terminate such a political contract when election is near.
Try next time.🤣

Was the Army able to handle it over the years. Why distort what is working.
National security should not be outsourced to private entities my friend. That's a big security risk. And my comment is about Nigeria, not APC or PDP or any party because if you know the history of the contract and what led us to the contract, all parties are to be blamed. I would have expected APC to stop it when they came to power.

If they are doing a good job in securing the pipelines which I believe they are doing, then allow them do their thing.
A country with mass unemployment, some certain individuals are earning 4b monthly because they decide to carry guns, and you’re asking us to let them do their work. Are you saying the average youths surviving we don’t ave the hands to carry guns too? What should our youth be aspiring for ? If criminals can be paid such amount monthly?

What is then the work of Civil Defence corps if pipeline protection are handled by private individual firms paid by government?
You guys are yet to even understand the idea behind awarding it to these people. It's to get them involved in the protection. For decades the only business that these people in the Riverine area know is bunkary and the strategy government has to use is to allow them protect the pipeline thereby providing jobs for them to discourage them for bunkary. So it's not about the surveillance of pipe but providing job opportunities for Niger Delta region youths.

Not that I am supporting the contract awarded to Tompolo, but are the government not criminals themselves?

YoungLionken:
Asari Dokubo at work..

But on a serious note, why would the major source of the country's income be guided by a private individual, a criminal for Christ's sake!?

This country is doomed already, believe the false hope, na you know...

Imagine what this country will look like thirty years from now - if we continue down this road we've been travelling on for the past six decades. undecided

The rot is terrible and things keep getting worse by the minute.


Nigeria has five surviving former presidents or heads of state - Gowon, Obasanjo, Babangida, Abdulsalam and Jonathan. All the others are gone - Zik, Murtala, Shagari, Buhari, Shonekan and Abacha. The majority of state governors from the First to the Third Republics are also gone. The question is: what kind of country have these men left behind?

There are a lot of videos of Singapore's Lee Kuan Yew suddenly appearing online. These videos show old and newer interviews and speeches and provide an insight into who the man was and what he stood for. This is a man who ruled Singapore with what his critics call an iron fist - but he certainly delivered the goods. The man delivered the goods - no excuses, nothing - he just delivered the goods! Of course he wasn't the only one working to move Singapore into the future - but the country took the path it did largely because of the vision of this man. And...Singapore stands tall today.

It took many, many years for Singapore to get to where she is today...just like it took Nigeria many, many years to regress to the hellscape where she is today. Sadly, the future looks very bleak for Nigeria because she isn't even trying to change. Nigeria is doing the same old things and expecting different results.

Its going to get worse.

Stopping Tantita won't restore your destiny either. If those complaining were doing a better job, the contract would not have been given to Tantita in the first place.

When numbers of barrels reduced to 900,000 per day from over 1.8million, was your destiny intact at the time?

Tantita came in, the numbers increased to 1.5, 1.6million. There must be something he is doing right.

All those people you mentioned will hardly die a natural death. I’m not wishing them death or something bad but the nature of profession will always catch up with them.. it’s not Karma it’s just the way things works.

Don’t mind the thieves, Tantita must be doing a good job for them to ganging up against the company. As long as federal government is getting results.. they can keep shouting and screaming.
