I am also glad about this collaboration,\u2019\u2019 he said and stressed the pertinence of a review of surveillance contracts of the oil facilities to ensure community involvement.<\/p>\n<p>The governor pointed out that it was often difficult to secure the facilities, especially when the persons given the contracts did not have adequate information on the environment or not have the buy-in of host communities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe know that the impact of the nefarious activities on the health of the people cannot be immediately ascertained, and this collaboration is, therefore, very imperative.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAny measure that will deliberately reduce the level of oil thefts is definitely worth supporting, and as a state government, we pledge our continued support.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy investment of the communities is needed is because there are some parts of the creeks that cannot be accessed by the surveillance contractor. Therefore, surveillance contracts should not be such that communities are not involved.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe surveillance contracts should be tied to performance such that when there are oil thefts you terminate the contract and it is always good that communities are involved because they know the environment better,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n<p>Okowa flayed the oil companies for not keeping faith with their Memorandum of Understanding (MOUs), thereby making the stakeholders to lose confidence in the system.<\/p>\n<p>He explained that when oil companies failed to sign or implement MOUs, \u201cit becomes very difficult for the state government to mediate when there are issues.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe security agencies must heighten their operations and they need to be resourced to enable them to also increase their level of surveillance and for this to succeed, there must be sincerity on the part of all stakeholders.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Earlier, Sylva had told the governor that the team was in Asaba to seek the support and buy-in of the state government on measures to be adopted to check oil-theft, saying \u201cas a country we cannot sustain this kind of theft perpetually\u2019\u2019.<\/p>\n<p>He said that oil theft had become a national emergency, especially as the nation had not been able to meet its OPEC production quota.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOur production has dropped drastically to very unsustainable levels; so, we have decided to take the bull by the horn by putting some structures in place and those structures cannot function effectively without the collaboration of the state government,\u201d the minister said.<\/p>\n<p>Chief of Defence Staff, General Lucky Irabor, who is coordinating the security intervention against oil theft, disclosed that in the last five months security agencies had been dealing with issues of illegal refineries and oil bunkering across the Niger Delta.<\/p>\n<p>The CDS also advocated for the engagement of indigenes and host communities in the fight against the criminal activity.<\/p>\n<p>On his part, Group Chief Executive Officer of NNPC Limited, Mallam Mele Kyari, said that Nigeria was currently losing about two billion dollars monthly to the activities of oil vandals, with its attendant effect on environmental degradation.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs a country, we hardly meet our OPEC production quantum of 1.99 million barrels per day with our current production level of 1.4 million barrels per day which is currently being threatened by the activities of these economic saboteurs.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis has done extensive damage to the environment and losing 1.9 billion dollars every month is colossal, considering the nature of the global economy at the moment,\u2019\u2019 he disclosed.<\/p>\n<p>Kyari reinstated that the team needed the support and buy-in of Delta Government \u201cbecause stopping this oil theft requires the concerted efforts of the Federal, State Governments, oil companies and security agencies\u201d.<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"jb_0 X_6MGW N_6Fd5\" style=\"text-align: justify;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"H_7jIs D_F ab_C Q_69H5 E_36RhU\" data-test-id=\"toolbar-hover-area\">\n<div class=\"D_F W_6D6F r_BN gl_C\" data-test-id=\"card-toolbar\">\n<div class=\"D_F ab_C en_0 b_Z14vXdP e_3mS2U I_ZkbNhI P_Z1otBpf\">\n<ul class=\"hd_n P_0 H_6D6F M_0 ir3_0 iy_h D_F ab_C\" tabindex=\"0\" role=\"menubar\" data-test-id=\"navigable-list\">\n<li class=\"G_e p_R\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" role=\"menuitem\"><\/li>\n<li class=\"G_e p_R\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" role=\"menuitem\"><\/li>\n<li class=\"G_e p_R\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" role=\"menuitem\"><\/li>\n<li class=\"G_e p_R\" style=\"text-align: justify;\" role=\"menuitem\"><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Governor Ifeanyi Okowa of Delta has advocated a review of surveillance contracts on oil facilities to involve host communities in order to check the high rate of oil theft in&hellip;<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><!-- AddThis Related Posts generic via filter on wp_trim_excerpt --><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":96716,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-97848","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-news"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.8 -
