Name terrorism sponsors, oil thieves, Peter Obi tells FG

The 2023 presidential flagbearer of the Labour Party, Mr Peter Obi, has asked the Federal Government to name sponsors of terrorism and oil thieves in the country.

Indeed, the Chief Executive Officer of the Nigerian National Petroleum Company Limited, NNPC, Mele Kyari, had on Tuesday alleged that high placed Nigerians, including religious, community leaders and government officials, were fully involved in oil theft in the country.

The former Anambra State governor, in a tweet on his Twitter handle, wondered why the FG is unable to summon the political will to name the criminal elements.

Peter Obi 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?”
