The Ijaw Youth Council, IYC, Worldwide, has expressed worry over what it described as “negative impressions” created by oil thieves to discredit the operations of Tantita Security Service.
This is just as the group commended the federal government for renewing the pipeline surveillance security contract, noting that considering the excellent job done by the firm in safeguarding oil facilities in the Niger Delta region is yielding positive results in the war against oil theft.
Spokesman of the IYC Worldwide, Binebai Princewill, said: “President Bola Tinubu, the national security adviser, and other critical stakeholders in the polity must know that those attacking Tantita and Tompolo are oil thieves; they are merely fighting back because it is no longer business as usual for them.
“It is no longer news that Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited, in collaboration with the Nigerian Navy and other security agencies, is winning the war against oil theft that was rampant in our region.
“With the coming on board of Tantita, the story has changed for good. Today, Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited has increased oil production astronomically to over two million barrels per day.

“This is truly a significant milestone for the country’s economic fortune, as Tantita and our gallant security agencies deserve to be commended in the fight against oil theft in the Niger Delta.”
Princewill said the Ijaw people appreciate the Tinubu administration for renewing the pipeline surveillance security contract.
“Tompolo and the management of Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited are one of the greatest assets to the Tinubu administration.
“The company has invested so much in human capital development, engaging stakeholders for sustainable peace in the region, and our hitherto degraded environment due to oil spills is now clean, as aquatic lives have been restored.
“Let it be known that Tantita is not the only private security firm handling pipeline surveillance security contracts in the region.
“However, the name-calling of Tantita and Tompolo is becoming too much. The IYC will not allow and entertain any further attacks against Tompolo and Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited from youths of other ethnic groups,” he stated.
