iii. Setting up Special Courts to try offenders, set-up of Legal Task Force to coordinate the prosecution of arrested offenders as well as train special judges to handle cases of oil theft.
iv. NNPC to engage the National Intelligence Agency (NIA) to identify markets for the stolen products.
v. Governors of the oil producing states to step up actions to develop their communities with their 13% derivation allocation as well as implement programmes that will be impactful to make life easy for the people. They should also create employment opportunities for the youths in these regions.
vi. Propose a funding arrangement to be jointly funded by the Federal, State Governments and oil companies.

Osinbajo dont reply children of hate anymore

As much as they hated and vowed to evict Awolowo's grand child Dr Seyi on a mere Reality Show Bigbrother naija because of their envy for yoruba's , they failed woefully...

Is it now a Vice President, A Senior Advocate of Nigeria, Pastor of God and a Professor Of Law they, a man God saved twice from and helicopter crash, they would use fake news to impeach

The Harder they hate us, the more God blesses us and relegates them from national political relevance

Why always cow?

The attention on cow and cow herders is just too much, if half of it is given to power and economy I'm sure things would have been better.

If the whole of the best, most fortunate, and celebrated of your ancestry are combined, and they can never amount to 20% of osinbajo in life.

If you dare challenge this, you just tell us one of them!
