The National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas Workers and the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission have collaborated to fight the scourge of oil theft.
According to a statement made available to The PUNCH on Thursday, NUPENG called for collaboration when the President of the union, William Akporeha and members of his executive visited the corporate headquarters of the EFCC in Abuja on Wednesday.
William, while commending the Chairman of the EFCC, Ola Olukoyede, for his efforts to reposition the anti-graft agency, sought the collaboration of the commission in sanitising the oil and gas industry.
“I am not here to patronise you, but your administration has changed the way things were. Before now, when you heard of EFCC, what would probably come to your mind was the killing of businesses and organisations. But there is a new approach to issues where people now have courage and feel that this is an institution that follows due process.
