A'IBOM GOVT WARNS FACELESS GROUP AGAINST THE OBSTRUCTION OF SUPPLY OF PETROLEUM PRODUCTS

A'IBOM GOVT WARNS FACELESS GROUP AGAINST THE OBSTRUCTION OF SUPPLY OF PETROLEUM PRODUCTS

An anonymous gang posing as members of the National Union of Petroleum and Natural Gas has been forewarned by Akwa Ibom State Governor Pastor Umo Eno not to impede the state's supply of petroleum products.

At the All Nations Christian Ministry International's special service and fund-raising event for church building projects at Onna Mission Field, Ikot Udo Junction, Onna Local Government Area, Governor Eno read the Riot Act.

In order to stop the dishonest people from executing their nefarious plans, he gave the Commissioner of Internal Security instructions to coordinate with the Coordinator of Ibom Community Watch and other security organisations. 

"There is a false news in circulation from an unknown group. They say they want to withdraw their service of fuel delivery in Akwa Ibom. We have contacted the original and authentic group who have since countered that announcement.

"I have directed the Honourable Commissioner for Internal Security to work with the Coordinator of Ibom Community Watch to ensure that no one whatsoever blocks the road, or stops trailers from bringing petroleum products into Akwa Ibom. No one whatsoever would be allowed to do so especially a faceless group. We are ready to meet them with our overwhelming force.

"The Internal Security Ministry would mobilize the Police, the Army, Air Force, the Navy to ensure that there is a free flow of petroleum products all over the State. We are not in a lawless society. We will not allow a faceless group to intimidate us"

Governor Eno emphasised that his government will confront them head-on in order to uphold its responsibility to guarantee the wellbeing of the populace. He acknowledged that Nigerians have been badly impoverished by the current economic reality and cautioned individuals or groups not to exacerbate the issue.

"In the wake of the prevailing hardship in the country, if any group believes it can constitute themselves into a nuisance and create additional hardship for the people of the country, and people of Akwa Ibom, we will confront that group. I don't care where they belong to, I don't care who is sponsoring them. I can guarantee them as a Governor of this State that they will be brought to book and made to face the full weight of the law".
