Pipeline Surveillance: INYA Alleges Plots To Hijack Contract In Isoko Nation

ISOKO National Youth Assembly, INYA, has raised the alarm over alleged moves by some non Isoko indigenes to hijack the execution of the pipeline surveillance contract in Isoko nation for their political benefits.

INYA, in a statement by its President, Amos Etaluku, congratulated  Government Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo on “the well deserved award of the pipeline surveillance contract by the NNPC Limited.”

“We have intelligence that some elements from other tribes are trying to hijack the execution of the contract in Isoko nation for their political benefits. We reiterate that there should not be a non-Isoko person in the chain of execution in the Isoko part of this contract even if the non-Isoko person appoints his stooge to front for him.”

“We have more than competent persons in the entire value chain to handle the execution of the contract in Isoko Nation in the spirit of local content, equity and fairness.

“We are by this release asking the GMD of NNPC, stakeholders and the general public to please take note. A stitch in time, they say, saves nine.”
