In a significant development for Nigeria’s ongoing battle against crude oil theft, a civil society group, Organisations for Human and Peoples Rights Protection (OHPRPH), has expressed strong support for the recent appointment of Senator Ned Nwoko as Chairman of the Senate Ad-Hoc Committee on Crude Oil Theft.

In a statement signed by its National President, Comrade Ezekiel Kagbala, and the organization’s Publicity Secretary, Chief Rosemary Ishioma Oshilim, the group underscored the urgency of addressing crude oil theft, which has severely impacted Nigeria’s economy and caused extensive environmental damage.
