“In Nigeria, though crude oil has contributed largely to the economy, the revenue has not been used and accounted for,” Tambuwal declared in his opening remarks.

Tambuwal said that continued diversion of crude oil, bunkering and vandalism of oil pipelines constituted major sabotage to the nation’s economy.
