Your Days Are Numbered, CDS Warns Oil Thieves

In a stern message to criminals involved in crude oil theft and infrastructure destruction, the Chief of Defence Staff (CDS), General Christopher Musa has declared that their “days are numbered.”

The warning came after a high-level security meeting with President Bola Tinubu at the Presidential Villa in Abuja.

General Musa emphasised the military’s commitment to restoring full oil production in Nigeria, targeting an ambitious 2.1 million barrels per day.

He acknowledged the challenges faced by communities, and assured that the President will address these issues to ensure uninterrupted oil production.

General Musa stated that the President is aware of the concerns of communities affected by oil production and has vowed to address their grievances.

“Very well, as usual, you know Nigeria relies a lot on what we produce and his mandate, like we mentioned days back, is for us to restore full production. We are targeting 2.1 million barrels per day, which is achievable. So we’re taking steps to ensure that all that is required to be done is done.

“The President is fully aware of the cries and hues of the communities and he’s not going to let them down. The communities should rest assured that steps are going to be taken to address their grievances so that productions will continue.

“For the criminals, those ones that are hell-bent on destroying our infrastructure, stealing our crude for whatever reason, the days are numbered. They should be rest assured that we’re coming after them.

“I want to assure Nigerians that we all need to put hands together to achieve this success. Nobody can do it alone. No single service, no single individual can do this, we all need to work together, including the states.

“We understand that communities are going through so much and the President is going to address those issues to ensure that we have full production”, Musa said.
