The director of Information Naval Headquarters Commodore Adedotun Ayo-Vaughan said 22 wooden boats were also recovered between June 13 and June 19, 2022.

In a statement he issued yesterday, Ayo-Vaughan said, “The various NN platforms deployed for ‘Operation Dakatar Da Barawo, Calm Waters 11’ and Tripartite Joint Border Patrol have continued to sustain aggressive patrols to curb the menace of crude oil theft and illegal oil bunkering. Accordingly, several illegal refining sites (IRS), metal storage tanks, wooden boats, dugout pits and ovens were destroyed between 13th and 19 June, 2022.
