Commander of Nigerian Navy Ship (NNS) Pathfinder, Commodore Suleiman Ibrahim, made the call while speaking during a a strategic meeting between the Navy and the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in Port Harcourt.

Ibrahim regretted that illegal bunkering and artisanal refining of crude oil had overtime erupted into environmental degradation, health hazards and pollution of marine life.

He maintained that the war against vandals would not be limited to arrests of suspects on the waterways alone but also extended to their sponsors and would-be buyers of such illegally obtained products.

The commander noted that with thorough investigation, the prosecuting agencies must dig deep into such cases to unravel the numerous actors behind the crime.
