Activist Criticizes Pipeline Surveillance Contract Award in Niger Delta
A Nigerian Delta activist, Comrade Prey Tambou, has criticized the award of pipeline surveillance contracts to Tantita Security Services Nigeria Limited in the Niger Delta region. Tambou has raised concerns about ethnic favoritism in the contract award process, emphasizing the need for a transparent bidding framework and independent oversight.
He warns that the current trend of awarding security contracts based on ethnic grounds could lead to dangerous divisions among ethnic groups in Delta State. Tambou advocates for the cancellation of the contracts awarded to Tantita and calls for a fair and competitive process based on merit and competence.
He highlights the importance of ensuring the security of the nation's oil facilities and waterways through a system that prioritizes national security over ethnic considerations.
