Marketers hail inclusion of PEF in document, CISLAC urges presidential assent
The Niger Delta Congress (NDC) has picked holes in the newly passed Petroleum Industry Bill (PIB), saying it came as “one legislation too many, aimed at purloining the resources of Niger Delta.”
In a statement yesterday by its acting spokesman, Ovunda C. Eni, the group said the “disappointing news” did not come to it as a surprise.
The NDC regretted the “laissez faire attitude of some Niger Delta leaders”, claiming that a bulk of them exhibited “treachery and criminal passivity to the contents of the bill.” x
The body observed: “Notwithstanding the absence of surprise, we find it contemptible and an act of aggression. We also take note of the treacherous active and passive roles played by the political leadership of the Niger Delta in the facilitation of this disrespect to our people. This, we find embarrassing and sad.
