National Association of Surface Tank Oil and Gas Retailers of Nigeria (NASTOGRN) in collaboration with Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) has commissioned NASTOGRN volunteers operations aimed at sensitising the youth against illegal refining, distribution and retailing of gas and petroleum products across Rivers State and other flashpoint States in Nigeria.
National President of NASTOGRN, King Onyeche Promise Obinna, performed the commissioning ceremony at the Community Secondary School, Ulakwo II, Etche Local Government Area of the State.
Speaking at the event, the NASTOGRN’s National President charged the youths to be focused and committed to the rules of engagement and avoid acts that are capable of tarnishing the image of NASTOGRN.
The King, a Professor of Engineering, however, commended the youths for thier resolve to rally round NASTOGRN in strengthening its collaboration with NSCDC and assured them of his undivided attention towards fulfilling their goals.
Obinna hinted that the exercise would be replicated across the 23 local government areas of the State and other oil producing communities in the nation with a view to reducing oil theft to its barest minimum.
In attendance were representatives of NSCDC, Rivers State Command, the Ahoada NSCDC Area Commandant and Etche Divisional Officer.
