Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo reveal Buhari’s plans for Niger Delta

President Buhari and Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo
The Vice President explained that the federal government is engaging leaders and people of the Niger Delta regarding the spate of attacks on oil installations in the area, an act he stated amounts to economic sabotage. 

But besides reaching out to the people in the area, government is also beefing up security he assured.

According to him, the focus of the Buhari presidency "is to ensure that the man on the street in the Niger Delta receives the benefit from all that is available there," while calling on the leaders in the region to be accountable to the people.

Prof. Osinbajo added that government is working round the clock to minimize the losses arising from the attacks, adding that "we are talking, we are ensuring that we minimize losses and we are stepping up security. We are also engaging the international oil companies, IOCs, to see what options exists."
