Niger Delta Congress Demands Forensic Audit of Tantita Pipeline Deal, Threatens Legal Action

The Niger Delta Congress has called for an independent forensic audit of the pipeline surveillance contract awarded to Tantita Security Services. They say the ₦4 billion–a-month deal has failed to curb oil theft or boost crude output. The group warns that Tantita cannot patrol remote swamp areas. Illegal bunkering and makeshift refineries are found weekly along neglected creek networks. Production remains below OPEC and budget targets despite high spending. The Congress also accuses activist Deji Adeyanju of bias and questions his ties to the contractor. They demand he withdraw from Niger Delta affairs and face a probe into his funding. If the audit confirms poor performance, the group vows to seek contract termination in court and to push for a transparent, decentralized security model involving local operators and national forces.
