Governor Nyesom Wike of Rivers State has accused the General Officer Commanding (GOC), 6th Amphibious Division of Nigeria Army, in Port Harcourt, of engaging in illegal oil bunkering.
The Rivers State governor tweeted this, on Wednesday, on his tweeter handle, @GovWike, while playing host to some top Nigerian Navy officers in his office in Port Harcourt.

He has his own team that is making money for him through oil bunkering”.
“I wonder what the Joint Task Force Operation Delta Safe would do when they encounter the illegal oil bunkering team of the GOC,” the tweets read.
