Chairman of the Bayelsa Traditional Rulers’ Council, Bubaraye Dakolo, has claimed that Nigerian authorities burnt an intercepted vessel carrying barrels of stolen crude oil in Bayelsa to avoid investigating those involved in oil theft in the country. Dakolo made this known in an exclusive interview with Arise News on Wednesday, where he claimed that the people the Nigerian government had been parading as suspects of oil thefts were actually victims of circumstances surrounding oil theft in the country.
