REVOCATION OF OML 46 ATALA OIL: THE UNTOLD STORY OF TIMIPRE SYLVA’S CONSPIRACY HIS STATE

 


With the winding down of the administration of Muhammadu Buhari, Nigerians will not in a hurry forget the several pangs of pains which the appointees of Mr. President have inflicted on the lives of ordinary Nigerians.

For the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, this is not the best of time as a he contends with his conscience and hash verdict of history over several deliberate designs that have caused dark spots in the score sheet of the Buhari administration.
This is ranging from the provocative statements emanating from him in justifying the harrowing experience people go through over the increase in prices of petroleum products, the criminal importation of adulterated PMS under his direct supervision and the return of the dark days of long queues at filling stations, with the untold consequences of high cost of living and transportation beyond the reach of ordinary Nigerians.
In the area of oil theft, in spite of billions of naira sunk into providing private security for the upstream and downstream sectors of the oil industry in the name of surveillance service, the frightening and unbaiting  increase in statistics of oil theft under the watch of the defacto Minister of Petroleum Resources Chief Timipre Sylva is not only a worrisome legacy of President Muhammadu Buhari government but will remain a nightmare in the lives of Nigerians  .
In the political arena, the Bayelsa born politician, (Chief Timipre Sylva) is contending with political forces within and outside his party as he superintends over what has become the dubious revocation and re-allocation of the only prized asset of his own state to a company that was incorporated in 2019 with no technical and financial capabilities , despite having several others at his disposal. It is a common saying that, a property kept in the custody of a thief is safe as he will not do away with it but jealousy guard it. In this case the Bayelsa born politician spared all other oil blocs in the presidential order to reverse all planned revocation  of ten oil blocs , except the one he is supposed to guard jealously, which belongs to his state , the OML-46 also known as Atala Oil Field.
A source confided in this author and journalist that, “Timipre Sylva’s role was like that of the hand of Esau, the voice of Jacob”, who had a vested interest right from the stage of incorporation of HALKIN E & P in September 2019, by laying the foundation for Halkin to take over OML 46 to the revocation of the oil bloc.
To effect the revocation of OML 46, Timipre Sylva through his then Technical Assistant (Legal) at the defunct Directorate of Petroleum Resources (DPR), Dr Kelechi Ofoegbu , who was allegedly inspired  by his paymaster to author a letter to one Mr. Olaowei Indiamaowei who at no time was the Managing Director of Bayelsa Oil Company intimating him of the DPR intention to revoke OML 46 at a time the COVID-19 Pandemic was ravaging the entire globe with, deaths locked down economies and movements restrictions. The letter with reference MPR/TA/010/VOL1/010 dated 6th May 2020 and signed by one Engr. Auwalu Sarki, a Director/ CEO at the DPR on behalf of the Honourable Minister of State Petroleum Resources at the peak of the pandemic to an unknown identity was obviously part of the grand orchestration directly supervised by a man who ordinarily out of patriotism should protect an asset and patrimony of his home state. Curious persons who are within the Ministry of Petroleum resources  had cause to doubt Chief Timipre Sylva’s statehood. A man who can do such a thing to his home state can do anything for money they postulated.
Knowing fully well that Mr. Olaowei Ndiamaowei does not have the authority to respond to such a letter, the same syndicate authored another letter dated 28 February, 2021 to Chief Timipre Sylva recommending the re-award of OML 46 to Halkin E& P thus throwing due process into the air.
The said application with Ref No. DPR/1160/A/Vol.11/144 which was received on the 8th of March in the Office of the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources and Chief Timipre Sylva curiously approved paragraph 6 recommending HE&P Nigeria Limited expressly. The justification was that Halkin E & P with RC 1611389 and registered on the 5th of September, 2019 has invested the sum of Sixty Million Dollars $60,000,000.00 as well as satisfied all relevant condition precedent for re-allocation. 
Also, in that letter, both Chief Timipre Sylva and his Technical Assistant (Legal), Dr. OFOEGBU claimed to be acting on Presidential directive leading to the revocation of the Atala Marginal Field  was not only discovered to be false but a criminal claim from the pit of hell. As God would make it they could not even cover their criminal track.
When pressed by the Senate Committee on Ethics, Privileges and Public Petitions during their public hearing which was witnessed  by this author , a visibly troubled Dr Ofoegbu knowing the consequences of perjury as a lawyer became aggressive to the committee and promised to provide evidence to that effect. The question  begging for answer is, Where is the so called  evidence of Dr Kelechi Ofoegbu and Sylva ? According to impecable source close to the Ministry of PetroleumResources, it took Sylva less than an hour to sign the approval while the DPR envoy waited like the hangman in his office to receive it for immediate execution.
Discreet investigation also showed and let me restate for the purpose  of application that:-
the letter written and signed by Dr Kelechi Ofoegbu to Engr. Olaowei Indiamaowei was not only faulty but a deliberate ploy to achieve their sinister agenda, as Mr. Indiamaowei was never a Managing Director of Bayelsa Oil Company Limited. 
Interestingly, President Muhammadu Buhari had earlier issued a directive to reverse all actions leading to the revocation of the ten oil blocs. The Minister of State for Petroleum Resources and his men at the NUPRC (former DPR) complied with the presidential directive except that of the Atala Marginal Field owned by his state government.
 The Senate Committee on Public Petitions, Ethics and Privileges unequivocally asserted their recommendation as they presented their report in the red chambers over the revocation of OML 46 without due process and in breach of the presidential directive. 
During the public hearing, Dr Kelechi Ofoegbu who represented his boss, this time as an Executive Commissioner tried to no avail to defend the indefensible.
 When he was confronted by the Senate Committee to provide evidence of alleged directives by Mr. President who is the substantive Minister of Petroleum, Dr Ofoegbu rather took to his heels as the naked truth was dawn on them that they have no evidence to substantiate their hollow claims.
Dr. Ofoegbu and his team representing the Minister of State for Petroleum Resources was given ample opportunity running into weeks to show the Senate Committee the document where Mr President directed the re-allocation of Atala (OML 46) to Hakin E & P, which they are until now unable to provide. 
The senate in plenary, upon submission of report by the Senate Committee on Public Petitions, Ethics and Privileges totally condemned in unison, the criminal act of the NUPRC (DPR) and the Minister of state for Petroleum Resources, Chief Timipre Sylva and directed the compliance with the presidential directive to return Atala Oilfield to their original owners, which is the Bayelsa State government.
Our investigations further gathered that, a meeting of critical Ijaw men and women of concern was held on Tuesday 3rd January, 2023 Yenagoa,  the Bayelsa State capital,  in respect of the Atala Oil field.
An inside source disclosed in confidence that an action plan is being drawn by the host communities (Azagbene Federated Communities) and other critical stakeholders to deal with the revocation of Atala oil field ranging from mass protest to blocking the ever-busy East-West Road, to shutting down of oil installations as well as banning Chief Timipre Sylva from visiting his home state, Bayelsa . If no action is taken within the next few days to comply with the presidential directive. 

The stakeholders had vowed to tackle Sylva and any other persons involved in what they described as criminal conspiracy against a state that has been the epic centre of agitations against years of marginalisation of oil producing communities.  Therefore, this obvious act of broad day robbery of their property will not go unchallenged through every available means at their disposal. This is an avoidable danger signal particularly at this critical moment of the forthcoming general election which any public officer in his right senses should do everything possible to avert instead of compounding a nationwide security challenge. Any further delay in implementing the presidential directive will not only amount to official abuse of public trust but also uncharitable disservice to the country's quest for good governance and fair deal.
Atala will not go away until the right thing is done.

“Atiku’s Five Point Agenda Is The Only Pragmatic Development Plan We Have At The Moment” – Prof. Cyprian F. Edward-Ekpo

 

In a recent interview with Channels TV, Prof. Cyprian F. Edward-Ekpo, who is the
Director-General, Institute of Law Research & Development of United Nations (ILAWDUN), Washington DC, USA; Registrar, International Institute for Humanitarian & Environmental Law ( ISHERL): and Principal Executive Officer, Universal School of Eclectic Analysis, Research & Legal Studies ( UNISERL), London, United Kingdom – talked about some of the problems that bothers Nigeria’s democracy. He also disqualified Tinubu’s Manifesto while calling it plagiarism.

During the interview he higjlighted some daring points from his recently published book titled, “SIX DECADES A MISSING PRESIDENT: The Untold Story Why Nigeria Fails, and Atiku Abubakar’s Rethinking of Link Between Governance Agenda and Nigeria’s Renaissance”

The book, Six Decades Of A Missing President, offers readers a series of pedagogic narrative and insightful reflections on challenges and prospects, power and politics, and vistas of development, including how ideological politics and governance mission could illuminate the path of a nation and potentials of the citizens revealing deeper truths about why Nigeria fails and opening new vistas for development.

The book is divided into two complementary segments on the sociology of Nigeria’s leadership. The first part is an epistle on all the political leaderships of Nigeria from 1960 till date while in the second part, which is solution engrossed, Cyprian Edward- Ekpo’s emphasizes and analyzes in a more substantive methodology, a presidential workplan that he finds apropos to the current maladies bedeviling Nigeria – in terms of finding a sustainable solutions to them.

Edward-Ekpo examines the system of development-driven politics as against the current trajectory in Nigeria, which constitutes the baseline of the country’s failures and her impending collapsed state status While acknowledging the importance of general political assumptions, he demonstrates how they are grounded in intellectual poverty and trivialities instead of scientific and legal norms, pragmatism, and law. He dives deeply into the classical tradition and elements of socio-political renaissance towards development with various influential objectives of international law, and illustrates how the pragmatic governance workplan christened “Five-Point Agenda” by Atiku Abubakar – Former Vice President of Nigeria, could be deployed by the citizenry and political leaders to build a better Nigeria.

The book should not be referenced to personality; rather, it should be regarded as a masterpiece that relates to issues espoused in Atiku Abubakar’s Five-Point Agenda, which strikes the author as the most viable pragmatic workplan towards the Nigerian renaissance, and each of the Agenda topics are analyzed in the most pedagogic sense – with emphatic reference to the principles of sustainable development.

Dr. Ifeanyi Chukwuma Odii Has All It Takes To Rescue Ebonyi State" - Amb. Pascal Oluchukwu

 

In a recent interview with Spice Media correspondence Janet Maruiri in Nairobi, the Chairman of The Association of Ebonyi Indigenes Socio-Cultural In the Diaspora (AEISCID), Ambassador Pascal Oluchukwu spoke about some of the issues bothering governance across all political specs in Nigeria.

“My dear, the Nigerian situation is critical, and we can not continue to pet things as if they are part of the norms. The economy suffers every day. Insecurity is the order of the day. Our kids can’t even go to school anymore without parents asking question and surveilling their every move. University students were home and idle for over eight months because of the strike. The deplicting economy is obvious even from afar. That is why you see millions of Nigerians clamoring for an Atiku Abubakar’s presidency. And down to state level, we can see what Dr. Ifeanyi Chukwuma Odii is doing in Ebonyi State. The great people of the state really desire him as their governor. He is doing marvelously well in empowering a lot of women and children.”

Ambassador Pascal also pointed out why he is so confident with the future of the country and the hopes surrounding young people taking the helms of affairs. He further rained accolades on the Ebonyi State PDP Governorship Candidate Ifeanyi Chukwuma Odii, who got verdicts from the Supreme Court a few weeks ago to confirm his candidacy in 2023.

“The reason why i am an Atiku guy is because of his flexibility and perchance in working with young people. That is the same reason i am happy that young people are beginning to take hold of power. I am really so excited that at this junction, Ebonyi State will be witnessing a new sense of leadership in the person of Ifeanyi Chukwuma Odii, the PDP governorship candidate.

“He is a pinup guy for plausible leadership. He has expressed it in various capacities, both in public and private sectors. He is a young man who knows his onions, and we can clearly see that in his scorecards. When i saw his plans for the state, i was blown away with the strength and dynamism of his Manifesto. It speaks deep volumetric approach to governance. His micro-economic templates are very clear to fit in every citizen of the state. Most importantly, i admire the fact that his security strategy for the state is cohesive and robust. He gives premium to human capital development. Some of the institutional reforms i saw in the manifesto give me hope. Industrialization is one of those mechanisms he intends to use in creating viable jobs for the youths in the state.” Amb. Pascal Oluchukwu asserted.

“I am not saying all these things to troubleshoot his capacities; no, but we can clearly see what he has done for the State. He has shown goodliness with the way he has treated his people through his philanthropic activities. He has empowered hundreds of women and young people across the state with The Ebele & AnyiChuks Foundation. He has shown leadership and made it pretty obvious that he can make Ebonyi State a major investment destination. Ebonyi has everything to feed Nigeria; all we need is a visionary leader like Dr. Ifeanyi Chukwuma Odii. He possesses the grit, tenacity, and unyielding spirit to get things done.” Amb. Pascal concluded.
