Nigeria’s Crude Oil Production Rises To Over 1.7 Million Barrels Daily, Says Enisouh

Nigeria’s crude oil production has rebounded to over 1.7 million barrels per day (bpd), thanks in large part to the strategic operations of TANTITA Security Services Nigeria Limited, a private firm led by High Chief Dr. Government Ekpemupolo, popularly known as Tompolo. The Executive Director of Operations and Technical for the company, Captain Warredi Enisuoh, made this revelation on Friday in Warri during the commissioning of the newly built and furnished permanent secretariat of the Nigeria Union of Journalists (NUJ) Warri Correspondents’ Chapel.

Enisuoh noted that prior to TANTITA’s engagement by the Federal Government to secure critical oil and gas infrastructure, Nigeria’s crude oil production had dropped to an alarming 700,000 bpd due to rampant oil theft in the Niger Delta. However, the company’s intervention, carried out in collaboration with security agencies, has reversed the trend dramatically.

“When we came in, Nigeria was producing around 700,000 barrels per day. Today, we have pushed that figure above 1.7 million bpd. That’s the result of our relentless operations against oil theft,” Enisuoh declared. “Trucks used to come from as far as Niger Republic to lift stolen crude. But we have been able to bring that level of environmental and economic sabotage to the barest minimum.”

The operations boss stressed that the battle against crude oil theft is not solely for security operatives but a patriotic responsibility for all Nigerians. He urged citizens to join the campaign to protect the country’s oil wealth from criminal syndicates who drain resources and damage the environment.

He emphasized that TANTITA’s success was built on a broader strategy that included engaging the media to tell the story of Nigeria’s fight against economic sabotage. “We knew that protecting pipelines was not enough. We needed to control the narrative and mobilize public support, and that is where the NUJ came in,” Enisuoh said, explaining the rationale behind the company’s gesture to the journalists’ union.

While the rest of the commissioning ceremony celebrated TANTITA’s donation of a permanent secretariat to NUJ Warri Chapel, speakers consistently acknowledged the firm’s vital contribution to national economic recovery through increased oil production. Delta State Governor Sheriff Oborevwori, represented by DESOPADEC’s Executive Director of Projects, Dr. Ebenezar Okorodudu, praised TANTITA for not only fulfilling its mandate but also demonstrating “a clear sense of purpose and societal responsibility.”

The NUJ leadership, including National President Alhassan Yahyah and Warri Chapel Chairman Victor Okpomor, commended TANTITA for its unprecedented support. Other notable figures at the event included former NUJ President Chris Isiguzo, the Ovie of Idjerhe Kingdom HRM King Monday Obukohwo Whiskey, and former Naval Intelligence chief Commodore Omatseye Nesiama (Rtd), all of whom described TANTITA’s efforts as revolutionary in addressing both insecurity and crude oil losses in the Niger Delta.

Though the commissioning event also spotlighted the significance of the new NUJ secretariat and the philanthropic spirit of Tompolo and his associates, the prevailing narrative remained the resurgence of Nigeria’s crude oil production—a testament to what focused private sector engagement can achieve in national development.

Present at the occasion were, Emmanuel Enebeli, Chairman Delta Online Publishers Forum, DOPF, Journalist and Publisher Areanewsng.com, Comrade Celestine Ukah; former Deputy Director of Naval Intelligence, Commodore Omatseye Nesiama (Rtd); and Brig. Gen. Felix Dafioghor, Dr Paul Benebibemo, Registrar of Nigerian Maritime University, Daniel Oji, Publisher Actual News, Felix Ekwu, Publisher of Newsnet and other invited guests.

…Says hardened lifestyle, criminal activities traced to use of hard drugs

Delta State Governor, Rt Hon Sheriff Oborevwori, will continue to prioritize war against substance abuse through deliberate collaborations with the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA and other Stakeholders to crash the prevalence rate in the state.

Director General, Delta State Bureau for Orientation and Communications, Dr Fred Latimore Oghenesivbe, gave the assurance while speaking as a guest of “Orientation Panorama,” a public affairs program on Voice of Delta Radio, to mark the International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking in Asaba.

He disclosed that as at 2023, drug abuse prevalence rate in Delta State among people of ages 15 and 64 years was 18 per cent, with over half a million of the population involved, noting that the number had dropped drastically in the past two years of Oborevwori administration, as a result of the proactive measures adopted by the State government in the ongoing Drug Free Delta campaign in collaboration with the State Command of NDLEA.

The Bureau Chief assured that the second phase of the state wide “Drug Free Delta” campaign will soon commence in 58 selected Secondary Schools, all State owned Universities, Polytechnics and Colleges of Education across the three senatorial districts, in collaboration with the State Command of the National Drug Law Enforcement Agency, NDLEA.

Dr Oghenesivbe said over ninety five percent (95%) of criminal activities including; armed robbery, kidnapping, rape, sexual abuse, domestic violence, advance fee fraud also known as 419 or Yahoo-Yahoo, and other layers of criminal activities have been traced to use of hard drugs and substance abuse globally.

He further disclosed that governor Oborevwori at a security meeting with members of the State House of Assembly, Security Chiefs, Local Government Chairmen, Traditional Rulers and Senior Government Officials, emphasized the need to intensify the campaign against substance abuse, use of hard drugs, arrest and prosecution of illicit drugs traffickers.

He commended governor Oborevwori’s unwavering commitment towards the welfare and well-being of all Deltans, particularly the youths, women, widows and incapacitated senior citizens who are adequately captured in the social security and free health programmes of the state government as encapsulated in the MORE Agenda.

“As we mark the 2025 International Day Against Drug Abuse and Illicit Trafficking, be rest assured that Governor Sheriff Oborevwori would continue to prioritize the Drug Free Delta campaign, and war against substance abuse generally.

“Delta is also leading in the area of multifaceted collaborations and sensitization campaign against use of hard drugs and drug control measures in Nigeria.

“The governor is consistently funding and equipping security agencies through the provision of operational vehicles and gadgets to enhance security surveillance, apprehend and prosecute illicit drugs traffickers in the state.

“The state command of NDLEA and other security agencies recently received Toyota Hilux Vans from the state government, and they are doing a tremendous job by arresting suspected criminals, prosecuting them and keeping Delta Safe and secured.

“This people focused administration is also investing heavily in the area of rehabilitation, counselling and empowerment of drug victims through the construction of a mega rehabilitation center in Kwale, and a medium centre in Agbor. Both centres will be well managed to achieve government objectives.

“Upon completion of the two centers the state Command of the NDLEA and the state government would jointly develop strategies and programmes that would transform the health and living conditions of both male and female drug victims with a view to upscaling their social status and reintegrate them into the society,” Oghenesivbe assured.
