“The Nigerian Navy has consistently thwarted numerous efforts by crude oil thieves. These successes have contributed positively to the increase in Nigeria’s crude oil output,” the statement read.

Giving the breakdown, the Naval Spokesman said: ” On Saturday 1 February 2025, a wooden boat laden with 19 x 250 litres drums of Premium Motor Spirit (PMS) being smuggled to the Republic of Cameroon was seized around Effiat creek, Akwa Ibom State.
