Nigeria’s security agencies have been uncovering and destroying illegal oil refineries in Imo and Delta State in recent times.
A combined team of security agencies, on Thursday, uncovered and destroyed two more illegal refineries in Egbema West in Ohaji/Egbema Local Government Area of Imo State, South-east Nigeria.
“The troops (and the other security agencies) completely shut down the operation of the illegal refining sites containing 44 drum ovens, three reservoirs of estimated 30,000 litres capacity of illegally refined Automotive Gas Oil (AGO) and 53 sacks of AGO,” he said.
