The Public Relations Officer of the NSCDC in Delta State, Emeka Peters, disclosed this in a statement in Asaba on Sunday.
Peters said: “Heads will roll, if the corps decides to publish the names of those behind crude oil theft, pipeline vandalism, illegally dealing in petroleum products, economic sabotage amongst others.
“Following preliminary investigation and confessional statements from suspects arrested, the suspects revealed some of the identities of their sponsors and those behind crude oil theft, pipeline vandalism, illegal refineries, economic sabotage and a host of other socio-economic crimes under the purview of the NSCDC.
“The force is poised to publish the names of those behind the dastardly act, which, as indicated from the confessional statements made by suspects, contained names of high profile personalities, respected leaders in the societies, even retired and serving uniform personnel and their relatives.”
Peters noted that the “machine, equipment and technical know-how” used by crude oil vandals are expensive and not affordable by the commoners.
