Amid sketchy details, recall that TSSNL, in collaboration with the Nigerian Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) in January, arrested a vessel engaged in stealing crude oil in the Niger Delta.
The vessel, MT Kali with number 8782800, was intercepted while allegedly transporting a voluminous tonnage of illegal crude oil from offshore Sokebolou Field base in Bayelsa State.
The feat attracted ovations from President Bola Tinubu and other patriots across the country with TSSNL being awarded the private security outfit of the year by the New Telegraph newspapers in Lagos.
