The Senate has described the blowing up of gas installations by the Niger Delta militants as counterproductive to the region, its economy and its people.
Chairman of Senate Committee on Petroleum Downstream Sector, Senator Kabiru Marafa, stated this on Friday, while speaking with State House correspondents.
He had just held a closed-door meeting with President Muhammadu Buhari at the Presidential Villa in Abuja, Nigeria’s capital.
Senator Marafa pleaded with the militants to embrace dialogue with the Federal Government.
He described President Buhari as a listening leader that is ready to deal with the problems in the Niger Delta region.
