Commandant-General of the corps, Ade Abolurin, said this on Saturday, while addressing 50 personnel of the corps who had been chosen for anti-vandalism training in Kaduna State.
We have also arrested two foreigners from Ghana and China in the Lagos metropolis over illegal bunkering; we have also been able to discover some illegal refineries.''
Abolurin said the 150 operators of the illegal oil bunkers were arrested in separate operations by men of the corps in Akwa-Ibom, Cross River, Enugu, Imo and Niger.
He said the corps was working with the Nigerian Army, Police and the State Security Service to check the activities of illegal bunkers on the sea.
We are making efforts to create a crime free environment in order to make Nigerians appreciate the transformation agenda of President Goodluck Jonathan.
We will try and carry out our mandate, in this case, we will be ready to face challenges,’’ he said.
According to him, about 100 newly-trained sniffer dogs will be graduating from their training camp.
The dogs, he said, would be deployed in checking the activities of criminals.
