The presidential candidate of the Labour Party, Peter Obi has vowed to dismantle the Nigerian Port Authority edifice situated in London. 

Naija News earlier reports that Peter Obi, and his running mate, Yusuf Datti Baba-Ahmed were live on Channels Television Town Hall series on Sunday to explain to what they have to offer if elected.

Speaking about tackling inefficiencies and wastage in government, the former Governor of Anambra State maintained that his administration was going to dismantle confusion in some government agencies, with emphasis on the Nigerian Ports Authority and their management.

According to Obi, the Nigeria Ports Authority is the only port authority that maintains an office outside its territory, (Nigeria).

Buttressing his point, Obi said: ”How can NPA have offices & guest houses outside Nigeria (London)? We’re going to dismantle this confusion around Nigerian ports & their management. The reason these basic issues subsist is because many people live off the inefficiencies. We are going to remove them!”

Peter Obi also blamed unnamed government officials for the country’s failure to meet the crude oil sale quota at the international market.

Obi said: “Nigeria is not able to reach the foreign quota of oil sales in the international market because the people in government are enabling the oil theft going on in Nigeria.”
