    The  Nigeria Security and Civil Defence Corps (NSCDC) have arrested a marine welder, Iyamba Edem-Iyamba, in Calabar for attempting to vandalise NNPC’s pipeline.

    The attempted vandalism, if it was carried out successfully, would have syphoned petroleum products into the facility of a company, Mettle Energy and Gas Company.

    “A similar thing happened in the same company in 2020 when one of the company’s tanks was used to syphon petroleum products from the NNPC pipeline.

    “Five Persons were convicted then for vandalising the NNPC pipeline and they served their jail term.

    “They forfeited some cars and other property to the Federal Government,’’ NSCD’s commandant in Cross River, Mr Samuel Fadeyi, said on Monday in Calabar, while parading Edem-Iyamba before newsmen.
