6 Division Commanding New General Officer of the Nigeria Army, Major General Emmanuel Emekah has revealed that he will take war to the camp of suspected illegal oil bunkers in Niger Delta in targeting 2.3 million barrels of crude oil production to 2.5 million barrels per day in 2025.
Major General Emmanuel Emekah, who spoke to journalists shortly after he assumed duty as the new General Officer Commanding (GOC) of 6 Division, Nigerian Army expressed optimism that the division will surpass the federal government’s target of 2.3 million barrels per day (bpd) of crude oil production to 2.5 million barrels.
He charged his officers to work hard to surpass the achievements of the division and the federal government’s 2.3 million barrels per day target, setting a target of 2.5 million bpd.
“We will not disappoint you. The task, we are not looking at 2.3 million barrels per day, we are looking at 2.5 millions bpd so that even if we miss it, we will drop to 2.4 million bpd.
“We are going to do our best, you have to tighten your belt, I am not the commander that sits in the office. I am not comfortable sitting in the office, I will be platoon commander to some of your units. You will be seeing me, the chief of staff will be doing the office work while I will be in the field,” he said.
