The Nigerian National Petroleum Company Ltd (NNPCL), Mr. Mele Kyari, former NNPCL CEO, and others have countered the Incorporated Trustees of the AGIP Indigenous Contractors Association and others, who allege that the former unlawfully awarded a pipeline surveillance security contract to Tantita Security Services Limited in the oil-rich Niger Delta.
This is contained in NNPCL and Mele Kyari’s counter-affidavit before the Federal High Court, Abuja, exclusively reviewed by Nairametrics.
AGIP contractors, who identify themselves in court as the apex organization representing the interests of indigenous contractors from oil and gas-producing communities in the Niger Delta, had sued the NNPCL, Kyari, and others, alleging an unlawful bidding process regarding the awarded pipeline surveillance security contract to Tantita.
