Bayelsa - Pipeline surveillance contractors from Obama, Okoroma in
Nembe Local Government Area of Bayelsa State, have sued Nigerian Agip
Oil Company, claiming N3 billion as damages for breach of contract, Vanguard reports.
The
plaintiffs are claiming in the suit that Agip reneged on a contractual
agreement entered on May 24, 2014 between parties, by opting out of the
contract outside the terms of the contract.
The contract was for a
retainership of surveillance services against oil thieves and pipeline
vandals on Agip’s pipeline network within the Obama Operational Area in
Okoroma, Bayelsa State.
They
are asking the court to direct Agip to pay them N500 million being
arrears for services rendered, for the period between June 2014 and
October 2014, under the terms of the anti-crude oil theft surveillance
agreement.
They also want the court to award the sum of N3
billion damages against the defendants for breach of contract and undue
interference.
