Yakubu Dogara who is a former Speaker of the House of Representatives, has appealed to President Bola Tinubu to pursue oil cabals and bring them to face justice.
Speaking to the congregants on the sidelines of a Thanksgiving Church service in honour of the out-going General Secretary of Evangelical Church Winning All (ECWA) in Kaduna state, Reverend Yunusa Nmadu, the former Speaker said that the President has so far demonstrated leadership and should be commended by all citizens.
He, however, insisted that the President should ensure that all the looted funds are recovered from the oil cabals.
Dogara also commended the President on the appointment of new service chiefs, noting that Tinubu has demonstrated leadership by carrying every region along regardless of party, ethnicity, and religion.

On their part, the ECWA General Secretary, Reverend Yunusa Nmadu; and the Senator representing Southern Kaduna, Sunday Katung also commended the President on the appointment of the new service chiefs, which according to them, is a demonstration of equity and justice.
They, however, urged the new service chiefs to address issue of insecurity, ravaging the country, particularly in the northern region, just as they called on the President to provide palliatives to cushion the effects of the fuel subsidy removal.
Africa Today News, New York recalled that Tinubu had instructed the nation’s Security Chiefs to deal with oil theft, saying he won’t tolerate the menace.
He gave the charge to the Security Chiefs on Thursday in his first official engagement with the heads of the nation’s security and intelligence agencies since he assumed office on Monday.
National Security Adviser (NSA), Babagana Mungono, disclosed this to State House correspondents after a meeting between the President and Security Chiefs at the Presidential Villa, Abuja.
Monguno said, ‘He is going to embark on a lot of reforms in terms of our security architecture, he is going to take a closer look at our misfortunes in the maritime domain, focusing particularly on the issues of oil theft, that he is not going to tolerate. Wherever the problem is coming from it must be crushed as soon as possible.’
He said the President emphasised the need for coordinated efforts to combat terrorism, insurgency, banditry, oil theft, sea robbery, piracy, and other security threats.
