A coalition of ethnic and political pressure groups in the Niger Delta, under the aegis of United Niger Delta Energy Development Security Strategy, UNDEDSS, has called on the Federal Government to revoke all oil blocs given out by previous administrations to ensure equity and fairness in the country.

Speaking with newsmen in Lagos, Secretary General of UNDEDSS, Mr. Tony Uranta, said: “Nigeria should scrap ownership of all oil blocs and begin at zero point to re-allocate them in the spirit of fairness and equity.

“Oil blocs should now be allocated based on federal character principle since the nation is reluctant to give us either total control or make sure the Niger Delta gets what it deserves.”
