LOCAL CONTENT CAN SOLVE UNEMPLOYMENT IN NIGER DELTA-OIL

By AkanimoReports 

A local oil servicing company in the Niger Delta, Nigeria's honey comb, has said that ''a drastic reduction'' in unemployment problem in the area, will depend on how stakeholders implement the country's Local Content Act.

Executive Director of the oil firm, FENOG Nigeria Limited, Mr. Matthew Tonlagha, told a correspondent of AkanimoReports in Warri, the commercial heartbeat of Delta State, on Tuesday that the company has ''so much confidence in the law''.

FENOG which said they will keep doing their best to adhere to the law, expressed confidence in the Act, even as they pleaded with President Goodluck Jonathan to put more steam to make it work just as the Local Content Board has once again showered praises on the company for leading the way in the Local Content drive.
