He also stressed the need to educate  youths within the region on the ills of illegal oil bunkering.  “We will educate our youths on the dangers of this, which is part of our mandate, educating our youths on why they must leave these illegalities. We must all come together to see how we can tackle this menace. I want to assure you that we will work together”, he said.
