National Chairman, Action Democratic Party, Sani Yabagi, has called for President Bola Tinubu�s resignation as Minister of Petroleum, saying his position shields corruption in the oil and gas sector.

In an interview with AIT on Sunday, Shagari explained that Tinubu being the Petroleum Minister would frustrate investigation into the oil sector.

According to him, the president should resign as Minister of Petroleum to pave the way for proper investigation into the alleged fraud in the sector.

He said, �It is not making him look good at all because it portrays him as somebody who is shielding the thieves and crooks in the country.

�We all know that the problem of corruption in this country is in that sector so Tinubu should not be the person shielding them.

�For instance, when issues come up, the national assembly cannot invite anybody. You can�t hold the Minister of State for anything because his oga is somewhere. Unfortunately, his oga is the oga of everybody, so how do you invite him.

�This is the sector that matters alot. You accepted that there is fraud in the sector so why are you shielding the fraud? Why are you not allowing Nigerians to interrogate?

�Nobody in the sector has been taken to court because you can�t sue Mr president�.

DAILY POST reports that there has been a series of allegations against leadership in the oil and gas sector leading to an Unending fuel crisis in the country.
