Indications are rife that the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC, Warri Refining and Petrochemical Company, WRPC, Petroleum Product Marketing Company, PPMC and the Petroleum and Pipeline Marketing Company, PPMC may be heading for legal fireworks with the Dottie family of Warri over the gruesome murder of one of their sons, late Omayone Dottie.

The late Omayone Dottie, father of a year and seven months’ old twin was gruesomely shot dead in cold blood December 18, 2016 at Ifiekporo in Warri South Local Government Area, Delta State, by an undisclosed Police Officer engaged to guard the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation, NNPC and its subsidiaries.

Addressing newsmen Thursday March 16 at the country home of the deceased, representative of Dottie family and uncle to late Omayone Dottie, Pastor Samuel Dottie, stated that till date “no reason has been given why he (Omayone Dottie) was murdered in cold blood”.

While noting that “no sign of remorse has been shown to the immediate family of late Mr. Omayone and the larger Dottie family by the trigger happy Policemen and the management of NNPC” as well as its subsidiaries, Pastor Dottie alleged that “some Police Officers stationed along the Nigerian National Petroleum Cooperation/Warri Refining and Petro-Chemical Company (WRPC) Petroleum Product Marketing Company, PPMC have boasted that arrested armed robbery suspects will be traded out to take the place/and or fall of the actual Policemen who are involved in the plot that led to the death of late Mr. Omayone Dottie”.

The Dottie family are equally demanding that the Delta State Commissioner of Police should “initiate criminal proceeding against the Policemen that conspired and the one that shot at Omayone Dottie” as well as the management of NNPC and its subsidiaries.

They also want to know the identity of the Policemen who pulled the trigger that killed late Dottie.





Meanwhile, President of Itsekiri National Youths Council, incorporated as Itsekiri Native Youth Council, INYC, Comrade Weyinmi Agbateyiniro has given the Police hierarchy, the management of NNPC and its subsidiaries seven days ultimatum with effect from Thursday March 16 to resolve with the Dottie family or face “Macaba Dance with” Itsekiri youths.

While pledging Itsekiri youths’ support for the Dottie family until they get justice, Comrade Agbateyiniro noted that Itsekiris will not accept any conspiracy to protect killers of late Omayone Dottie.
