  • Niger Delta Militants

The Niger Delta Millitants have issued a fresh warning on the bombing of Oil facilities from lagos to Niger Delta, Eko hot blog gathered.

The militant groups that made up the RNDA, in a statement issued on Tuesday and signed by its National Coordinator, threatened that with effect from this day on the 7th of January 2021, its strike force units in the nine states of the region will kick start bombing and destruction of oil facilities and oil pipelines and major oil ships and vessels coming from Lagos to the creek of Niger Delta.

The peace talk between the RNDA and the federal government, which was initiated last year by the Deputy Senate President, Senator Ovie Omo-Agege, was recently threatened by the appointment of Mr Akwa Effiong Okon as sole administrator for the Niger Delta Development Commission (NDDC)and the non-recognition of the Niger Delta region in the policy statements made by President Muhammadu Buhari during the January 1st broadcast to the nation.

According to the group, ”the major vessels and ships are advised to withdraw their services to Warri ESCRAVOS Waters, to Bonny NLNG Port Harcourt waters from the Gulf of Guinea to Nigeria water ways should stop their services henceforth and any of the ships and the vessels that refuse to comply with our directive will meet with the fire power attack from the dreaded strike force units of the RNDA militant groups.”

According to the group, the operation is code named “Operation No Mercy Alfa Piper zero oil” to save NDDC from the hands of politicians including the Minister of the Niger Delta Affairs, Senator Godswill Akpabio, the sole Administrator, Mr. Akwa Effiong Okon and some Presidential aides involved in the plot to hold the Niger Delta to ransom.

The RNDA, however, commended the efforts of the Deputy Senate President, Chief Ovie Omo Agege over his efforts at rallying round all stakeholders in the region including traditional rulers, the leadership of Hostcom and the various agitating militant groups in the region for building bridge of peace among all ethnic nationalities in the region.

The leadership of the RNDA militant group in the creek has come to the conclusion that even though President Muhammadu Buhari refuse to recognize that the Niger Delta region is more significant and more important than any other region or sector in the country in terms of rapid development in the remaining years of his administration.”

Even though such illegality was perpetuated during his absence from the Villa and in Daura, Katsina state, the refusal of President Buhari to reverse such and sanction those involved in an action not known to the national assembly that gives birth to the creation of the NDDC commission in 2000.

“The only solution to the issue on ground is for President Muhammadu Buhari to listen to the call and agitations of the Niger Delta People.
