Suspected militants blew up strategic pipelines in Warri South West local government area of Delta State on Friday, creating tension among residents of Gbaramatu kingdom and other parts of the State.
It was gathered that multiple explosions also hit several oil installations between Ikpokpo and Odidi flow stations, mostly in Gbaramatu kingdom.
This development is coming barely 24 hours after a Federal High Court in Lagos ordered security operatives to arrest Chief Government Ekpemupolo.
Ekpemupolo, otherwise known as Tompolo, is one of the founders of the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND). He hails from Kurutie community in Gbaramatu.
Nation report that the attacks started shortly before midnight and lasted till the early hours of Friday.
