Ahead of the proposed negotiations between the Niger Delta Leaders and the Federal Government which has been scheduled for October 31, the strike team 06 of the Niger Delta Avengers, NDA today at about 3:45am bombed the Chevron Escravos Export pipeline at Escravos Offshore in Warri South-West Local Government Area of Delta State.
A statement by the Niger Delta Avengers, Brig. Gen. Mudoch Agbinibo warned that the bombing of the pipeline is to reaffirm their warnings to the Federal Government not to negotiate with leaders of the Niger Delta region.
The NDA also warned that the proposed dialogue will be halted by the group who will not be distracted to allow free flow of oil from the Niger Delta.
According to the NDA, “This action is to further warn all IOCs’ that when we warn that there should be no repairs pending negotiation/dialogue with the people of the Niger Delta, it means there should be no repairs. Any attempt to use dialogue to distract us so as to allow the free flow of our oil will halt the dialogue process.
It is yet to be seen if the meeting will still hold on October 31.
