Rampaging militant group, the Niger Delta Avengers, has
accused Military officers sent to forestall law and order in the oil rich
region of engaging in oil bunkering. This is as the group alleged that they have video, pictorial
evidence and records of soldiers’ involvement in crude oil theft.
Avengers in a statement release by its spokesman, Gen Mudoch
Agbinibo yesterday, said it had records of what soldiers collect and make per
day from illegal oil bunkering. The group also dismissed reports linking its members to the
killing of four soldiers in Nembe, Bayelsa State.
Wondering why the military always connect them to crimes,
Avengers said, “It is a shame that Operations Delta Safe is still employing the
old habit of deliberately dining and wining with fake intelligence from
political thugs, political paymasters and enemies of the Niger Delta to
perpetuate their continuous funding and relevance by leveraging on the hunger
in the land.
“One question for the Commander of Operation Delta Safe, is,
who are the people perpetuating the ongoing illegal oil bunkering in the Niger
Delta at the moment? We have both video and still photographs of the serious
involvement of your troops in the pervasive crude oil thefts. We have records
of how much profit you collect and make per day from these atrocities in the
Niger Delta.
“To set the records straight, we cannot come after your dane
guns and ammunition. Since the start of ‘Operation Red Economy,’ our forces
have not fired one shot until we have achieved this great success of crippling
crude oil productions in the Niger Delta to about 800,000 barrels per day.
“Those gang members paraded as killers of troops of ODS are
well known followers of Mr. Africa Ukparasai and Mr Timipre Silva, who were
armed by the All Progressives Congress, APC, during the governorship election
in Bayelsa State.
“If your forces and formations come under attack by
notorious elements of your own political collaborators and calculations, you
should accept it as a friendly fire (from your own dubious creations getting
loosed and fighting back to protect their territories and bellies) and enjoy it
while it last. Excuse the NDA from your “Pig and Mud squabbles.
“Yesterday was Arepo in Ogun State, today is Nembe in
Bayelsa State, which is the next state you want to involve the NDA in this your
bread and butter security conspiracies and collaborations?”
