Avengers Ignores $10M, Blew Up A Major Pipeline In Response To KANU's Case
A new armed militant group in Nigeria’s Niger Delta, “The Niger Delta
Avengers” today destroyed the main pipeline supplying gas that
provides electricity to the Escravos tank farm in Delta state owned by
Chevron.
In a tweet sent from its account on Twitter, the group said the latest action was carried out after Chevron ignored its May 12 warning not to fix a major crude pipeline blown up by the group early in the month. The group did not disclose if the latest attack led to human casualties.”
This attack is coming less than 24 hours after the Appeal Court in Abuja declined Nnamdi Kanu’s bail application. The unconditional release of the Biafran leader, Kanu is one of the key demands of the militant group in their 14 day ultimatum which expires today.
