The High Command of
the Niger Delta Avengers (NDA), has announced that the militant group will shock
Nigerians with more dastardly acts this year. The threat was contained in a
statement signed by the group's spokesperson, Brigadier-General Mudoch
Agbinigbo. The NDA said its range of activities designed to reclaim the Niger
Delta in 2017 will be carried out under Operations Walls Of Jericho and
Hurricane Joshua.
"As we get prepared for the challenges ahead
2017, We make bold to tell the people of our Niger Delta, sane minds
in Nigeria and the comity of nations that the remaining 11 months
and couple of weeks in 2017 will be filled with surprises and a
reconfiguration of the struggle for the liberation of our motherland.
"Since,
the declaration of cessation of hostilities in the region by all fighters
and affiliates, it has been evidently clear that the Nigerian state is not
ready for any form of dialogue and negotiation with our people to addressing
the issues sustaining the unending sufferings and deprivation of the people of
the Niger Delta.
"The
world is aware that, after listening to calls from our Royal Fathers, Community
Leaders, Stakeholders and members of the comity of nations especially the
governments of the United States of America, Great Britain and the European
Union, we halted all actions," the NDA said.
It
accused the Federal Government of rejecting genuine dialogue and
negotiations.
"The
world knows that PANDEF, as team of critical stakeholders, was mandated to
engender a genuine dialogue and negotiations process that will be made up of
apolitical Niger Deltans to engage with the government and people of
Nigeria, representatives of the International Oil Corporations and neutral
observers.
"But
this government decided to go around to politicizing the process to forestall any
genuine dialogue and negotiations," alleged the NDA.
On
account of this, the group said its next line of action to red will soon be
unveiled to the chagrin of the Federal Government. Employing sarcasm, the NDA
stated: "It is our belief that the 2017 national budget is not
based on the crude oil production output from the Niger Delta, but on the
newly found oil deposits in the North and the new pipelines constructed from
the Niger Republic."
The
NDA also warned International Oil Companies and their partners that have been
awarded the 2017/2018 crude oil term contracts by the Federal Government that
those contracts represent a conspiracy against the Niger Delta.
It
listed the contract beneficiaries as Nigerian state as including Sonara Refinery, Hindustan
Refinery, Cepsa Refinery, Bharat Petroleum, Varo
Energy, Trafigura, ENOC Trading, BP Trading, Total
Trading, UCL Petrol Energy, Mocho and Tevier Petroleum.
Also on the list are Heritage Oil, Levene
Energy, Glencore, Litasco Supply and Trading, Indian Oil
Company, China's Sinopec and South Africa's Saccoil.
Nigerian companies on the list are Oando, Sahara Energy, MRS Oil
and Gas, A.A Rano, Bono, Masters Energy, Etarna Oil and
Gas, Cassiva Energy, Hyde Energy, Britania
U, Northwest Petroleum and Optima Energy. Others are AMG
Petroenergy, Arkleen Oil & Gas Ltd, Shoreline Limited, Emo
Oil, Setana Energy,Prudent Energy, Duke Oil Limited and Carlson
Hyson
The
NDA said all its fighters and commands are ready to hit the Nigerian state hard
because of its recalcitrance.
"That
is the way to discuss with the deaf, when he cannot understand your soft
massage. We are determined to hit him very hard and deadly that even his eyes
will shed blood, his ear will be more deafened and his heart shall quake when
he sees, hear and feel the outcome of our next activities.
"On
this note, we are declaring "Operations Walls of Jericho and Hurricane
Joshua” simultaneously to reclaim our motherland and dislodge all
cleavages the Nigerian ruling oligarchy has foisted on the region that is
sustaining the country," said NDA.
