A
militant group, Niger Delta Greenland Justice Mandate, NDGJM, in the
early hours of Tuesday, blew up the Afiesere-Iwhrenene major delivery
line to UPS/UQCC, operated by Nigeria Petroleum Development Company,
NDPC/Shorelines Petroleum in Ughelli North Local Government Area of
Delta State.
The attack confirmed by a leader of the
group, self-styled Gen. Aldo Agbalaja, came as the Niger Delta Avengers,
NDA, which ceased hostilities, last month, accused the military of
harassing old men, women and innocent youths in the region under the
guise of hunting for militants.
Meanwhile, the Ijaw People Development
Initiative, IPDI, has warned that the Federal Government’s plan to
continue to militarize the region and intimidate the people despite the
fact that NDA and other dangerous militant groups had opted for dialogue
will not make the region to forsake the Niger Delta struggle.
