Nigerian Army captures Niger Delta Avengers' leader
Nigerian Army captures Niger Delta Avengers' leader
POSTED BY: ADMIN MAY 15, 2016
Fierce looking members of the Nigerian Army invaded Oporoza, the traditional headquarters of Gbaramatu Kingdom again in wee hours of today (Sunday) in search of Niger Delta Avengers’ members.

After members of Niger Delta Avengers bombed another oil facility belonging to Chevron Nigeria Limited, President Muhammadu Buhari ordered the Nigerian Military to capture the culprits by all means. Following this order, the Military invaded Oporoza twice within one week.

An Army officer who spoke anonymously stated that “Members of Nigerian Army captured five members of Niger Delta Avengers, one of which is believed to be one of the leaders of the dreaded group. Following the bombing, we established a wide perimeter and initiated a high security search.

“The suspects were taken into the custody of the army in the area, but are yet to make statements or admit if they are members of the Niger Delta Avengers or otherwise. They have been relocated to the 19th Battalion, Nigerian Army, Koko, Warri North.”

Bloomberg reports that the recent wave of attacks by Militants have hit infrastructure, taking Nigeria’s output down to 20-year lows.

With no solution in sight to the problems that beset the delta’s creeks and mangrove swamps, production from onshore and shallow-water oil fields looks vulnerable. If the latest group of freedom fighters seeks to outdo its predecessors, then deep-water facilities may be at risk too.

The Niger Delta Avengers have certainly been busy, forcing Shell’s Forcados terminal to shut in about 250,000 barrels of daily exports; and breaching an offshore Chevron facility in the 160,000 barrels per day Escravos system. In April, ENI had to declare force majeure — letting it stop shipments without breaching contracts — on exports of its Brass River grade after a pipeline fire.

In its latest report, the IEA assessed the world’s need for OPEC crude this quarter at 31.9 million barrels a day, with Nigeria contributing 1.62 million to the group’s 32.76 million output in April. This a far cry from projected daily output captured in the just approved national budget.

How true is this?

And you expect me to believe this trash

It's difficult to believe this administration this days. They've been speaking from both sides of their mouth lately.

Picture evidence or I don't believe it.
Else, another headline will read "the man reportedly captured by the Nigeria army was a lookalike".

OK. But they have not made statement yet.

Well done Nigerian army they should know that this present administration will not tolerate their madness.

A faceless group.

The army should make sure he is truly the leader.

The topic is misleading. The soldiers statement below shows they were not sure whom they captured.
I pray they capture them sha.

Wow that was fast

Like the British envoy said...military confrontation isn't the best solution.
Remember, these guys hv several strike teams, so capturing their leader (which l doubt) doesn't stop his strike teams from doing their jobs.

Buhari, executing the National Confab report is the best solution.

OK na, so what next

Thank God for the Nigerian Army/military. It is better to deal with these disgruntled elements before they go out of hand.

Sometimes, I wonder whether they ever think of who will be the one to surfer most (Niger Deltans or Non Niger Deltans). The destructions destroy your land and no money for the government means no or little money will get to the area.

Destruction is not the answer but making your leaders accountable for whatever is earmarked for the area. There is good and big money for the area but these monies are stolen.

Destruction of facilities, intimidations, kidnapping, extortion, etc is chasing investors from the area. Your leaders too are refusing to invest in the area because of fears of the unknown. The monies are taken to areas that are safe to invest such as Lagos, Abuja and even Ibadan.

Please come together as a people and make plans to build the area, make your leaders accountable and allow others to join in the development without fear or favour.

Niger Delta is one of the best place in the world if the people of the area (leaders and ordinary citizens) makes the place safe.

Thank you.

just the way you did not believe the arrest of KANU Nnandi (yellow rat) in October 2015.There is something really symbolic about President buhari. The ease with which he takes erstwhile militant leaders into captivity is un parallel. Imagine the previously untouchables terrorist are either in captivity or in exile or surrendered. Check this: abubakar shekau - surrendered
Sheik El Zakzaki. - captivity
Nnandi KANU. - captivity
Tompolo. - exile
Dakubo Asari. - Born again
These Fulani's are really created to rule.

Last last all na wash! Phew

Stories. Capture militants? How? The funny thing is some low IQ Nairalanders will be this trash
