Statement made available to Pointblank reads that the Ex-militants who boast of having arms and ammunitions more than the entire Nigerian Arm forces said they would help in disintegrating Nigeria.
In a press statement which was signed by a foremost militant Gen. Egbesu Mightier Fraternity, the group warned the Federal Government will ‘get
what they want’ should they continue to toe the path of harassing their leaders.
They issued a cease and desist order threatening Nigeria’s strategic oil interests and hinting that any attacks on Oil facilities will make things
worse for Nigeria in the light of the recent decline in oil prices.
“With oil prices slipping below 40 dollars a barrel, if the government of President Buhari is willing, we will help to reduce its price of barrel to
15 dollars.
Nigeria will collapse under the watch of All Progressive Congress (APC) and President Muhammadu Buhari as we will do everything necessary to
actualize the American prediction“.
“The silence in the region is a legacy of former President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua should not be thrown away on the altar of vindictiveness. The
government should thread with caution and wisdom by ensuring that anything capable of provoking anger in the region is avoided or else every region shall maintain their respective resources because the money belongs to the people of the region and not APC and Buhari government“.
It will be recalled that Gas line from Olero creeks to Escravos were hit. The main crude line from Makaraba through Otunana, Abiteye and others were also reportedly put out of operation by the hoodlums.
Chevron Nigeria Limited and other oil companies in the riverside areas of Delta state are shutting down their operations on Saturday after another
wanton destruction of oil facilities crippled a large portion of production.
Although Ekpemupolo (aka Tompolo) denied responsibility for the earlier attack on Friday morning, source in the area and security operatives
believe that he is masterminding the attacks.
The attack started hours after an arrest order was issued on him by a Federal High Court.
