According to Militant group Niger Delta Avengers, they have
video and pictorial evidence that show troops of the "Operation Delta
Safe force", which was activated on June 24
with the mandate to stop all illegal oil bunkering activity,
involvement in thefts. They also condemned security reports linking
their militant forces to the killing of military troops. The statement
read;
"The High Command of the Niger Delta Avengers condemns the
entire security reports linking our forces to the killing of military
troops in Nembe Bayelsa state. NDA still wonders when this charade and
acts of desperation of the Nigeria military by always linking crimes in
the southern part of Nigeria to our fighters will stop. It is a shame
that Operations Delta Safe is still employing the old habits of
deliberately dinning and wining with unaudited intelligence from
political thugs, political paymasters and enemies of the Niger Delta to
perpetuate their continuous funding and relevance by catching in on the
hunger in the land. One question for the commander of Operation Delta
Safe! Who are the people perpetuating the ongoing illegal oil bunkerings
in the Niger Delta at the moment? Because we have both video and
pictorial evidences of your troops serious involvement in the pervasive
crude oil thefts. We have records of how much profit you collect and
make per day from these atrocities in the Niger Delta.
To set the records straight, we cannot come after your Dane
guns and ammunitions. Since the start of " Operation Red Economy" our
forces did not fire one shot until we have achieved this great success
of crippling crude oil productions in the Niger Delta to about 800,000
barrels per day. Those gangs members paraded as killers of troops of
ODS are well known followers of Mr Africa Ukparasai and Mr Timipre
Silva, that were purposefully armed by the APC during the governorship
elections of Bayelsa state... If your forces and formations comes
under attack by notorious elements of your own political collaborators
and calculations you should accept it as a friendly fire ( from your
own dubious creations getting loosed and fighting back to protect their
territories and bellies) and enjoy it whilst it last! excuse the NDA
from your " Pig and Mud squabbles"
Yesterday was Arepo in Ogun state, today is Nembe in
Bayelsa state where is the next state you want to involve the NDA in
this your bread and butter security conspiracies and collaborations ?
Please count us of your incapacities and blackmails. Is this not the
Operation Delta Safe that is the puppet and child of necessity of some
jail Birds and political shenanigans like Charles Okah's MEND and RNDA?
We the NDA and Niger Delta People knows that you are not to here to
protect anything in the region rather you have come to perpetuate more
crude oil thefts that is worst.As such, we have avoided everything that
will justify your continuous stay and sour your illicit funds . Just a
moment, in our reality checks, from Operation Hakuri two, Operation
Restore Hope, Operation Pulo Shield and today Operation Delta Safe
your formations and troops have always being the merchants of illegal
oil bunkering activities in our Niger Delta. Your outfits in most cases
deliberately trigger killings and kidnappings to make your services
relevant.
Conclusively, we want to ask if it is best practices for
heads of military formations in the Niger Delta to become super rich
months after been deployment, acquiring properties
locally/internationally? it is our wish that, one day governments of
Nigeria can think right and redirect these huge resources used to fund
these your illicit and infamous outfits to achieving especially some of
the short term development frameworks in the Niger Delta to the
de-escalation of the perennial traumas the people are passing throughout
the region."
