BEVERLY HILLS, SEPTEMBER 13, (THEWILL) – A militant group, the Niger Delta Greenland Justice Mandate, NDGJM, on Tuesday claimed that it has blown up a pipeline belonging to the Nigeria Petroleum Development Company, NDPC, in Delta state.
The group stated that the attack occurred in the early hours of Tuesday, warning people living around oil installations in the Niger Delta region to vacate their residence “if you love your lives”.
In a statement by its spokesperson, Aldo Agbalaja, the group said, “As a mark of our faith to totally grounding the Nigerian oil economy, the gallant “Opudo” strike forces brought down the Afiesere- Iwhrenene major delivery line in Ughelli North, leading to the UPS/UQCC operated by NPDC/SHORELINES at about 1am today 13th September 2016.
“The Niger Delta is not a conquered territory and our people have never succumbed to intimidation before, rather we match force with the oppressor’s brutality.
“The Nigerian government should already know that the people of this part are not fools, who will not be able to see when they are being treated with disdain.”
