Militants Bomb Agip Pipeline In Imo by zik4ever: 10:05am On Sep 01, 2016
Three months after it attacked its first target, Niger Delta Red Squad (RDRS), the new militant group operating in the oil bearing communities of Ohaji/Egbema council area of Imo State, said it has blown another facility belonging to Agip Oil Company at Umuonei in Awara community.

The group, which announced the attack in a Facebook posting, warned Agip personnel to keep away from the pipeline, as anybody found within the vicinity would be beheaded.

The group in the post by one General Don Wannie, claimed it struck because it has nothing to show for the operations of Agip, and other oil companies in their community since the creation of Imo State. “We have seen enough marginalisation and it has to be stopped,” he said.

The militant group said it was forced to resume hostility as a result of the continued criminal neglect of the oil-bearing communities by oil companies.
“We are not happy with Agip because they have continued to neglect our communities. Since they have refused to change, we have equally resumed the attack on their pipelines and we are going to blow until they do the right thing. “
The group, which vowed to chase out the oil company from Ohaji/Egbema council area said if the state government failed to compel the oil company to do the right thing, it would have no option but to also attack the offices of the Imo State Oil Producing Area Development Commission (ISOPADEC), the Niger Delta Development Community (NDDC) among others in the state.

It also threatened to attack Governor Rochas Okorocha’s Ogboko village if government deployed any military to their community.

“To Imo State government and their security agencies, we ask you to give our people what rightfully belong to them. You think the best thing you can do is to plan how to deploy security men to our area. No problem… we are assuring you that no security agent will come to any part of Awarra and go without being beheaded,” it threatened.

After it hit a facility operated by Shell Petroleum Development Company in Awarra, Ohaji/Egbema local council area of Imo State in June, the group vowed to inflict maximum damage to oil facilities, if Ohaji/Egbema communities were not given due benefits from their oil resource.

Following the initial attack, the group said: “Oil companies started operation in our community since 1957, but up till date, we have nothing to show as benefit. For Imo State government, we will make sure you make no further gains from Ohaji/Egbema. “Since God’s creation, neither Imo State government nor oil companies have remembered us. We have been neglected and abandoned. No electricity. No tarred roads. No drinking water. No hospital. No youth employment or empowerment. We shall destroy everything in Imo State that was built with our oil money.”

Neither the state government nor the police was willing to confirm the attack, at press time.

One bad thing about this militancy is that when Government is patching the problem from one end, it will be leaking from the other end.

Even though I am not from Osun state, the people of Osun can still sleep quietly without thinking of a polluted environment or living with the fear of soldiers coming to ransack their towns under the guise of looking for pipeline vandals.

Just like I said earlier, it is your town, do whatever you like with it. In fact, this news is a welcome development.

All this bad news coming in everyday makes me wonder what did we do wrong to warant all that is happening in the country. yesterday there was some good news claiming NDA and Boko haram want dialogue and for peace to reign. Today we are waking up to more bombing of pipelines. 9ja which way na.
At this juncture am certain we need divine intervention and we need it real quick. Otherwise this entity called Nigeria would really sink to an all time low in every area.

That's how it goes in a country built on falsehood and inequality. Someone will leave his land and go another persons land to steal their resources. On top of all that, the same person will asking 'what am I doing wrong?'

These guys need to be stopped, and quickly. Like play like play they're spreading their acts of terror through the south; only a matter of time before non-oil producing communities begin to feel the impact. And na innocent people go suffer am pass.
