Ex-Soldiers Threaten To Blow Up Pipelines Over Pension Arrears

, Members of the Nigerian Military Pensioners Welfare Association (NMPWA) in the South-South region have threatened to blow up pipelines and disrupt the peace of the area if the Federal Government refuses to commence the payment of the 53 per cent pension arrears owed them for four years now.

In a statement signed by its secretary, Captain Don Pedro, and made available to LEADERSHIP in Port Harcourt, the group said the Federal Government was taking the veterans for a ride.

It said; “We have been trained in the art of warfare, we have knowledge of combat of any sort, and we can blow oil pipelines in the region and cripple the economy of the nation. We want to say that we can be more deadly than Boko Haram, so we should not be taken for granted.“We were told by the Directorate of Military Pensions around April this year that the arrears would be paid as soon as the budget was approved and at the approval of the budget that the money was being prepared in July for payment nothing was heard since then.

“This is the height of inconsistency by a nation that we invested our youths in, if crop of leaders were not around when we fought for the unity of this country, at least some of the senators, traditional rulers and opinion leaders were around then”
