Niger Delta Avengers Blow Up Chevron's Escravos Tank Farm Main Electricity Pipeline

A new armed militant group in Nigeria's Niger Delta, "The Niger Delta Avengers" today destroyed the main pipeline supplying gas that provides electricity to the Escravos tank farm in Delta state owned by Chevron. In a tweet sent from its account on Twitter, the group said the latest action was carried out after Chevron ignored its May 12 warning not to fix a major crude pipeline blown up by the group early in the month. The group did not disclose if the latest attack led to human casualties.
