A Shell facility located at Obiakpu-Egbema in Ohaji/Egbema Local Government Area of Imo State has been set ablaze by people suspected to be gunmen.

The incident occurred late Friday when the hoodlums stormed the place and set the facility ablaze. The inferno destroyed both oil pipes that supply oil to other locations and other equipment.

The destruction attracted the attention of the Special Adviser to the Governor of Imo State on Oil and Gas, Hon. Goodluck Nanah Opia, who visited the scene in the company of officials of Nigeria Petroleum Development Company, (NDP), and Fire Service personnel.

The former Speaker, Imo State House of Assembly and former House of Representatives member, who represented Ohaji/Egbema, Oguta and Oru West Federal Constituency expressed regret over the destruction of the facilities by hoodlums.

While assuring that he would look into the matter, Opia called on the Shell Company to fix the place back.

Meanwhile, the leader of the Fire Service team from the NPDC who refused to give his name blamed the attack on bunkering activities.

The Fire Service team who visited the facilities succeeded in containing the conflagration to a very moderate magnitude before leaving.

When contacted, the Imo State Police Command Public Relations Officer SP Elkana Bala, denied knowledge of the incident.

I thought you guys always said that igboland produces no oil really. Just a cup of oil. Who are the ones laying all these pipelines to steal oil from igboland then?

To brag about the fact that you have oil is your primary concern, not terrorists destroying your oil infrastructure, multinational investment and your economic future.

You people are the most mentally dubious, backward and upside-down thinking people under the sun..

owobokiri:

Lol,
Where are the terrorists?
Busy body!
Wait for me to complain about "the terrorists" first before you start crying "I warned you"..
Oil money that is being used to build Lagos and Abuja while Onitsha and Aba wallow in penury.. How's anybody disturbing those realities a terrorist to me?
They're terrorizing Unity Beggars like you not me...

plaindealer:




Oh, I forgot, they are terrorists and killers named unknown gunmen.

So, instead of developing Onitsha and Abia with your own oil money, you prefer to burn and destroy your own oil infrastructure and the source of your own oil money?

I think there's madness and crazy potion in the water that you people drink in the SE because this is not normal and sane thinking or mentality.

owobokiri:

Don't worry! Mr Winner Takes All
The so-called "terrorists" are working hard to help you continue the development of Ogbomosho and Kano with receipts from your bountiful cocoa and groundnut sells.. Eyes go soon clear una..

Oil in South-East

That 10,000 sulphur riddled barrels you have is really freaking you. Those who have the sustainable quality and quantity dont even brag.


Please dont be mentioning oil and gas when people talk about oil and gas. Cos Nasarawa and Katsina will also lay claims to having oil and gas based on your standards.

BombAttack:



So why are you in severe pain then?

Did they blow up your pot of soup?

SangoOlukosoOba:


What has pains got to do with me. My lots will still always be the first priority even if you blow everything up!

You think you are doing someone I pity you! You have no idea about how it trickles. Hunger will explain to you!

BombAttack:


Igbos don't depend on government for any single thing

They are self made, they are not almajiri like you

Go and tell your darling daddy to release the 200 school children your boys kidnap in Niger state.

I am not in the class of people you should tell that.

Charity begins at home! Your region cannot even boast of a city and you will be online chest beating . Please dont tell me about Aba, Awka, Owerri or Onitsha, those are glorified towns called cities.

And you come online to be screaming that you dont depend on anything! What now do you the depend on? The weeds you call vegetables on substandard or adulterated products that cannot even pass a standard test in Afghanistan

Same you guys were boasting about a newly completed cargo airport, only for us to completed cement depot.

Please spare those self sufficient and self made tales. You have all that and lots fleeing to the West and North on daily basis. The most dispersed ethnic group. Why dont you stay back in the village and be self sufficient
