Now the truth has come out, deal with it.

We all know this truth
Re: Oil Bunkering Led To Okuama Killing Of 17 Soldiers by Joshcoli(m): 10:59am On Apr 16
In summary, the conflict in the Niger Delta involving the killing of 17 soldiers stems from a feud between illegal oil bunkers, notably Endurance Okodeh alias Amangbein, and a powerful cartel led by ex-militant leader Government Ekpemukpolo alias Tompolo. The dispute is intertwined with a land conflict between Okuama and Okoloba communities, exacerbated by the alleged involvement of ex-NIMASA boss Patrick Akpobolokemi, who is accused of building a mansion on disputed land.

The illegal oil cartel, comprising influential individuals including top military operators, politicians, and businessmen, orchestrates oil theft from major pipelines with insider assistance, causing significant damage to the economy. Despite government efforts, the cartel continues to operate with impunity, shielded by connections and corrupt practices.

The involvement of Tompolo's private security company, Tantita, in supplying a speed boat used by the slain soldiers raises questions about his connection to the incident. However, Tompolo has remained silent on the matter, leaving speculation about his involvement. Meanwhile, activists criticize government ineffectiveness in tackling oil theft, attributing the persistence of the issue to the powerful cartel's operations and protection.

Overall, the conflict underscores the complex web of interests and corruption fueling illegal oil activities in the Niger Delta, posing challenges to security and economic stability in the region.

But Okuama community insisted that the soldiers stormed the community, accusing them of being in possession of one Anthony Aboh, whose lifeless body has since been recovered floating in Forcado River near Ayakoroma community.

Sources said the lifeless body of Anthony Aboh was recovered floating on River Forcados close to the Ayakoromo community in Delta state. One of the sources in Okoloba said, “We found the lifeless body of Mr. Anthony Aboh floating on River Forcados near Ayakoromo community.”

COMRADES, let's call a spade a spade, sometimes some of these security agencies collude with those oil bunkerers in the creeks to do the unholy act

Not some, but all the security agencies from the NA to the NN, the NPF, the Politicians and the Militant are the real bunkerers

I read the entire writeup.

No substance in it. E no get head. E no get tail.

Just connotations and pieces of jargons.

Totally agree with you.

The writer kept repeating the same thing to make the write-up longer. Besides, the article said nothing new.

Something for the editor to know you are still in the media outfit.

You have just spoken the real fact and reality...

When the government is really ready, it knows what to do......



jchioma:
The illegal oil cartel in the Niger Delta comprises influential Nigerians and foreigners, including top military operators, government officials, highly-placed and retired oil industry players, politicians and business persons, and they are the financiers of oil bunkering syndicates, which over the years have plunged the country’s economy in the abyss of decline. There will be no end to this racket till end of time. The soldiers were mere collateral damage in the spill over of different interests fighting for resources in the Niger Delta. .

A feud between an illegal oil bunker, Endurance Okodeh alias Amangbein and a sophisticated cartel of powerful illegal oil bunkers led to the killing of 17 soldiers in the Okuama community in Ughelli South LGA of Delta, investigations revealed.

Only foools, the ignoramuses wouldn't know this then.

The deceivers knew the truth but they had to do their job so they would be able to put food on their tables.

I didn't even blinked an eye when the incident happened then.

Who doesn't know how to hide meat at the corner of the mouth and pretend as if nothing is there.

For now, People should keep on deceiving themselves. Things will start working out when people are ready to face the reality and make things work.

Nigeria is a den of criminals! The lunatics have taken over and are now running the asylum! shocked

Since 1970, there's been this talk of us wanting to develop and attain uhuru. 54 years down the line, we're still hoping, analysing and blowing big useless grammar while the countries you mentioned are leaving us for dust!

The army have been burning villages in ND when their personnel get killed doing illegal oil bunkering but no one says anything. under the approval of a sitting governor, they went house-to-house in obigbo killing & abducting innocent igbo people but no one said anything except the yorubas were happy while journalists were barred. Now the same yorubas instigated the military to go cleanse the village simply because they hate other southern tribes. You see when a child is crying & pointing in a direction it would be wise to investigate the direction he's pointing. NigerDelta instead of fighting yourself look at where the igbo have been crying & pointing that's where your problem is coming from

How are they able to surround the military and kill them without the military putting up resistance no matter how difficult?
And why would they attend such meeting without observing security protocols which involves having intel on possible outcomes of their going there and make arrangements for any eventuality?
The man that built the house that caused the whole thing was even the one who invited this military personnel that was killed, why haven't the military invite him for some answers?
Our soldiers sometimes don't get things right, but it's only a small segment, but then I hate to see people kill soldiers. It's so sad.
