The Niger Delta Avengers (NDA), the militant group leading the attacks on oil installations, has blown up pipelines belonging to Chevron and the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC).

Mudoch Agbinibo, spokesman of the group, disclosed this in a brief statement.

“At 10pm Niger Delta Avengers blew up Chevron Well 10 close to Otunana flow station,” he said.

“Other attacks were carried out at 11:15pm. Nigerdelta Avengers blow up NPDC Manifold close to Banta and two PPMC/NNPC crude oil trunk Lines.”

Until Monday when Twitter blocked the account of the group, avengers were for of announcing such attacks on social media.

They resumed hostilities after a two-week ceasefire, which led to an increase in oil production.

Between Friday and Sunday, they damaged five oil pipelines in Delta.

The government could not reach any meaningful deal with the group during the suspension of violence.

Lamenting the frustration of the current administration in its effort to negotiate with the groups, President Muhammadu Buhari reached out to leaders of the ruling All Progressives Congress (APC) to help him pacify the militants.

The group said its aim is to cripple the economy of the nation.

O good King, I fear we may not match them with our army. Surely, they’ll set us back several tonnes of gold coins ere we defeat them. Surely, such victory will be pyrrhic.”
“Speak Cachu son of Ukuh, what would thou do if thou wears my crown?” demanded the King.
“I’ll make peace with my enemy, O good King.”
“O good King, Cachu son of Ukuh spoke true words, and like a patriot,” added Liar son of Momed the Master of Propanda, “We should make peace. And perhaps in so doing, draw them out from the comfort of the shadows into the piercing rays of light, unmasking completely before our men, the faces behind the masks.”
“Brilliant idea, that is. O Lair son of Momed, though art indeed deceitful beyond most men, con is thy trade, and wily is thy gift. Now what bait shall we use to catch these fish from the murky creek?” enthused the King.
“O great King, I merely seek to serve, and make our country great again. O great King, to catch fish in murky waters of the creek, if it pleases you let’s propose to clean the murky waters in the land of Ogoni, long abandoned by several King before you, including King Jonah the Able son of Locki”
“Is that not a hefty price to pay as bait?” demanded the King.
“No, your highness, we’ll pay few shekels and several lip service.”
The King smiled his consent, “Good idea.” Then he looked at Cachu son of Ukuh, “I know you won’t like this Cachu son of Ukuh, sell it nonetheless with Liar son of Momed.
