Breaking: Niger Delta Militants Blow up Another Oil Facility in Delta State 

Persistent Niger Delta militants, Niger Delta Greenland Justice Mandate, NDGJM, have reportedly attacked another major crude oil delivery line belonging to the Nigerian Petroleum Development Company in Delta State.

 The incident occurred on Sunday at about 11: 30pm around Ekuigbo, Ughelli North Local Government Area of the state.

 Spokesman of the militant group, Aldo Agbalaja, claimed responsibility for the attack in a statement issued on Monday.

It described as “waste of resources” the use of military men to guard oil and facilities in the region, adding such would never yield any positive result.

 Details later…
