Niger Delta Avengers have announced their return to continue their hostilities against the people and government of Nigeria.
Gatekeepers News reports that the militant group, (Niger Delta Avengers), which wreaked havoc on the region during President Muhammadu Buhari’s first tenure has announced its return to continue its hostilities against the country’s oil assets.
Between 2016 and 2018, the group relatively paralysed the nation’s economy by attacking oil facilities in the region which plunged the country into recession.
The militant group in a statement on Saturday said it has launched ‘Operation Humble’ which aims at crippling the economy as it did in previous times.
The group also pledged to clamp down on politicians who are currently helping the Federal Government of Nigeria “undermine the Niger Delta region”.
The statement added, “It is disheartening that despite being the economic backbone and having resolved to maintain the peaceful environment for the smooth operations of the oil multinationals whose proceeds the country cling unto for economic survival, the Niger Delta and the South-South remain the most underdeveloped, with our needs and interests undermined by the failed Nigerian State”.
