Following the increased attack on Petroleum facilities by the Niger Delta Avengers, the Federal Government convened a meeting on Wednesday to find a possible agreement between both parties.
However, the militant group described the proceedings of the Niger Delta Stakeholders meeting as nothing but an insult to the people of the Niger delta region.
The group said: “The Niger Delta stakeholders meeting is an insult to the people of the Niger Delta. What we need is a sovereign state, not pipeline contracts.
“To the International Oil Companies, IOCs and the Nigeria military, watch out, something big is about to happen and it would shock the whole world,”
In furtherance to the threat, the Avengers took to their social media page on Twitter in the early hours of today to write: “At 11:45PM on Thursday, @Niger Delta Avengers blew up another NNPC Gas and Crude trunkline close to Warri. Pipeline that was heavily guarded by the military.”
