Niger Delta Avengers, the militant group that has been responsible for many attacks on oil Installations in the Niger-Delta have through their spokesperson, Brig Gen Mudoch Agbinibo, released a statement the group will commence negotiations whenever the Nigerian government shows readiness.
The group also in the statement responded to news that Nobel laureate, Professor Wole Soyinka and other prominent figures might have been named as members of the commitee to dialogue with the FG on behalf of the Niger Delta Avengers, as well as other splinter militants groups in the oil producing zone.
You can read the statement below.
The High Command of the Niger Delta Avengers are bothered again on the insensitivity to the genuine plight of the Niger Delta agitation by every successive government of Nigeria and the present handlers of the APC government. We are amazed that Prof. Wole Soyinka, has been taken on the jugular by enemies of the Niger Delta because of his belief that the government of the day should understand the need to restructuring and listen to the Niger Delta agitation positively. That if, we the NDA have named Prof Wole Soyinka and some incredible names to advise and lead any group is the Lie of The Century! They says, when an handshake goes beyond the elbow it has turned to another thing; amazingly, the handwriting are so clear that our noble laureate name is going the infamous way, as he is being named along as an adviser with some unscrupulous characters as Niger Delta Avengers (NDA) dialogue team with the government of Nigeria. Putting the records straight; the name/names parading as factions of the Niger Delta Avengers are just the figment of some persons protecting their jobs and hell bent on derailing the wheel of progress in the history of Nigeria and the Niger Delta agitation.
