The group asserted: “From our analysis above,
90 per cent of oil blocs are allocated to
individuals from northern Nigeria and some
confused elements from the region are calling
the Niger Delta Avengers names, some are
calling us criminals.”
“Our question to these groups of individuals
calling us names is: where were you when all
these atrocities were happening to the people
of the Niger Delta?
On the rumour that oil has been discovered in
the North East it, Niger Delta Avengers said:
“How will you feel if this found oil is been
managed by Niger Deltans. We are very sure
the Niger Deltans will not even have two per
cent oil bloc if oil is really found in the
Northeast. If you did not shut down, we will
shut your stations permanently for you.”
On the strikes of the group, which have
devastated oil and gas operations of major oil
companies in the region and practically
crippled crude oil production, it said: “From
the high command of the Niger Delta Avengers,
we congratulate all the strike teams of the
Avengers. Without taking any innocent life or
that of the Nigeria military, we were able to
shut down 50 per cent of crude production.”
“We have been seeing a lot on the media
about us. Some are asking, “Who are you
avenging?” some calling us empty heads, ex-
agitators have been condemning us on daily
basis. Our criticizer from other part of the
country, we do not have anything to tell you
because you clearly do not know how life is in
the region.
“To our criticizers from the region, we want you
to know you are all cowards and afraid to
stand for your people.
“To ex-agitators of the likes of Tompolo, We
know why you people are after us. Our
agitation is more civilized than yours, the Niger
Delta Avengers is more concerned with people
of Niger Delta unlike you (ex-agitations) that
were into kidnapping, killing of Nigeria
soldiers, sea piracy, vessel and tanker
hijacking. However, we were able to carry out
all our operations without killing a fly. We have
sophisticated arms far better than what you use
to have during your kidnapping days,” it
asserted.
