We Do Not Recognise Any Ceasefire Agreement, New Militant Group Warns

Recall that the Niger Delta Avengers had agreed stop the hostilities in the Niger Delta region, adding that they were ready for negotiations with the Federal Government.

But the NDS in a statement by one General Igbede N. Igbede, on Monday, disclosed that not all pipeline attacks were carried out by Avengers, adding that they will continue their attacks until oil companies vacate the region.

The group further swore that it will not be part of any negotiation with the Federal Government and its agents.

“We will not recognise any ceasefire agreement and we are ready to sustain the struggle until all oil firms in Niger Delta abandon the region. The bombings and destruction of oil installations currently going on in Niger Delta will be nothing compared to what will come, if the Federal Government does not include recognised Niger Delta leaders in the current negotiations.

“It is not true that all the bombings are done by the Niger Delta Avengers, but we have allowed them to claim responsibility to allow for cohesion in the struggle. But it is obvious that they are compromised, especially given their choice of representatives,” it said.
