President Muhammadu Buhari has expressed concern over threats by the militant group, the Niger Delta Avengers, to bomb critical oil and gas infrastructures in the country describing it as rather unnecessary.
The reaction is coming after media reports said that the militant group had announced plans to resume attacks on oil facilities with the launch of “operation humble” in the oil-rich region, due to the unjust distribution of crude proceeds to the oil-producing region as well as rising insecurity in the country.
This disclosure is contained in a statement issued by the Special Adviser to the President on Media and Publicity, Mr Femi Adesina, in which he quoted Buhari as saying that all issues raised by the group were already addressed when the president met with the leadership of the Niger Delta and Ijaw National Congress (INC), at the presidential villa on Thursday.
