Suspected members of the Niger Delta Avengers on Wednesday blew up three Chevron Nigeria Limited, CNL, manifolds in Digbolo, near Dibi in Warri North Local Government of Delta State.
According reports late on Wednesday, the incident occurred at about 11.00 pm.
Claiming responsibility for the attack, the Avengers said: “Between the hours of 10:50pm to 11:10 pm, our (Niger Delta Avengers) strike team blew up Chevron manifolds.”
This is contained in a statement signed by its spokesperson, Mudoch Agbinibo, while wishing Muslims a happy Eid-il-fitri celebration, said: “The manifolds are RMP 22, 23 and 24.”
Meanwhile, the group denied carrying out any attack on the NNPC pipeline in Eleme, Rivers State, which was reported through a phony Facebook account of a Niger Delta Avengers.
Warning the public that it is shutting down all its social media accounts, the group said: “Niger delta Avengers is not out to mislead the public, as a result, we are closing our entire social network accounts.
“This Facebook Account/page is an impostor page that was open by fraudster to deceive the general public,” adding: “We warn any group that wants to do anything to go about their activities without tagging us (Niger Delta Avengers).
“Instead do your activities and claim responsibility. Niger Delta Avengers is not out to mislead the public as a result we are closing all our Social network accounts and will be using our websites to pass information to the general public.” Click to signup for FREE news updates, latest information and hottest gists everyday
