The
week under review (October 20 – 26, 2013 ) was very eventful. Several
well-heads, feeder pipe lines were damaged by ‘Hurricane Exodus’ in Bayelsa,
Rivers and Delta States of Nigeria .
The
Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) which we earlier infiltrated
with the full recruitment of a high level agent resulted in the successful
sabotage from within on October 22, 2013 . Throwing a ‘spanner in the works’
does not require rocket science or commando skills to execute. It only takes a belief
in our cause to make things happen.
The
Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) now has agents inside
every oil company.
In
neighbouring Rivers State , on that same day the Warri Refinery was sabotaged,
a Joint Task Force (JTF) escort gun boat was engaged in a shootout in the
Andoni Local Government area. Contrary to the version given by the Nigerian
Army spokesman, the soldiers were not ambushed but confronted and the attackers
were not armed robbers but MEND fighters. The one-sided skirmish ended with the
killings of three (3) soldiers and a policeman.
In
Brass, Bayelsa State, another boat belonging to the Joint Task Force (JTF) was
attacked by another MEND team on the same day the two (2) American sailors,
both of whom are psychologically and physically in good health, were abducted.
All the security operatives were killed and their weapons collected. This
incident has been conveniently concealed by the JTF.
The
sister of Mr Oronto Douglas, Special Advisor to President Goodluck Jonathan on
Research and Strategy was released unharmed as we promised. She however had
developed high blood pressure and malaria during her captivity. Contrary to the
claim the family made in a press statement that no ransom was paid, The
Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) can authoritatively
confirm that the sum of 200,000 US Dollars was paid as ransom.
Some
so-called ex-militants and jobless youths who have sold their birth rights for
handouts were again paid to declare that militancy ended in 2009. As they
continue to delude themselves, display their ignorance and irrelevance, the
region, as can be seen by the world is in turmoil that can no longer be hidden.
We dare the so-called ex-generals to come out from their hiding in Abuja into
the creeks to restore order. Also the Niger Delta Amnesty office in the
Presidency, issued a contradictory statement that MEND only exists on
cyberspace. You may recall that this same office made a public appeal to MEND
to refrain from our threat to attack mosques in retaliation to Boko Haram’s
attacks on churches. They also made a private appeal for the Chevron Tank Farm
in Escravos to be spared from mortar attacks which were scheduled for October
01, 2013 .
In
the early hours of Wednesday, October 23, 2013 , an armed auxiliary outfit
(referred by the authorities as pirates), attacked a US flagged oil supply
vessel and singled out the two (2) Americans on board. This action was also to
show their disdain and content for an on-going Joint Naval Exercise with
foreign Navies in the Delta Region. We have informed their abductors that Mr
Henry Okah would have wanted the men released as soon as possible.
As
hurricanes are an art of God, we believe the successes been recorded so far by
‘Hurricane Exodus’, is ordained by God.
