A
group identified as Urhobo Gbagbako, has blown up the NPDC Oil pipelines
at Ighrenene, Afiesere and Ekiugbo communities in Delta State. In an email
sent to reporters claiming responsibility for the bombing which occurred
yesterday April 2nd, the spokesperson of the group, Priest Omodjuvwu, said the group, which consist of
ex-militants, men, women and children of Urhobo origin, decided to blow up the
oil pipeline following the continued neglect of the Urhobo militants in the pipelines protection contracts offered to
ex-militants from other ethnic groups.
"We have
now resumed attack on the NPDC pipeline facilities on a massive scale, which
scale of bombings shall be unprecedented,” the email read.
NB: When will
this madness stop? It is high time the elders in Urhobo land call all these criminals to order, things cannot continue like this!!!
