By Augustine Adah

Militants in the Niger Delta area, have threatened to disrupt oil production in the region if the Federal Government goes ahead with the plan to tansfer the supervision of Niger Delta Development Commission, NDDC, to the office of the Secretary to the Government of the Federation.  The supervision of NDDC has been with the ministry of Niger Delta Affairs.

The Reformed Niger Delta Avengers, RNDA, and coalition of nine militant groups gave the warning in a statement by the leader, self-styled “General” Johnmark Ezonbi, aka Obama.

They said, “It has come to our notice that there was a meeting initiated by some power-drunk and self- centered leaders from the region, who have lost control of the affairs of the NDDC. They are collaborating with some top officials in the Presidency to transfer the supervision of the NDDC to the OSGF all in a bid to divert the fund for their personal gains towards 2023.

“We sternly warn those behind this evil plot to retrace their steps or live to regret their actions as they will not be spared in the onslaught christened ‘Final Battle to Rescue NDDC from the Hawks, Blood for Oil’,” 

The group expressed regret that after they entered into an agreement to stop violence in the region with the present administration of President Muhammadu Buhari, the only thing they got was for development to be strangulated in the region.
