A militant group, the Niger Delta Greenland Justice Mandate (NDGJM), has said it destroyed the Ogor-Oteri major delivery line jointly operated by the Nigerian Petroleum Development Company (NPDC) and Shoreline in Delta State.
This is coming ahead of the actual commencement of a peace deal between armed agitators in the Niger Delta and the Federal Government to end the incessant bombings of oil facilities in the region.
But a senior manager at NPDC said the company was unaware of the destruction of the pipeline. He said the firm would investigate the development and give feedback.
He stated that the raid was part of the field training exercise on the fourth day of the ongoing operation nicknamed, ‘Operation Crocodile Smile’ in the Niger Delta.
Usman said the troops recovered two generators, one locally made double barrel gun, one dane gun, three live cartridges and two pumping machines.
Others items recovered include: one 32 inches LG television, one Kenwood amplifier and 4 X 50 litres of liquid suspected to be crude oil at Ayakoromo junction.
