Niger Delta Avengers Agree to Dialogue with FG | See their Conditions

The Niger Delta militant group, Niger Delta Avengers (NDA) have laid down conditions for dialogue with the Federal government in the region.
The group, which claimed responsibility for most of the attacks on oil installations in the region since February said that no repairs should be carried out on any of the damaged facilities until after the dialogue.
Read the statement, signed by its spokesman, Brig.-Gen Mudoch Agbinibobelow:
The high command of the Niger Delta Avengers (NDA) is using this medium to restate that there are no new items to put on the table for dialogue, we only want a genuine attitude and conducive atmosphere that will make us commit to any proposed dialogue and last peace talk. We want the federal government to commit member states of the multi national Oil Corporations to commit independent mediators to this proposed dialogue; we believe that it is only such environment that will engender genuine dialogue that will be aimed at setting up a framework for achieving the short, medium and long term demands of the Niger delta to de-escalating this conflict and bring about a lasting peace.
The NDA high command is restating (its) commitment to attack the interest of oil corporation and international refineries operators that bring in vessels to the Niger Delta territory to buy our oil that every successive government have refused to use and reapply the proceeds towards any development in the region since 1958. If they refuse to heed our advice, (we) will (resort) to sinking two of their mother vessel as an example to others. They should not undertake any repair of pipeline, oil and gas facilities that is damaged or attacked by our forces during this period of “Operation Red Economy” until and/or after the dialogue.
We are using medium to warn and condemn the activities of all brands of social media agitators being peddled around by some politicians to promote their criminal ways in affairs of the Niger Delta. This genuine spirit behind our struggle for the Niger Delta cannot be derailed on the basis of connivance by politician, traditional rulers, settled ex- agitators and criminals moving around to fill their pockets.
The issues of the Niger delta are as old and as new as the days of Pa. Dappa BiriyeMajor Jasper Isaac Adaka Boro, to Ken Saro Wiwa and the government of President Musa Yar’ Adua. We are warning this government of President muhammadu Buhari, not to turn the essence of genuine peace talk and dialogue to political jamboree that is prevailing now where all manner of social media agitators and criminals have (been) sponsored by the job seeking corrupt political class to save faces before the government of the day.
Finally, if need be we may review our earlier stance of not taking lives. We are going to redirect and reactivate all our activities if the government, oil companies and their services firms don’t heed to these modest warnings of not carrying out any repairs works, and suspend the buying of crude oil from our region as we await the right atmosphere that will engender genuine dialogue “We Want a peace with Honour not a Peace of our time”.
