The militant group, Niger Delta Avengers (NDA) has decided to close down all its social media accounts to avoid the undue advantage being taken by impostors.

Before the decision to shut down its social media pages, the Avengers had suffered a cyber blow on Monday when micro-blogging site, Twitter suspended its @NDAvengers account.

The page was taken down as a result of a breach of policy by the users.

In a statement released by the Avengers spokesperson, Mudoch Agbinibo, the militant group uncovered a fake Facebook account posing as the Avengers.

The group warned against using its name and struggle for fraudulent purposes.

It said, the Facebook account “is an impostor page that was open by fraudster to deceive the  general public.

“We warning  any group that wants to do anything should go about their activities without tagging us (Niger Delta Avengers) instead do your activities and claim responsibility.”

The group also denied responsibility for the recent attack carried on the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation pipeline in Eleme.

“The NNPC pipeline in Eleme blowing that was posted by this Facebook account yesterday wasn’t carried out by Niger Delta Avengers.”
