The Niger Delta Avengers apparently are not the only group angry at President Muhammadu Buhari and threatening to destroy pipelines and shut down Niger Delta operations.

A new group, Egbesu Mightier Fraternity yesterday issued a 2-weeks ultimatum to the Federal Government to release leader of the Indigenous People of Biafra, Nnamdi Kanu and embattled former National Security Adviser, Sambo Dasuki or else they would be forced to strike.

In a statement signed by Captain Agbaka Doctor, the group’s spokesperson titled, ‘Release Nnamdi Kanu and Colonel Sambo Dasuki Now or else…. Operation Shut Down Oil and Gas in Niger Delta Region Will Start’, the group warned that severe consequences would follow the Federal Government’s refusal to assent to their request.

“We, the Egbesu Mightier Fraternity is warning the Federal Government of Nigeria to release the IPOB leader and the former National Security Adviser, Colonel Sambo Dasuki (rtd) in the next two weeks unconditionally or they will regret not listening to us,” the statement said.

“The Federal Government is also directed to ask the military to leave Gbaramatu Kingdom within the same period or else we are going to shut down every oil and gas activity in the region. Tompolo is not the problem of Nigeria or behind the problem in Niger Delta but misrule and high handedness of the Federal Government and its officials.

“Tompolo is not responsible for the bombing of oil and gas pipelines in the region. Egbesu Mightier Fraternity is part of the bombings. We are responsible. Niger Delta Avengers is a branch of the struggle and nobody should take us for granted or we will do more.”
