Tension is mounting in the Niger Delta as the militant group, Niger Delta Rescue Movement (NDRM), has issued a stern warning of imminent attacks on oil installations in the region.
In a statement released on Tuesday, the group condemned the alleged seizure of funds due to Rivers State, vowing to disrupt oil production if the issue is not resolved.
“We will not stand by while the economic lifeline of our people is strangled. Any attempt to starve Rivers State of its rightful allocation will be met with strong resistance,” the group’s spokesperson declared.
The warning has sparked fresh concerns over the security of critical oil infrastructure, with industry stakeholders calling for urgent dialogue to avert a crisis.
Government authorities and security agencies have yet to respond to the latest threat, but sources indicate that discussions may be underway to defuse tensions.
With the Niger Delta’s history of militant activity, the threat by NDRM could have significant implications for oil production and national revenue if not swiftly addressed.
