Niger Delta Group Raises Alarm Over Rivers, Bayelsa Militant Meeting in Arogbo


....Plot to Sabotage Federal Government Pipeline Protection Contract


In recent developments, a concerning revelation has surfaced regarding a clandestine gathering in Arogbo, Ondo State, with ominous intentions aimed at undermining the federal government and NNPC's pipeline surveillance and security contract in the Niger Delta region. The meeting, reportedly hosted by a militant figure from the Arogbo community, is purportedly geared towards orchestrating disruptive actions targeting the nation's hydrocarbon assets, stemming from grievances related to exclusion from the pipeline contract.


According to credible sources privy to the situation, the individual identified as Ajube, assumedly a central figure in this scheme, is allegedly gripped by intense frustration stemming from unsuccessful attempts to manipulate and coerce the federal government and NNPC into revising the terms of the pipeline surveillance contract. This planned rendezvous in Arogbo is construed as a final gambit to deceive authorities into reconsidering their stance to favor the dissenting group.


Insights gleaned from a reliable informant closely associated with the meeting's host indicate a heightened state of agitation and determination to disrupt the ongoing pipeline surveillance and protection efforts that have demonstrated effectiveness over the past year. Additionally, recent incidents of attacks on assets belonging to a private security company, coupled with threats to lives in the Ondo River region, are believed to be linked to this nefarious agenda.


In response to this alarming development, a stern admonition is directed towards key security and law enforcement agencies, including the Chief of Defence Staff, the Inspector General of Police, the Directorate of State Security (DSS), and the EFCC. The message underscores the imperative of prioritizing national interests above individual or factional agendas, emphasizing that no entity should be permitted to jeopardize the integrity and stability of the nation's economic assets.


Furthermore, a call to action is articulated, urging the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu to take decisive measures to confront and neutralize criminal elements and economic saboteurs intent on undermining national security and prosperity. Such resolute action is deemed essential in safeguarding the sanctity of critical infrastructure and preserving the socio-economic well-being of the Nigerian populace.


In Summary the emergence of this threat underscores the ongoing challenges facing the Niger Delta region and underscores the importance of robust security measures and proactive measures to counteract subversive activities. Vigilance, collaboration between relevant stakeholders, and decisive action are paramount in upholding the rule of law and protecting the nation's vital interests against internal and external threats.
