Fighters with the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) raise their riffles to celebrate news of a successful operation by their colleagues against the Nigerian army in the Niger Delta on September 17, 2008. MEND has declared a full-scale "oil war" against the Nigerian authorities in response to attacks by the Nigerian military launched against the militants. "Our target is to crumble the oil installations in order to force the government to a round table to solve the problem once and for all", said Boy Loaf, leader of the militants.

The new militant group Niger Delta Avengers (NDA) has said that ‘something big is about to happen” which will “shock the whole world”.

This is coming after the group blew up the Nigerian National petroleum Corporation (NNPC)’s gas and crude trunkline close to Warri which according to them was heavily guarded by the military.

The group made the statement in a series of tweets:

The militant sect also announced that it has blown up anpother oil installation belonging to Agip and Shell

The NDA had also tweeted that what they needed was a sovereign state, and not pipeline contracts.
