Tension mounts at Nigeria's Defense HQ as Niger Delta Avengers deny attacking military houseboat in Egwa 1. Suggests another deadly militant group is on the prowl |
There is palpable apprehension in the corridors of the Nigerian Defence Headquarters as Niger Delta Avengers deny attacking a military houseboat and killing all soldiers and civilians onboard.
In a tweet sent out in the early hours of today, the Avengers stated that they did not attack the military houseboat.
WE didn't attack any Military houseboat http://www.nigerdeltaavengers.com/2016/06/we-didnt-attack-any-military-
This denial is sending fear down the spine of soldiers currently in operation in the Niger Delta as it suggests that even a deadlier militant group is on the prowl in the Niger Delta hunting Nigerian soldiers.
Just In: Militants attack military houseboat in Egwa 1. Kill all soldiers onboard and seven Chevron workers
The Niger Delta Avengers attacks have so far focused on facilities and no death has been attributed to them.
Yesterday, the Joint Niger Delta Liberation Force in a press statement threaten to launch missile attacks on Nigerian military aircrafts.
This suggest that the battle is escalating by the day and may soon spiral out of contro.
