Rivers Crisis: Niger Delta militant group threatens to shut down oil installations if Tinubu fails to caution FCT Minister, Nyesom

By our correspondent

A Niger Delta militia group, the Niger Delta Development Force, has threatened to shut down oil installations in the Niger Delta region, if President Bola Tinubu fails to caution the the FCT Minister, Nyesom Wike, over alleged attempts to undermine the administration of Governor Siminalayi Fubara of Rivers State.

The group in a statement signed on Sunday by its spokesman, Justin Alabraba, expressed anger over an alleged plan by Wike to use a friendly judge to secure a ruling in his favour, which would stop local government allocations to the state on Monday.

The statement added, “Our members will not hesitate to shut down oil installations if any judge in Abuja issues a pronouncement that financially incapacitates local governments in Rivers State, preventing them from fulfilling their duty to the people.
