The new militant group in the Niger Delta that has been wreaking havoc on oil facilities, Niger Delta Avengers, Thursday, blew up the main gas pipeline, which provides electricity to the Escravos tank farm in Delta state.
The pipelines belong to Chevron.
In a tweet sent via its Twitter handle,@NDAvengers, the militant group confirmed that the latest attack on oil facilities was prompted by Chevron’s refusal to fix a major crude pipeline blown up by the group earlier.
