The Joint Niger Delta Liberation Force, a militant group, has threatened to attack the presidential villa in Abuja.
In a statement issued on Monday, the group said it has listed key places in the country for attacks, warning occupants of the listed buildings to “vacate urgently”.
Some of the buildings the group threatened to attack are the police headquarters, defence headquarters, NNPC towers, CBN headquarters, national assembly, military formations across the country, among others.
Vowing to lay the foundation for the breakup of the country, the group said former President Goodluck Jonathan should not be brought into the rebirth of militancy in the Niger Delta.

“The followings occupants of these buildings should as a matter of urgency vacate them immediately IN THEIR OWN INTEREST to save their lives because our fight is not for ANY HUMAN BLOOD but to destroy all those infrastructures that were built with our oil and gas monies in this country. We will make federal government and oil companies to suffer as they have made the people of Niger Delta region suffer over the years,” the statement read.
“We shall fire these Missiles’ simultaneously at the night, as this will enable every Nigerian to see the movement of the MISSILES and equally to believe us of our seriousness attached to the final breakup as predicted by the United States of America (USA).
“We equally advise the diplomatic community to be neutral on this issue as wrong comments against us will be seen as saboteurs. Where they are staying presently will not be affected which is not part of our targeted areas of destruction in the country.”

The militants boasted that the deployment of war arsenal in the region cannot stop them from operating, vowing to embarrass the air force.
They also warned oil companies from repairing destroyed pipelines.
“We shall embarrass the self acclaimed Nigerian Air Force with their recent deployment of fighter aircraft, helicopter gunship and surveillance aircraft when at this digital age, countries are talking about missile development, and they still condescend so low of their present obsolete equipment,” they said.
“Note, we are going to destroy the ones they have deployed to Escravos, Forcados in Delta State; Bonga oil field, Agbami offshore and Brass in Bayelsa; Bony in Rivers; Qua Iboe Terminal in Akwa Ibom State, and Opuekeba in Ondo State if they fails to remove them before time. Our crack team has taken inventory of their equipments. Even the present suffering from a rare ear disease known as Meniere’s disease by President Muhammadu Buhari will not win any sympathy to save our action against the federal government. The name Nigeria as a country will come to an end this week.”

Aso Rock ? Of all places ? Wetin dem dey smoke of recent ? I’m a Niger Deltan too, but this is PURE INSANITY !
This is not supportable. They are choosing to kill people to obtain better use of the resources from their land? Is that moral? As a good person would you not rather suffer to avoid harm to others? In truth, they have other options to achieve the benefits they have worked themselves up to. These people are commiting suicide and costing lives of others unnecessarily.
This peo r just talking about missles non stop that shows they & their backers have been stock pilling with our porous border; all the oil they stole they use the money to stock pile weapon; even saddam & gadafi were intoxicated with all their weaponry but were inventually taking down so will be this criminal millitant.Of all the buildings they listed; the only 2 I would like them to take down is the senate & Reps buildings…
Sadam and gadafi where taken down yes ,but how many people died with them???? Your comment is not enlighten at all pls keep it shut!!! The president have got to negotiate….and comments like yours makes mentally heal ones like those dude to wanna prove themselves…
Where would they get capability to launch guided missiles? I doubt I have heard of non state actors having the capability to missiles. Even Nigerian military does not possess the capability. What they are doing is what is called psychological warfare in war. I lose no sleep over these guys.

This so called Niger delta millitants are bunch of fools and cowards I see no reason why ppl should take them serious.
Crude oil production has dropped considerable that’s why you should take them serious.
They are bunch of jokers….
This is the effect of smoking too much weed!
It’s a pitty they don’t understand the meaning of war, it’s not and can never be between friends,in time of war, everybody answer his father ‘s name. History will only repeat itself like the days of ojukwu
Please for the sake of the innocent people, please forgive our federation and let us join our resources together to built up Nigeria. Buhari maybe the best president in Nigeria but he make a simple mistake that spot out destruction.
Make una no brag oooo beg them well well hmmmmm anyway
4 better feature. Nigerians should not neglect NDA threatening…. dialogue is d best option, cos every where we will suffer especially we d northern part as there is deficiency in agricultural programs….
The Buhari govt failed to capitalise on the window of stability they had in the early days of this govt. politics is also a game of acts. And the theatrics of the ogoni clean up should have been the first action of the Buhari administration in order to consolidate on the stability that Jonathan bequeathed to him. The immediate causes of this renewed agitation are linked to the handling of the Ipob leader and the protests. The unipolar clampdown on corrupt officials including tompolo was also a factor. The way out is 1)to start with the implementation of the confab report by restructuring the federating units along ethnic rather than regional lines.2) removing access to natural resources from the exclusive lists and allowing Niger Delta govts to have exclusive access to some oil blocks.3) expunge Sharia law from the constitution to increase goodwill from the southern people’s of Nigeria.
I think we should allow God to act in this situation Secondly if is the will of God that Nigeria should be divided now let it be without bloodshell an to the Mr president he should obey court order an release IPOB leader mazi Nnamdi Kalu.
Giv mi my tin is not bad
Let the lord have The final say, but yet i am of the oppion that that Nigeria should be divided so as to have peace of mind. Though everybody might not benefit from the gorvt of either Nigeria or Biafra but yet there will be peace. lets us not give up in prayers. Pray also for your president that God should cure him speedily coz we need him
