Boyloaf said there is
nothing like Niger-Delta Avengers instead it should be Niger-Delta NIMASA – He
opined that, they are criminals running away from justice and instead set to
cause havoc and distract the government from prosecuting them The former militant,
Victor-Ben Ebikamobowei has condemned the actions of the Niger Delta Avengers.
Victor Ben popularly known as Boyloaf was a commander of the Movement for the
Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND). In a chat with NAIJ.com, he said that
the group should be addressed as the Niger-Delta NIMASA and not the Avengers.
“There is nothing like Niger Delta avengers, we know NIMASA avengers there is
nothing like the Niger Delta avengers. He said they are a group of criminals
running away from facing disciplinary actions for several offences committed
during the Goodluck Jonathan-led administration. “They are just a few group of
people that are supposed to face what they did and they decided to convert it
to struggle.
However, Boyloaf accused
them of plans to distract the government from getting prosecuted for their
crimes. “There is nothing like the Niger Delta avengers, it is NIMASA, they
want to distract government from the things they have done, do not pay any
attention to them. “Everybody that committed should face his sin and should not
convert it to struggle. However, Boyloaf fingered Government Ekpemupolo also
known as Tompolo as the leader of the ongoing crisis in the Niger-Delta.
“Tompolo is in the bush, he is no more on the street so he should remain there.
Somebody cannot commit sin and hide, he should face the sin and not convert it
to avenger. “Is it not business everyone did with him? So they handled The
Nigerian Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA)
themselves as their
own personal company, they should go and give account for what they did. Is he
bigger than Nigeria? “Afterall they called many people and they gave account,
so he should go. Why is his own so different? Whenever government attack, they
will convert it to struggle. Meanwhile the group recently emerged and go by the
name Niger-Delta Avengers. These group have been bombing up all the pipelines
that belong to the oil companies in the south-southern part of the nation. In
related news, Justice Rita Ofili-Ajumogobia of a Lagos Federal High Court has

Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA), Mr Raymond Omatseye, to five years
imprisonment for contract scam of N1.5billion. Omatseye was charged before the
court by anti-graft agency, the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC)
on offences bordering on contract splitting and bid rigging to the tune of

Meanwhile, In a series
of tweets, the militants revealed that they blew up another oil pipeline
belonging to the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) on Thursday,
May 26, which they claimed was heavily guarded by the Nigerian military. The
