MEND Speaks of Declaration of War!-UPDATE on Chevron Pipeline Attack

June 20, 2008
Heeding the MEND call to sabotage oil installations in oil producing communities, a group of angry youths have contacted us giving details of their involvement in the sabotage of the Chevron Abiteye-Olero crude pipeline.
  
The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta wishes to commend these patriotic youths who we are now empowering with more powerful explosives and new techniques to destroy additional pipelines inside Delta state. 
  
The government still has time to save face by releasing Henry Okah to partake in a genuine peace process before Nigeria's oil export reaches zero. 
  
Yar'Adua should not be deceived by the criminals within the armed forces who are pushing him to enter into a fight for their own selfish interest as we don't see how the military can emerge victorious in guerrilla warfare and tactics.
  
For decades we have been deceived and exploited by the criminal Nigeria state. To those youths who are willing to fight for freedom, MEND welcomes you.
  

The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) considers the empty threat made by an illegal commander-in-chief of an inept armed forces of Nigeria as a joke.
  
For underrating our capabilities, the military has been ridiculed world wide after the attack on Bonga. If they want to further expose their weaknesses, then we challenge them to launch an attack on any of our positions.
  
An attack on any militant position is tantamount to a declaration of oil war. The type of war they are expecting is far from what we plan to engage in.
  
In order to avoid being caught in a cross fire, we are asking all expatriate oil workers to vacate oil facilities and living quarters in the Niger Delta while we settle our score with an insincere Federal government.
  
 We call on all patriotic youths in the region to sabotage oil facilities in your communities while those willing to be trained to fight are welcome in our training camps. Any community close to MEND camps that harbours security operatives or spies does so at thier risk and such traitors will be punished.  
  
 
  
Long live the Niger Delta!
