Shells Orubiri Flow Station Destroyed-MEND

September 15, 2008
About 2200 Hrs on Tuesday, September 16, 2008, fighters from the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) and the Niger Delta Volunteer Force (NDVF) in a new alliance attacked and destroyed the Orubiri flow station operated by the Shell Petroleum Development Company in Rivers state of Nigeria.
 
All the soldiers on guard were killed and provided more weapons for the campaign. Their houseboat was equally destroyed.
 
Every group in the region have dropped their differences and come together to fight a common enemy who has used the instrument of state and the tactics of divide and rule to oppress the region for five decades.
 
Soldiers and oil workers are advised to abandon all oil facilities including the off shore rigs of Bonga and Agbami as we want to minimize casualties before Hurricane Barbarossa arrives.
 
Those who choose unwisely to remain will face the consequences of their decisions and should learn from their colleagues in the United States who evacuated ahead of Hurricanes Gustav and Ike. A word is enough for the wise.
 
If the Nigerian military is confident of its capabilities, let them be bold to take journalists and photographers to Orubiri to assess by themselves the aftermath of Barbarossa.  We will henceforth begin documenting our raids by providing digital cameras and camcorders for each fighting unit.
 
After Rivers, the hurricane will be heading to the neighboring states in the Niger Delta. The people of Rivers state should hold the governor Mr Rotimi Amaechi accountable for allowing the state to be the first to be visited. He should resign and a state of emergency declared in Rivers state.
