The Nigerian Navy said it has arrested a suspected member of the Niger Delta Avengers. This is contained in a statement by its Director of Information,
Commodore Christian Ezekobe, and made available to newsmen in Abuja.
From
the statement, the suspect who was picked up on July 11, 2016, at about
11am, is believed to be a top logistics supplier to the group which had
claimed responsibility for attacks on NNPC, Chevron pipelines in the
region.
“The arrest was made following a confessional statement obtained from an earlier arrested suspect who gave details of the involvement of other collaborators in the attacks.
Preliminary investigations also revealed that the suspect recently supplied 10 batteries, five large coils of wire and other materials purportedly used for the attacks.”
