Earlier, the Avengers had warned the International Oil Companies (IOCs) never to commence any repair work on their facilities that were bombed, stating that failure to adhere to the warning would spell doom for the IOCs.

“This action is to further warn all IOCs’ that when we warn that there should be no repairs pending negotiation/dialogue with the people of the Niger Delta, it means there should be no repairs”.

The group has also stated that any clandestine move to derail by relevant authorities to allow the free flow of oil would disrupt the long awaited dialogue, “Any attempt to use dialogue to distract us so as to allow the free flow of our oil will halt the dialogue process”.
