This was contained in a statement on the website of the militants on Sunday by its spokesperson, Brig.Gen Moduch Agbinibo, where it was published that the army has continued to use their sleeper’s agents to blind fold Nigerians and indeed the Mohammadu Buhari-led government.

“We made it clear that the Nigeria Military is using sleepers’ agents to track or checkmate the activities and operation of the Niger delta avengers. But the more they try the more they run into crisis with their employed sleeper agents. Stanley Tonghan and Felix Miyenminiye that were arrested and paraded by the Nigeria Navy Delta are few of the sleeper agents working for Nigeria Military in conjunction with one Ayiri Emani and Michael Johnny”.

“The Suspects (Tonghan and Felix Miyenminiye) was paid 5 Million Naira to give Nigeria military intelligent on the activities of NDA. On failing to deliver, the suspects were arrested and tagged NDA members. What a shame?

The group disowned the duo of Tonghan and Miyenminiye saying, they are “not member of NDA, we don’t know or have any connection with them”.

While bombarding the Navy Commanding Officer, Commodore Joseph Dzune, for misleading the President, the Avengers said, “The Navy Commanding Office NNS Delta, Warri (Commodore Joseph Dzunve) is trying to impress his Boss in Abuja by arresting sleeper agents recruited by his predecessor”.

The militants lamented that the army has nick named any criminal arrested as NDA member, disclosing that “Since we (NDA) started the struggle none of our operatives has been arrested. All those in detention in the name of NDA are not part of NDA the world should know this”.

While threatening to cause more havoc to the military, the said, “Nigeria military has not seen embarrassment. NDA will keep embarrassing you because the only thing you are good at doing in the Niger Delta region is arrest and killing of innocent citizens of the Niger Delta in the name of looking for NDA and illegal bunkering”.

The Avengers challenged the military thus: “If the Nigeria military is serious about arresting NDA let them come to the creeks of the Niger Delta. That is where we dwell not the city. If I, Brig.Gen Moduch Agbinibo, was the Commanding Officer NNS Delta, Commodore Joseph Dzunve, and commander of the so-called Operation Delta Safe, Rear Admiral Joseph Okojie, I would have been in the creeks instead of sitting at the comfort of my air-conditioned office”, the Avengers mocked.

Addressing elders of the region, they said, “To the elders of the Niger Delta, hope it clear to you our elders that the Buhari led government is not reliable, reasonable, responsible and not ready to dialogue. Can you tell the world the government official you been dialoguing with? Is it the President? Or is there any committee that is set up for it? We respect you our elders, as such stop behaving, as the Niger Delta is a seized region and stop acting like you are begging the government for dialogue. The worse the government will do is to bombard our villages and towns in the name of looking for NDA. So our elders should trend carefully with the Nigeria government”.

“The reason behind military harassment of towns and villages in the Niger Delta is because NDA have not confronted the Nigeria military in battle. We are not scared in confronting you. The creeks of the Niger Delta belong to us so defeating the Nigeria military is not hard for us. We have made it clear in many occasions that our business is to cripple the Nigeria economy not to kill military. The Nigeria military should not we (NDA) avoiding them is a sign of weakness”.
