Operatives of the Nigerian Navy Ship
(NNS Delta) Warri have recorded a major breakthrough in curtailing
bombing of oil facilities with the arrest of two active members of the
Niger Delta Avengers (NDA).
The two suspects, Felix Miyenminiya, 53,
and Stanley Jongha, 35, were arrested last Thursday in Sapele by the
Navy in conjunction with other security agencies after intensive
surveillance on the suspects.
Parading them at NNS Delta, Warri, the
Commander, Commodore Joseph Dzunye, disclosed that the suspects were
behind attacks of some Chevron Nigerian Limited (CNL) facilities in the
Warri North Local Government Area of Delta state between the months of
May and July.
Dzunve, who indicated the Navy’s
precision in its arrest of the suspects, said the suspects had provided
useful information that would help in the operations, adding that those
arrested were deeply involved in various forms of crimes, including
pipelines vandalism and sea robberies.
The Navy boss said the suspects were
arrested last week following intelligence tip-offs, adding that they
were arrested within the Sapele general area.
He disclosed the two suspects; Stanley
Toghan and Felix Miyenminiye, were not the only ones involved in the
attacks on the facilities in the Warri North area, assuring that others
who were still at large would soon be apprehended.
“Today, I am pleased to inform you that
after persistent efforts, the Nigerian Navy Ship Delta, being part of
the maritime component of the Operation Delta Safe, has arrested two
suspects responsible for the attack on Chevron facilities, witnessed
between May and July2016, around Warri North axis of Delta state.
“It is important to mention that the
suspects are also deeply involved in pipelines vandalism and sea robbery
along the waterways in Warri North axis.
“The suspects have provided useful
information and I assure you that the Nigerian Navy and other security
agencies remain committed to apprehending those behind all forms of
criminal activities in the Nigerian maritime domain”, Dzunve said.
To me this is a matter of suspect and i find out that Felix miyenminiya, is innocent, because there was an investigation that took place searching of his house but find nothing; is an a fox allegation so the navy should look into this issue and solve it because he is not a militant now,
