Nigeria - Ex President Goodluck Jonathan's pact with local
militias over protection of gas pipelines have been terminated just as
some soldiers recently flushed out OPC operatives from a pipe site in
Sagamu, Guardian reports.
One of the beneficiaries of the pipeline job, the Oodua Peoples Congress (OPC), which confirmed this in a statement yesterday by its Publicity Secretary, Mr. Sylvester Eweka, said the Federal Government had also drafted armed military personnel to take over the security of the facilities from the operatives.
The take-over, according Eweka, led to a violent clash between operatives of the militia group and the police at the oil pipeline close to Sagamu, Ogun State, during which three of its personnel had been declared missing. According to the statement, those missing were Babatunde Adeyemi, Roland Ajayi and Orungbeja Dele-Osagie.
