A Niger Delta militant group, Concerned Militant Leaders (CML), has claimed full responsibility for yesterday’s attack at Onitsha river, Anambra State, where eight soldiers were reported dead
Spokesman of the group, General Ben also added that the group executed the attack in Nkpor where three persons were killed and the burning of a police patrol van in Onitsha.
“My men were responsible for the killing of eight soldiers at Onitsha river. They were killed when my men attacked their military gunboat in Onitsha. We are responsible for the incident in Nkpor near Onitsha.
“It may sound doubtful; but we want to tell Nigerians that we are not limited to Niger Delta region. This is a warning to the Nigerian government that no amount of security threat will deter us. More attacks will still take place.
“We stand by every ultimatum given to any group or company. We will touch the soul of the economy of this nation. We are not interested in resources but, sovereignty”.
General Ben further said it was not their intention to strike yesterday, as it coincided with the anniversary of the Movement for the Actualization of Sovereign State of Biafra (MASSOB).
“We had to execute the operation to teach the military lesson. We have been quiet for a long time, but time for action has come”, he vowed.
