The militant group famous for attacking oil installations in the Niger Delta has stated that the Nigerian group isn't ready for peace talks, going by its actions.
The Niger Delta Avengers, in an interview with Vanguard said it tested the Nigerian government and it failed its test.
“In the first instance, we suspended hostilities in good faith to see if the government of the day was sincerely speaking when it announced its dialogue initiative. That was why for strategic reasons we did not make open declaration of our cessation of hostilities. We wanted to watch and to show Nigerians and the world the insincerity of the government’s dialogue plans.
“Until we resumed operations, nobody reached out to us and government did not establish any genuine platform to address our grievances," it said.
The group added that it will continue to bomb oil installations in the Niger Delta region, crippling the country's main source of income until President Buhari takes them and their demands seriously.
