The statement reads, “Let it be put on record that if the NDDC is removed from the supervision of the Niger Delta Ministry to the Office of the Secretary to the federation government, we will carry out collateral damage on all available oil installations and facilities across the length and breadth of the Niger Delta region. 

“We have warned and there will be no going back as enough is enough with playing politics and power tussle with the development of the region which spoon that feeds the nation. 

“If this callous, inhuman, devilish and heartless arrangement is not put to an end the RNDA should not be hold responsible for any causality that happens to bring down the production of crude oil production in the creeks of Niger Delta.

“The Leader of RNDA at the emergency meeting with its high militant command from the region also discuss some affecting issues in the creek and vowed that the nation will be brought to its knees.

“We vowed to return Nigeria to the era of another recession if the secretary to federal government and the so called selfish self centered greedy power drunk politicians refuses to stop their evil arrangement.
