It was a hell of confusion on Tuesday night, as Niger Delta militants blew up a crude oil trunk-line in Ughelli, Delta State, barely 24 hours after Vice President, Yemi Osinbajo, led a Federal Government delegation to visit the region.
The attack, which occurred behind the SETRACO construction yard, along the East/West Express Road, in Ughelli, in Ughelli North Local Government, was said to be connected with the alleged ill-treatment and disregard for some monarchs in the State, during the Federal Government delegation’s visit.
Recall, that Osinbajo, accompanied by the Minister of State for Petroleum, Dr. Ibe Kachikwu; and the Coordinator of the Presidential Amnesty Programme, Gen. Paul Boroh; had on Monday visited the Traditional Ruler of Gbaramatu Kingdom, the Olu of Warri, and a cross-section of Traditional Rulers, drawn from Urhobo, Isoko, and Ndokwa ethnic nationalities at the PTI Conference Centre.
Although, security sources in the State confirmed the attack under the condition of anonymity, none of them could confirm the true cause of the incident.
They however, stressed that they were mobilising in collaboration with the Delta State Fire Service in the area to put out the inferno.
Elsewhere, another military source dismissed the claim that militants were responsible for the attack, noting that indiscriminate bush burning was responsible for the inferno.
