Militants blow up NPDC oil pipeline in Niger Delta – youth leader

Militants have blown up a crude oil pipeline operated by Nigeria’s state oil firm NNPC in the Niger Delta, a youth leader said on Monday, the latest in a series of attacks on oil and gas facilities in the restive region.

“The attack on the Afiesere-Ekiugbo delivery line belonging to the NPDC shoreline happened yesterday,” said Lucky Solue, a youth leader, referring to a unit of NNPC. There was no immediate information on any impact on production.
