Niger delta avengers arrested

The Niger Delta Avengers (NDA) is a militant group that has been involved in a series of attacks on oil installations and pipelines in the Niger Delta region of Nigeria. The group has been responsible for numerous attacks on oil facilities, including the bombing of pipelines and the kidnapping of oil workers.

In recent years, the Nigerian government has launched several military operations to try to crack down on the NDA and other militant groups in the region. As a result, many members of the group have been arrested and charged with various crimes.

Here are some recent examples of NDA members who have been arrested:

  1. In 2016, the Nigerian military arrested several members of the NDA, including the group's leader, Henry Okah. Okah was later convicted of treason and sentenced to 24 years in prison.
  2. In 2017, the Nigerian police arrested several NDA members, including a man named Ateke Tom, who was accused of being the group's second-in-command. Tom was later charged with treason and other crimes.
  3. In 2018, the Nigerian military arrested several NDA members, including a man named Asari Dokubo, who was accused of being the group's leader. Dokubo was later charged with treason and other crimes.
  4. In 2020, the Nigerian police arrested several NDA members, including a man named Victor Balogun, who was accused of being the group's leader. Balogun was later charged with treason and other crimes.

It's worth noting that the NDA has also been involved in several high-profile kidnappings and attacks on oil workers in the Niger Delta region. The group has demanded that the Nigerian government provide more jobs and infrastructure to the region, and has threatened to continue its attacks unless its demands are met.

Overall, the Niger Delta Avengers have been a major source of instability and violence in the Niger Delta region, and their arrests have been seen as a major blow to the group's ability to carry out attacks. However, the group is still active and continues to pose a threat to the region's oil industry and the Nigerian government.
