The Nigerian Defence Headquarters (DHQ) has categorically stated that it will not hesitate to deploy every available resources to deal decisively with any threats to economic lifeline of the nation.
This warning came at the heels of the threat made by a group in the Niger Delta region of the country, who call themselves the Niger Delta Avengers, as they allegedly vowed to cripple economic activities through pipeline vandalism, oil theft and kidnap of expatriate workers in Niger Delta.

Reaffirming its commitment to safety and protection of law abiding members of the community and oil companies, the DHQ said in the statement that "While the military and other security agencies would continue to emplace more proactive measures within the creeks and other places to fish out those responsible for the heinous crime, it will remain focused and assure oil companies and law abiding community members of their safety and protection of their sanctity".
Furthermore, "The DHQ advices the community leaders, Traditional Rulers and the general public to cooperate with the security agencies to ensure the apprehension of the culprits for the interest of our great nation; as no individual or group interest is above national interest of this country".
