"General" John Togo, The New Face Of The Niger Delta Insurgency, Speaks To SaharaReporters
"General" John Togo, the leader of a newly created militant group known as the Niger Delta Liberation Force (NDLF), spoke to SaharaReporters from what he described as his "Israel Barracks" location in Delta State. In the phone interview, Togo spoke about the activities of his group whose renewed insurgency has so far shut down three refineries and inflicted substantial damage on the Nigerian oil industry. Chevron, ExxonMobil and Shell have been hit with the renewed insurgency of this group of Niger Delta militants led by "General" Togo.
In the interview, a confident-sounding "General" Togo denied the claim by the Nigerian military that members of its Joint Task Force (JTF) had surrounded him. In addition to articulating his group's demands, he also explained why he had abandoned the "amnesty" extended to Niger Delta militants by the Yar'adua government. In the interview, "General" Togo gave fresh conditions for peace in the region.
