This is contained in a statement signed by
its Director of Information, Commodore
Christian Ezekobe, and made available to
newsmen in Abuja.
According to Ezekobe, the suspect who was
picked up on July 11 at about 11 a.m., is
believed to be a major logistics supplier to
the group which had claimed responsibility
for attacks on NNPC and Chevron pipelines
in the region.
``The arrest was made following a
confessional statement obtained from an
earlier arrested suspect who gave details of
the involvement of other collaborators in the
attacks.
``Preliminary investigations also revealed
that the suspect recently supplied 10
batteries, five large coils of wire and other
materials purportedly used for the attacks,’’
the director said.
The NN said it would continue to partner
with sister security agencies and members
of the public to eliminate all forms of
economic sabotage such as vandalisation of
pipelines and piracy.
