LATEST ON NIGER DELTA AVENGERS

Nigeria is currently facing another problem of militancy, as a new group has emerged, known as the niger delta avengers. Recently, there have been cases of bombing of oil pipelines in the Niger Delta Region by this new militant group.This has led to the depletion in oil production in Nigeria, thereby doing more harm to the economy of our nation.
Their grouze is that they want a Niger delta state.
There is a recent development. The Nigerian Military had claimed that they killed some members of the group.But suprisingly, the group came out to counter this, by saying that their members are all intact and no one of them is missing. See their tweet below.

Previous government Commissioner for Information and Ijaw pioneer, Chief Edwin Clark, has requested that President Muhammadu Buhari copy his forerunners, late President Umaru Yar'Adua, and previous President Goodluck Jonathan by exchanging words with the Niger Delta aggressors whose exercises were debilitating the peace, soundness and conceivable presence of Nigeria. As indicated by him, both late Yar'Adua and Jonathan conveyed ex-activists to the transaction table which prompted constructive outcome on the country's economy. Tending to writers yesterday at his Asokoro home in Abuja, Chief Clark, who is the director, Board of Trustees of Ijaw National Council, INC, repudiated the Niger Delta Avengers which had as of late restarted militancy in the Niger Delta. It would be recalled that President Muhammadu Buhari had ordered the Nigerian Military to move into the Niger delta Region to contend with these Militant group.
Do you think it is wise to dialogue with this group? what can Nigeria do in the face of this crises?
