They were allegedly behind attacks on some facilities belonging to Chevron Nigerian Limited (CNL) in Warri North Local Government Area of Delta State between the months of May and July.
Commander, NNS Delta, Warri Naval Command, Commodore Joseph Dzunve, while parading the suspects on Saturday in Warri, said the Navy and other relevant sister agencies were doing their best to curb further attacks on pipeline installations at different locations in the Niger Delta axis.
“You are aware of the recent series of attacks on oil and gas facilities in the Niger Delta and in particular Delta State for which some groups of person claimed responsibilities.
“You will also recall that the Nigerian Navy and security agencies under Operation Delta Safe have been doing their best to eradicate these attacks.
He said the two suspects had provided useful information, adding that the Navy and other security agencies are on the trail of other fleeing members of the dreaded militant group.

“I no go lie, the last place him send us go burst pipeline na for Abitaye side the same place; na my uncle na him dey sponsor me; na when them catch me, I carry Navy go him place say na him be my Oga,” Tongha confessed.
