NIGERIA‘Shell must stay out of our oil’ – Nigerian militants
Lagos – Nigerian militants on Thursday warned Anglo-Dutch oil giant Shell against resuming operations in areas where it has shut production in the restive Niger Delta region. The warning followed reports that the company plans to resume production within a few weeks.
“They are welcome to test our resolve, but we promise you they will pay a hefty price for their foolishness,” the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (Mend), said on Thursday.
The militants also denied engaging in any reconciliatory talks with Shell.
By March, Shell and its Nigerian joint venture subsidiaries were losing 500 000 barrels of oil per day, following attacks by the militants against the company's platforms in Niger Delta.
Shell Petroleum Development Company (SPDC) is the largest oil-producing company in Nigeria, Africa's largest oil producer at 2.5 million barrels per day.
Shell's head of exploration and production, Malcolm Brinded, told shareholders at the company's annual general meeting in Scheveningen, near The Hague, on Tuesday, that SPDC had started the process of resuming production in Nigeria and had started negotiating with communities to pave the way for the resumption.
Mend, which is seeking a larger slice of the oil resources from the Niger Delta, has promised to step up attacks against oil workers, facilities and some political leaders from the area as part of its campaign, which has involved the kidnapping of foreign oil workers. -panapress

Royal Dutch Shell conspired directly with Hitler, financed the Nazi Party, was anti-Semitic and sold out its own Dutch Jewish employees to the Nazis. Shell had a close relationship with the Nazis during and after the reign of Sir Henri Deterding, an ardent Nazi, and the founder and decades long leader of the Royal Dutch Shell Group. His burial ceremony, which had all the trappings of a state funeral, was held at his private estate in Mecklenburg, Germany. The spectacle (photographs below) included a funeral procession led by a horse drawn funeral hearse with senior Nazis officials and senior Royal Dutch Shell directors in attendance, Nazi salutes at the graveside, swastika banners on display and wreaths and personal tributes from Adolf Hitler and Reichsmarschall, Hermann Goring. Deterding was an honored associate and supporter of Hitler and a personal friend of Goring.
Deterding was the guest of Hitler during a four day summit meeting at Berchtesgaden. Sir Henri and Hitler both had ambitions on Russian oil fields. Only an honored personal guest would be rewarded with a private four day meeting at Hitler’s mountain top retreat.
