PORT HARCOURT | Nigeria’s main militant group warned oil companies in the Niger Delta to evacuate their staff within 24 hours following heavy clashes with security forces in the southern Delta state Wednesday.
The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) said two of its camps had come under “unprovoked attack” and that it had sunk two gunboats in retaliation and inflicted several casualties on the military side.
MEND has issued such threats several times in the past, most recently in late January when it warned of a “sweeping assault” on the oil and gas industry, which never materialized. However, the clashes could trigger the first major escalation in violence in the Niger Delta since a six-day “oil war” last September, in which the militants attacked oil sites and forced Royal Dutch Shell to warn on its export obligations.
Attacks by MEND have cut Nigeria’s oil output by about a fifth since early 2006, forced foreign oil giants to remove all but essential staff and eaten into the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries member’s foreign earnings, exacerbating the impact of the global downturn.

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.
