Airforce destroys illegal refinery in Rivers

The Air Component of Operation Delta Safe unleashed a barrage of heavy gunfire against an assault against crude oil thieves and their illegal refineries.

According to reports, the air strike, which was carried out as a result of information, destroyed an illegal oil refinery in Dariama Village, a community located about 20 kilometres south of Abonnema and 50 kilometres south of Portharcourt in the Nigerian state of Rivers.

"It is important to note that this illegal site was observed to be active with tanks and reservoirs filled with suspected illegal refined products," a source in the Airforce said.

“The air strike yet again reaffirms the commitment of the Armed Forces of Nigeria towards eradicating the activities of oil thieves and illegal oil bunkerers.”
