Evacuate Our Oil Terminals Because It Will Get Dirty Soon; NDA To PENGASSAN And NUPENG

Members of the Niger Delta Avengers (NDA)
have urged members of the National Union of
Petroleum and Natural Gas (NUPENG) and the
Petroleum and Gas Senior Staff Association of
Nigeria (PENGASSAN) to vacate all oil fields
and terminals in the Niger Delta.
The group also asked expatriates to leave too,
vowing that it’s renewed onslaught on oil
facilities “will be dirty very soon.”
Spokesperson of NDA, Brig. Gen. Mudock
Agbinibo, gave the threats in a statement
posted on the group’s website on Wednesday.
“We are warning Nupeng and Pengassan to
leave all oil field and terminals in the Niger
delta because it will be going to be dirty very
soon.
“Foreigners are to leave too,” the NDA
warned.
Agbinibo, who claimed that the militant group
was already winning the war against the
Nigerian state, said it was appalling that every
criminal nabbed by security operatives in the
Niger Delta was being tagged member of the
Avengers.
He described the development, particularly on
the part of the Nigerian Navy and the Nigeria
Army as unprofessional and a means to
continue to fleece the Federal Government of
taxpayers’ money.
“Contrary to local news that Nigeria Navy has
arrested Niger Delta Avengers logistics
supplier is the biggest joker of the
21st century.
“As it now any Tom, Dick and Harry is a
suspect of Niger Delta avengers. Nigeria Navy
has lost the sense of professionalism.
“The Nigeria military arrested school students
in Oporoza and called them the Niger Delta
Avengers, any criminal caught is NDA, even
their Business partners (Illegal Oil bunkers)
with which things went south are NDA, Sea
pirates are now NDA,” he averred.
The militants’ mouth-piece said it was
unfortunate that the Nigerian military has
continued to deny their (NDA’s) dastardly
operations against oil and gas installations,
adding that he personally led the team that
bombed the Qua Iboe Export terminal
belonging to Exxonmobil in Akwa-Ibom last
week.
“When Niger Delta Avengers carries out any
major attack they (Nigeria Military) will deny
it. First? was the NNPC pipeline that was
blown; second the 48-inches Exxonmobil
pipeline that was blown by NDA.
“Mobil and the Government denied it. Only for
Exxonmobil to declare false majeure few days
after the attack.
“We want the general public to know the Qua
Iboe export pipeline is down right now,” he
disclosed.
Agbinibo described the Qua Iboe Export
terminal as a subsidiary of Mobil and the
biggest export stream in Nigeria, adding that
no less than one million barrel of crude oil was
exported every 48 hours.
He advised the leadership of the Nigerian
military to stop deceiving the general public
and President Muhammadu Buhari on the true
state of Avengers’ activities in the region.
“They should come out with the truth in Akwa
Ibom instead of saying Niger Delta Avengers
didn’t blow up their line but system anomaly.
“Shame on the Nigeria Military,” the group
submitted.
The militants boasted that there was no way
the Nigerian military would be able to get at
them, saying very soon, Nigerians and the
Federal Government would soon realize that
NDA was indomitable.
“Reports from our intelligent agent, the only
way funds can be allocated to various
department of the Military is only when they
(Nigeria Military) arrest the Niger Delta
Avengers operatives.
“But soonest, the Nigeria public and their
commander in Chief will now the Military is
not capable to handle the Niger Delta
Avengers.
“How do you explain a military officer having a
house in choice areas in Nigeria and outside
the country? Nigeria serving and retired top
officers are the richest people in Nigeria.
“How do they get such wealth? Right now, they
are using Niger Delta Avengers to defraud the
Nigeria government and tax payers of their
money.
“We want to make this clear, all Niger Delta
Avengers operatives are intact, our intelligent
agencies are all intact and our operative team
are in high spirit because we are winning the
war.

Researchers Says Paracetamol Causes Infertility; Reasons

Experts have warned that a common painkiller could
impair a man’s fertility.
New research suggests that paracetamol, which is
also known as acetaminophen and sold under the
brand name Tylenol in the United States (U.S.) and
Panadol in the United Kingdom (U.K.), has been
linked to infertility.
The findings are published online in Human
Reproduction but was first reported by DailyMailUK
Online.
Couples, where the male partner had high levels of
the drug in his urine took longer to conceive,
according to scientists at the National Institutes of
Health
That was compared to men who had lower levels of
the compound in their system.
Paracetamol is a non-prescription drug widely used
as a pain reliever and to reduce fever.
It is also one of the compounds produced when the
body breaks down aniline, a chemical used to make
rubber, pesticides, and coloring agents used in food,
cosmetics and clothing.
Dr. Melissa Smarr, the study’s first author, from
United States (NIH’s) Eunice Kennedy Shriver
National Institute of Child Health and Human
Development, said: “At this point, our findings need
to be corroborated by future research, and there is
no cause for alarm.’
Smarr explained that the high levels of paracetamol
in the urine of certain men, who participated in the
study, were unlikely to result from taking the
painkillers alone.
The findings, she said, are more consistent with those
seen from environmental exposure, either to aniline
or paracetamol, or a combination of the two.
But, she said, the findings could have implications for
the amount of paracetamol exposure that is deemed
acceptable.
Researchers led by Dr Smarr analyzed data from the
Longitudinal Investigation of Fertility and the
Environment (LIFE) study, established to examine
how lifestyle and exposure to environmental
chemicals may affect fertility.

Amazing: 20 Years Woman Birth 3 Healthy Set Of Twins In 2years

Danesha Couch, from Kansas City in Missouri, gave
birth to THREE sets of twins in just a couple of years

The 20-year-old joked to Fox TV station WDAF :
“People just consider me a freak of nature when I tell
them.”
Explaining that she doesn’t mind the sleepless nights
and piles of laundry, Danesha added: “I love babies.”

Danesha releases two eggs at once, which are both
ready to be fertilised.
This is how she has managed to conceive the miracle
babies without any medical treatment – despite the
odds of doing this being just one in 88,000.
Her eldest child, two-year-old Danarias, is a twin too.
Sadly his brother Desmond died shortly after birth –
due to complications from being born prematurely.
Danesha recalled: “That was a pretty bad time.”

She also has one-year-old twins Delilah and Davina,
and two tiny babies who were born last month.
The youngsters spent three weeks in neo-natal
intensive care, but have now been allowed home to be cared for by their busy mum.
Dr Elizabeth Wickstrom said women of African
heritage are more likely to have multiple sets of twins
Dr Elizabeth Wickstrom, of Shawnee Mission Medical
Center, told WDAF: “But the fact that you’ve ever done it before makes you more likely to do it again.”
Apparently, women of African heritage are more likely to have multiple sets of twins.
