Nigerian Violence Could Cause Oil Crisis

Since the US gets a good portion of their crude from here, this could be a major prob in the near future.


A major crisis loomed in the nation's oil and gas industry yesterday as senior workers threatened to withdraw from the Niger Delta if the current spate of killings in the region continues.

Petroleum and Natural Gas Senior Staff Association of Nigeria (PENGASSAN) which issued the threat also charged the Federal Government to summon enough political will to tackle increasing violence in the region.

Speaking in the same vein, Rivers State government urged the security agencies to address illegal oil bunkering and the activities of cult and militant gangs in the state.
