Report reaching us says the federal government has agreed to a one-month ceasefire with NDA militant groups in the Niger Delta.
The source added that it was very difficult getting the Niger Delta Avengers to the negotiating table but it was eventually done through a proxy channel and a truce was achieved.
Channelstv reported that the Minister of State for Petroleum Dr. Ibe Kachikwu, had led a government delegation to different camps in Bayelsa and Delta states, including visiting the temporary site of the Maritime University at Okerenkoko, Gbaramatu Kingdom, Delta State.
This was all in a bid to reach out to representatives of the militant groups to get them to stop the attacks on oil and gas facilities.
