The state security outfit set up by the Bayelsa state Government to Tackle crime "Operation Doo-Akpo" might just have averted another massacre similar to that of the Ahoada explosions, where scooping of oil from a fallen tanker resulted in a fire explosion that ended the lives of over a 130 youths.
Confirmed reports reaching us this morning says the operation Doo Akpor team responded to a report of a crime in progress at about 11pm last night to find "bunkerers" who had burst one of the shell pipelines in that area with hydrocarbons gushing out of the pipeline . Although The criminals took to their heels on arrival of the men of the Doo Akpo team, the pipeline was still gushing out hydrocarbons. This preempted The Doo Akpo team to inform the near by shell camp of the vandalization in other to prevent a massive fire outbreak or residents of that area scooping for the product now identified as diesel.
The staff of shell was said to have contained the leak while the Doo Akpo team maintained patrol in the area all night..
Remember Protecting of lives and properties should not be left in the hands of our security agents alone. We have a reponsibilty to our State and Nation to work with our security agents. Special thanks to whomever thought it wise to call the operation Doo Akpo security outfit. Incase you don't have it, this is the hotline for the Operation Doo Akpo security outfit 07006464644. Let security be our priority.
