A militant group, Amagbein Force, suspected to have killed the 17 military personnel at Okuama, Delta State, on March 14, has demanded that the Federal Government hands over waterways security to the group.

A member of the group, in a trending video, today, said he was speaking for his leader , Amagbein, the River Lord.

The Army had since identified Amagbein as the mastermind of the March 12 slaughter of it’s men , and tracked him to Igbomotoru community in the Southern Ijaw Local Government Area, Bayelsa State, last week, but did not find him.
