Nigerian authorities will host a meeting with Niger Delta community leaders and representatives of militants on October 31 in an attempt to put a stop to attacks on oil facilities in the region.
Oil Minister Emmanuel Ibe Kachikwu and possibly President Muhammadu Buhari would take part in the session, a source told Reuters. Buhari’s spokesman declined to comment.
For years operators in the Niger Delta have been subjected to attacks on their facilities by militants in an attempt to garner a greater share of the regions oil wealth. Attacks in recent months have cut Nigeria’s production by a third.
