Operatives of the Nigerian Navy Ship, code named NNS SOROH, have uncovered Improvised Explosive Devices (IED) and production factory in the Sangama Creeks, Bayelsa State.

Additional materials recovered from the camp included chemicals used for explosives and pipeline vandalism, as well as other incriminating items, which are in the custody of the Nigerian Navy Ship SOROH
The Navy promised to intensify their patrol along the waterways and creeks in Bayelsa State to ensure that the suspects are apprehended and prosecuted.
