Another leak/fire was reported on April 20 on the Kolo 
Creek–Rumuekpe trunk line in Bayelsa State, where an excavated ditch was
 discovered at the fire point, about 5kms from the manifold operated by 
Shell Petroleum Development Company, SPDC, Vanguard reports.
Meanwhile, the Joint Investigation Visit, JIV, at the Kolo 
Creek Manifold spill in Bayelsa State, which occurred on April 15, 2015,
 has attributed the leak to sabotage.
But a concerned stakeholder from the host community who 
pleaded anonymity, insisted that if the cause of the spill was sabotage 
as contained in the JIV report then it was a fallout of negligence by 
surveillance staff of SPDC.
The facility owned by SPDC, is located along the strategic 
Edepie-Otuasega-Imiringi Road linking Ogbia Local Government Area to 
mainland Yenagoa.
