Shell Emergency Response Team

One hears that Shell in their infinity wisdom hired the Militants to attempt to free the Shell CLO who was taken hostage by some villagers 12 days ago. Story has it that they succeeded, but ran out of luck, when they met the newly installed Joint Force Team somewhere in the creeks and lost some 10 of their own men in a shoot out...unfortunately the Shell man was amongst the casualties. Hornets' nest? Shell's intelligence at it's best...once again. Mind you, this account of what happened is from the bush drums. I'm sure we'll have Shell's side of the story very soon.
