that's why sp is so low Intelligence obtained from Puntland Security Ministry confirm plans by Al-Shabaab to attack oil drilling company resources Africa Oil and its strategic partner Horn Petroleum in Dharoor Valley Puntland.
Events playing out since February 2012 indicate that Al-Shabaab is about to attack the oil drilling companies resources and staff, most likely, take employees hostage besides destroy equipment.
Strategic Intelligence confirms that locals living around the exploration and drilling site are not happy with the drilling citing environmental concern and no consultations about the oil exploration and drilling activities of the Canadian firm Africa Oil.
Al-Shabaab soldiers have been massing in the Galgala mountains of the Bari region of Puntland after fleeing increased military pressure from allied forces in Somalia.
Al-Shabaab was quoted in February and March threatening to nullify all oil exploration contracts though they do not have the capacity to enact such a drastic measure.
