List of ships attacked by Nigerian pirates

Since 2009 a number of ships have been attacked by Nigerian pirates.

The pirates are generally believed to be ex-militant members of the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta who steal crude oil off tanker ships and sell it to buyers on the black market.

In April 2013 the African Union began funding extra security forces and increased security in the Gulf of Guinea but this has had little to no effect on piracy in the region.

Since 2011, over 30 ships have been hijacked and 100 sailors have been kidnapped, including:

Before the hijackers made it on board an emergency signal was sent to the Nigerian Navy who immediately deployed several gunships to retrieve the vessel. After four days at sea the hijacked vessel was spotted by the Nigerian Navy and forced back into Nigerian waters, but, while negotiating the ship's release the pirates attempted to flee in their speedboats. The navy continued the pursuit but were fired upon by the hijackers. After a 30-minute gun battle, 12 pirates lay dead while the remaining 4 surrendered peacefully after seeing the fate of their comrades.

In the early hours of January 18, 2014 the Liberian-flagged oil vessel MT Kerala departed from the port of Luanda, Angola without any notice. As time went on, the owners of the MT Kerala began to worry and suspected that it may have been hijacked. On January 26, 8 days after being reported missing, the oil vessel was located nearly 3,000km north off the coast of Warri, Nigeria. The 27 man crew reported that the vessel had been hijacked and robbed of its 13,000 metric tons of refined petroleum. Although officially declared a "hijacking" both Angolan and Nigerian authorities suspect that there may have been some sort of an "inside job" due to conflicting reports of the events that transpired, as well as numerous reports of an unidentifiable vessel heading southwards in the days leading up to the supposed hijacking.

Upon searching the ship, the pirates found that it was devoid of human life and immediately discovered the entire 15 man crew huddled together in the citadel. The pirates immediately set sail to go offload the ship's cargo, but unfortunately, the Nigerian Navy had gotten wind of the hijacking and immediately gave pursuit. 2 Nigerian Navy vessels cut-off the pirates escape route and a gun duel ensued. In the end, 2 pirates were shot dead while the other 6 were arrested.

On August 7, 2015 four speedboats filled with heavily armed sea pirates attacked the Joint Task Force's Nembe Waterfront Base, located along the Brass River, before engaging a group of defending Nigerian soldiers in a bloody firefight. The four Nigerian soldiers stationed at the base were caught off guard and were easily gunned down by their attackers along with a Nigerian police officer who happened to be at the wrong place at the wrong time. The group of pirates then stormed the undefended base and managed to steal two high-powered machine guns along with a cache of weapons consisting mainly of single-shot rifles, shotguns, and handguns before making their escape back into the Niger Delta. The military high-command in Abuja made an effort to locate the rebels and recapture their stolen weaponry but came up empty handed in their attempts.

The Nigerian Navy raided and seized the oil vessel MT Askja on September 30 after it was suspected to be transporting a cargo of stolen crude oil. The vessel was anchored in the Forçados River estuary while being loaded with a cargo of stolen crude oil that was likely in transit to an illegal oil refinery located somewhere in the Niger Delta, before the Joint Task Force launched a surprise raid on the pirate's oil tanker, likely a hijacked commercial vessel re-commissioned to transport stolen goods.

The Comoros-flagged cargo ship Reefer Solarte was hijacked on the evening of October 19, 2015 by a group of armed pirates off the coast of Port Harcourt. The armed pirates attacked the vessel, boarded the ship without much resistance, and proceeded to ransack the ship for whatever valuables they could get their hands on. They stole the ship's cash, destroyed electronic equipment, and kidnapped 4 sailors, 2 Lithuanians and 2 Ukrainians, before making their escape. It is speculated that the armed gang of pirates was forced to widen their range of operations after the Nigerian Navy increased patrols in the Bonny River region of the Niger Delta in April 2015, leading to the arrest of 10 armed pirates during a hijacking 6 months earlier. After weeks of negotiating, the Russian company that owned the ship paid the ransom demanded by the pirates in exchange for the 4 kidnapped sailors. All 4 sailors were released in good health by their captors on November 16 and are scheduled to be sent to their countries of origin after giving witness evidences.

2015-11-06
On November 6, 2015 at approximately 8:45am the town of Afikpo in Ebonyi State was invaded by a group of heavily armed pirates in speed boats. The pirates entered the community via Ndibe beach, located along a small tributary of the Cross River, mounted atop speedboats and armed with machine guns and high-caliber weapons. The police stationed in Afikpo became quickly overwhelmed by the violent onslaught unleashed by the invading pirates, who then proceeded to blow up a police vehicle with dynamite, ransacked numerous houses/businesses, and burned down several structures along with about 10 motorcycles. When news of the attack reached Abakaliki the state Commissioner of Police, Peace Abdallah, led a combined force of Nigerian Army soldiers and state police officers to Afikpo in an attempt to drive off the hoard of pirates. The pirates opened fire once they had spotted Nigerian government forces but were met with an equally impressive show of force which then erupted into a full-blown gunfight. The pirates were forced to retreat while under heavy fire from the Nigerian Army but managed to kill a Nigerian Police Inspector and abduct 2 civilians during the melee before fleeing, without suffering a single casualty, in their speedboats via the same waterway they had used to enter the city.

On November 27, 2015 the Cyprus-flagged cargo vessel Szafir was boarded by a group of heavily armed pirates 30 nautical miles off the Nigerian coast. The pirates opened fire from the two speed boats they were sailing in and forced the cargo ship to drop anchor before being boarded and looted. After the pirates looted the ship of any cash and valuables, they took the ship's captain and 4 Polish sailors hostage before sailing back into the Niger Delta. The pirates soon got into contact with Polish Foreign Minister Witold Waszczykowski and managed to negotiate an undisclosed ransom that was to be paid in-full to the hijackers in return for the release of the 5 Polish sailors. Polish authorities paid the ransom demanded by the abductors for the release of all 5 sailors. They were released by their abductors on December 8 in healthy condition; all were set to be returned to Poland.

A Bulgarian oil vessel was hijacked by pirates 160 kilometers off Nigeria's Bakassi Peninsula. Reports indicate that the pirates attacked the ship using two speedboats before then boarding the ship and locking the entire crew in the mess room. An ultimatum was issued by the pirates stating that if Nnamdi Kanu, leading member of the Indigenous People of Biafra (IPOB), is not released from jail within 31 days they will blow up the ship along with its crew. It is unknown who these pirates are working on behalf of but it is speculated that they are Niger Delta militants fighting in support of the pro-Biafra movement, that is once again taking Igboland and much of southeastern Nigeria by storm.

On February 16, 2016 6 heavily armed Nigerian pirates boarded the French owned oil vessel Bourbon Liberty 251 55 nautical miles off the Nigerian coast. The pirates managed to capture the ship's master, a Russian citizen, along with a Nigerian sailor while the other 10 crew members managed to lock themselves in the engine room. As the pirates looted the ship and damaged its communications, the 10 crew members managed to send out a distress signal to the Nigerian Navy who immediately dispatched a vessel to intercept the ship. When the pirates spotted the naval vessel approaching on the horizon they took the 2 captured crew members hostage and fled back towards the Niger Delta. Nigerian authorities are currently attempting to contact the pirates in order to negotiate some sort of deal in order to release the 2 captured crewmen.
