- 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: (en)

- Armed gunmen boarded Panama-flagged MV ITRI during preps to deposit oil cargo at 2200 LT at Abidjan anchorage, Ivory Coast. Vessel and 16 Nigerian crew held. Master reportedly radioed the port manager to report difficulty manoeuvring following sand storm before contact lost. Port officials were informed armed men had boarded vessel. Reported 16 Jan. UPDATE: ITRI released after cargo theft. Crew unharmed. Vessel anchored off Lagos, Nigeria. Reported 22 Jan. (en)
- Dozens of armed pirates boarded the Malta-flagged Kalamos while it was anchored off the coast of southeastern Nigeria. After stealing all the crude oil they could haul-off, 3 crew members were taken prisoner and the ship's deputy commander was summarily executed. (en)
- The Greek chemical tanker MV Leon Davis was hijacked by pirates off the Nigerian coast. The pirates took control of the vessel and diverted it to the port of Cotonou, Benin where the hijackers then looted the ship of all its valuables before severely beating the ship's chief officer. The chief officer along with 4 other crew members are currently being held prisoner in an unknown location somewhere in Benin. (en)
- A Greek-owned oil carrier was hijacked by 7 Nigerian pirates off the coast of Calabar, not before a distress signal was sent out and picked up by the Nigerian Navy. Upon noticing an oncoming Nigerian Navy vessel the pirates opened fire on it. The naval gunship then returned fire and, after a short gunfight, 6 pirates were killed while 1 survivor was arrested before being treated for his injuries. (en)
- A Nigerian police gunboat escorting an oil barge owned by Eni came under fire from a group of pirates lying in wait on the Barbara River near Nembe.

- The oil tanker SP Brussels was hijacked 120 nautical miles off the coast of Lagos, en route from Port Harcourt. Upon sighting the pirates, 15 of the ship's 17 crew members immediately retreated to the ship's citadel. 6 pirates boarded the vessel while the other 2 pirates manned the speed boats. In an exchange of gunfire between the 6 pirates and the 2 security personnel assigned to the ship 2 crew members, the ship's captain and an Indian sailor, were shot dead before the pirates managed to disarm the 2 police officers and take possession of the ship. 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. (en)
- The Kiribati-flagged vessel MT Hai Soon 6 was boarded and hijacked by a group of 10 heavily armed pirates at 11:40PM UTC approximately 46 nautical miles off the coast of Anloga, Ghana.

- Pirates seized the oil tanker Abu Dhabi Star off the coast of Nigeria's largest port, Lagos. Upon seeing a Nigerian Navy vessel approaching, the pirates hopped back into their boats and made a hasty retreat. (en)
