NIGER DELTA AVENGERS WRITES BUHARI, SAYS MILITARY OPTION WILL FAIL

In a statement signed by its spokesman, Brig. Gen Mudoch Agbinibo, the group said it is constrained to write based on the President’s continuous disparaging remarks since the cessation and suspension of hostilities by “our fighters for liberation of the Niger Delta from economic colonialism of Nigeria”.




“We are curious of comments like ” Niger Delta militants objective is to colonize Nigeria economically; Niger Delta militants are sponsored by economic looters”… During the Passing Out Parade (POP) of the Nigerian Defence Academy (NDA) 63rd Regular Course; where you personally issued misleading statements and threats of decisive military action- if necessary to deal with Niger Delta agitation”, the group said and queried the rational for the President’s channels of talks through security agencies/agents and the Multinational Corporations.

“ Mr. President do democratically elected governments open channels for talks in situations like we have in the Niger Delta through security agencies/agents or you are assuming the Niger Delta as a conquered colony in your 1984 Era?”, the group queried.
The Niger Delta Avengers who also described the flag off of the process of clean up of Ogoniland as a charade, added that the President has continued to live in pretence and blind to the history of the Niger Delta agitation.

It noted that the psychopaths advising the President are as white as the snow and called on the President to start the Ogoni clean up process by reviewing the Sir Henry Willinks Commission Report 1958, The Ogoni Bill of Rights, The Kaiama Declaration document of the Ijaw Youths Council, The General Alexander Ogomudia Committee Report, and The Leedum Mitee led Niger Delta Technical Committee Report.

It noted that it is not in the trenches for the sake of arms struggle. “The people of Niger Delta; our forefathers have always resisted the colonization and exploitation of the land… Since antiquity even without weapons against all form of occupation army, as such we wonder how your desire for decisive military action is going to win this war in your four years term to end our legitimate objective of controlling our resources for posterity”, the group said.
