FORMER leaders of Niger Delta militants have warned that they will go back to the creeks if the 2015 presidential election is manipulated to edge out President Goodluck Jonathan.

The ex-militant leaders, who issued the warning while speaking with newsmen in Port Harcourt on Sunday, expressed sadness over an alleged plot to scheme Jonathan out of the 2015 race for the Presidency.

The former militants, who gathered under the auspices of the Niger Delta Ex-agitators Forum and the Association for Non-violence in Niger Delta, said they would see the outcome of the election as an act of God if Jonathan genuinely loses out in 2015.

NDEF President, Mr. Amaibi Ombi, cautioned that it was better to allow for a free and fair election than to manipulate the process in order to scheme out Jonathan.

On the recent comments credited to the Special Adviser to the President on Niger Delta Affairs, Mr. Kingsley Kuku, and Alhaji Mujahid Dokubo-Asari, Ombi insisted that such statements could not be a threat to Nigeria as a country.

Dokubo-Asari had warned that Nigeria would be history if he was arrested for threatening violence in the whole country if Jonathan was not allowed to run a two-term tenure as President.

But Ombi described Dokubo-Asari’s stataement as no threat, but a statement to canvass the need for the President’s critics to allow him (Jonathan) run for two tenures in office.

“We will go back to the creeks if the 2015 presidential election is manipulated to scheme out President Goodluck Jonathan. But if the election is not manipulated, and Jonathan loses out, we would see it as the handiwork of God,” Ombi stressed.

The former militant leader claimed that some politicians, especially those from the North, were using Boko Haram to intimidate Jonathan out of the 2015 presidential election.

“They have been sending Boko Haram to harass and intimidate President Jonathan so that he will withdraw from the 2015 presidential race. Asari’s comment was not a threat; he (Dokubo-Asari) just wanted Nigerians to know that there is a need for Jonathan to go for two tenures,” the ex-fighter emphasised.

In his remark, ANND President, Mr. Kenneth West, cautioned Kuku and Dokubo-Asari against making inflamatory statements but warned against any move to arrest them over their comments on the 2015 general election.

West said some well-known political leaders in the northern part of the country had made similar comments in the past without anybody suggesting that they should be arrested.

He alleged that the corruption began in the North and wondered why nobody raised any dust on corruption when the northerners were in control of government.

“Asari only warned that in 2015, if Jonathan is not elected President, Nigeria will not be one. He was only warning; he was not threatening. If we are talking about corruption, it started from the North,” he said.

Abeg they should sharrap and let us hear word, what is their own sef? Its not even as if GEJ is worth voting into power again, having said that, we also don't want a boko haram member as president .

Gej will complete his 2 terms in office.we nigerians knows the truth.negative media reports tends to work for this people opposing gej,but the truth must always prevail.

I don't take MEND's threat fo granted. I wonder why people who make silly threats shouldn't have been arrested by now. What a sick country!

It is not news that some people are above the law in this country, so...

I was just discusing wit a colleague in office n he said GEJ has messed dis country up such dat anybody can just make inflamatery statement without being questioned by SSS. I told him there is no way u can arrest Asari Dokubo for instance wen Kaita has made similer remark yet he wasn't arrested. Buhari, Atiku too all made treeatening statements yet they were nt arrested. GEJ probably didn't want t arrest dem then bcuz that wud av heat up d polity . One thing is clear here, North can't stand being out of power 4 soo long . They hv reached their boiling point n GEJ is just tryn to manage d situation soo it won't brake up d country.

Memoirs to Ojukwu,

Dear Sir,

The threats are still going on!
From North to South and from South to North!

this is 2013, but 2015 has taken the center stage as if it is just next week.

We have being calling on Biafrans still living in the Jihardists country to relocate for their own good, but they have not accepted yet. Maybe after the blood bath in 2015, those of them that will survive will heed the call to leave.

The North want the Presidency at all cost and they have not left anyone in doubt of what will happen if they don't get it.

I will keep you posted.

My regards to all fallen heroes!

Mend and other groups can only thrive under a weak president, where was mend or boko haram when Obj was president. 2015 will tell

emmydeep:

He will loose genuinely ni.
But either way, u will unleash ur violence.
We knw it's in ur blood!

Sometime ago, OBJ gave an interview to al-Jazeera. They asked him what his greatest achievement for 8 years in office was. He say'SECURITY'. Then, I thought what a joke. Today, I eat my words. Security is a reliable measure of a strong presidency. Jomo Gbomo, Abu Qaqa, Ombatse, MEND,etc. Who born them during OBJ tenure?

.

Truth is ...

2015 will come, the vampires will appear and do their thing....the chickens will die......shikena


Then 2019 campaign and threats will start immediately.

You're just a spectator at best and victim at worse.
