absolute hogwash! Has the Niger Delta benefitted from the rebranded militants? Environmental pollution stopped? The militants are just a bunch of criminals who need to be silenced.
Romancing with them and allowing them have so much money is weakness. When Buhari comes onboard, militancy will cease and Niger Delta will be taken care of.
story only for the brainwashed almajiris

I'm a Nigerian and the wellbeing of my fellow Nigerian concerns me, especially if they are being scammed by people who claim to represent them. I care about ND people just as I care about displaced people in NE, whom you have been disgustingly mocking in your posts.
u are good at what u do by winning these two confutionists quoters even though ur first post is not clearly stated on which side u are but ur now i know where u driving at and vivid for ur quoters as well which prompted them digressing from the subject matter that affects fellow nigerians but berate ur stands of unison. Thumbs up man!

On June 28 2007, Vice President Goodluck Jonathan placed his life on the line, by travelling to Okerenko, visiting the notorious Camp five, where he held a seven hours meeting with all the leaders of the militant camps in the Niger Delta. He made the trip without a single security detail. The whole world stood still. For seven hours he was incommunicado. Global leaders feared the worst. He emerged from the creeks later, shaken but resolute. He came out of those creeks with a commitment from the militants and the Niger Delta disarmament program was borne. Normalcy returned in the region. The bloodletting ceased. Oil production tripled and the government could breath again. In 2012, the leadership of Jama’atul Ahlis Sunnah Lidda’awati Wal Jihad aka Boko Haram named General Buhari as the number one mediator they will listen to for peace to reign in the north east. The spokesman of the group, Abu Mohammed Ibn Abdulazeez, who doubles as the Second-in-Comma nd (Amir) to their leader, Imam Abubakar Shekau, made the group’s intention known in a tele-conference with journalists in Maiduguri. General Buhari declined the offer.

If Buhari truly loves this country, he would have taken that offer. But NO. That would have been a victory for the Jonathan government . So he declined the offer, rather promising to end the insurgency when he becomes President. Does this man deserve our vote? I don't think so. If we have to elect you as President before you assist the government in quelling an insurrection in your region, who will help us quell the crises if it erupts in other region. Be wise. Stick with facts. A vote for Buhari is a cowering to the dictates of terror. A vote for Buhari is a submission to hand over your mandate by the dictates of guns and blood. Vote President Jonathan . We will surely win the war against terror and secure our future. God bless Nigeria

I think that below is a better DATED reference to Jonathan's visit to the Creeks in 2007 as VP =>

Niger Delta: Life in the Creeks

Curiously, Government Ekpompolo a.k.a Tom Polo, who is the leader of Camp 5, has kept government and security top shots in suspense with his mode of operation. And his creed seems to be less talk and more action. Described as a focused, principled and courageous warlord, Ekpompolo is reputed to have four major camps, and his home is a Mecca of sorts for politicians as well as top government officials including some state governors in the Niger Delta. In fact, as part of the Federal Government’s search for peace in the troubled region, Vice President Goodluck Jonathan had also visited Camp 5 without any security detail, a move which ruffled feathers in military circles. And General L.P Ngubane, immediate past commander of the Joint Military Task Force in the Niger Delta did not mince words in expressing his dismay.

“It is disconcerting that Camp 5 has become a pilgrim centre for some important politicians, especially those from the Niger Delta. These constant visitations to a known criminal legalizes the activities of the militants, embolden and empower them financially and emotionally. For example, the Governors of Bayelsa, Rivers and Delta states at various times after their inauguration, visited Camp 5. Recently, the Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria also visited Camp 5 on June 28, 2007 without security details accompanying him just because the militants said so.”, he wrote in a memo reference TFRH/25/G, addressed to the Chief of Defence Staff, General Owoye Azazi.

While Dr. Goodluck Ebele Jonathan put his life at stake to negotiate peace with militants so that MORE Niger Delta oil revenue can flow into the national coffers to be shared by the 36 states and 774 LGAs our so-called, over-packaged "brave & courageous" old soldier could not take up the nomination by Boko Haram to negotiate in COMFORTABLE Saudi Arabia for peace in his own region.
