FOLLOWING the statement credited to the Niger Delta People Volunteer Force (NDPVF) led by Alhaji Mujahid Asari Dikubo, that the North conspired with the South West to deny President Goodluck Jonathan a second term in office, another group in the Niger Delta, the Niger Delta Peoples Confederation, yesterday faulted the comment asserting that Gen.Muhammadu Buhari’s emergence reflects the wishes of majority of Nigerians and not a conspiracy.

Dokubo-Asari
The Co-ordinator, NDPC, Mr Iyamu Osaro Culture, in a press statement in Benin City, reminded Alhaji Dokubo that the entire Nigerians voted for President Jonathan in 2011 because he enjoyed the support of Nigerians then, adding that rather than attributing ethnicity to Jonathan’s failure, Niger Deltans must all support the new administration so as to fast tract development in the region and Nigeria as a whole.
According to the statement, “Let no one see the emergence of General Muhammadu Buharias a conspiracy against the Niger Delta people because it is the voice of the people. In 2011 both the North and the entire South supported Jonathan because we all wanted him. But now people said they needed change let no body attribute it to ethnicity. Let us all take example from President Jonathan for congratulating Buhari, that is democracy in practice and the world will continue to respect him for that.
“At this critical time, we the people of Niger Delta wants rapid development of our region, countless youth empowerment and above all want the president –elect when sworn-in to retrieve all our oil wells that belongs to individuals and perhaps re-allocate them to Niger Delta states for aggressive transformation of our region.
“However, if the President-elect fails to meet with our expectations after four years, then we would change his government through the ballot just the same process President Jonathan was shown the way out. So we want to appeal to Mr Asari Dokubo to kindly give peace a chance as we look forward in joining the incoming President to transform our region and Nigeria at large which is not negotiable”.

Who should be blamed then, should the PDP shareholders in various states to be blamed for not living up to expectations despite the huge fund spent in the campaigns?

Asari Dokubo is based in cotonou....he should be totally ignored.

Why did he build a private university in cotonou if he truly wants his people in the Niger Delta to be developed?

I DON'T KNOW WHETHER U UNDERSTAND THE MEANING OF A FREEDOM FIGHTER? U WANT HIM TO BUILD IT IN NIGERIA SO THAT THEY CAN FREZE IT AND RENDER HIM POOR AND POWERLESS.
IT IS LIKE ASKING AN ANGEL TO INVEST IN DEVILS EMPIRE.
ASARI MAKES SENSE IN THAT ONE.

Asari has future for us people? Abeg which kind of future is that? Since you Igbos are so much in love with him, we dash you, so that he can plot your future for you, i am sure you want a bright future too.

We as people of the whole south - south want a future of development, education for our children, peace and justice. We reject Asari kind of development of war, oil spills and selfish interest. He should take such developments to igbo land or better still Benin Republic.

You must be living on planet mars. Google Asari's interview where he listed his various investments during his arrest in Benin republic.

All Jonathan had to do was seize the oil wells from individual Nigerians and given the licenses to the Niger Delta. All this talk of resource control would have been over.

Today how does the general population benefit from the fact that TY Danjuma or Alakija own oil wells? What difference does it make to the masses if the oil wells are given to Niger Deltans? TY Danjuma pays taxes to the FG and the ND will still pay the same taxes so what difference would it make to the average Nigerian?

Today ND states take 13 percent derivative. If the oil well licenses are returned, Nigeria would have the right to stop the 13 percent derivative. There is Niger Delta ministry, that would also be scrapped. Also there is NDDC. All these places are just for rent seeking.

The money that should be shared by millions of people is being eaten by a few. This must stop.

I am not a Niger Deltan, but a concerned Nigerian.

Asari, A freedom fighter? That is the joke of the century. Whos freedom has he been fighting for? Maybe the freedom of his pockets and those of his criminal gang. The real freedom fighters of the Niger Delta are martyrs like Ken Saro Wiwa, who fought Abacha to a stand still and refuse all financial inducements from Abacha and shell.

Hmmm.....

Tell him ooo0

so ur don't know ur hero/lord has a university in benin republic..am laffin at u in chinese

Asari Dokubo is another reason why I sincerely think GEJ's congratulatory phone call to the president elect is seriously overhyped.

If he was just a good man who loves peace, why has Asari "ashiri eda" Dokubo been put in his place by now? Is his continuous meaningless hate speeches not enough to put his beautiful country in a state of war?

Why has the nonsense in Rivers not been dealt with by now?

GEJ did well congratulating our honourable president elect. But hey, his body language to other important matters has shown he only did that has he has/had no choice.

And people like you ( double standard people) will have the audacity to abuse boko haram. Asari Dokubo isn't different from boko haram. Both are terrorists.

If the SS is given the licenses, why would you still want the SS to be paid derivation?

trillville:


If the SS is given the licenses, why would you still want the SS to be paid derivation?

Because the licenses would be owned by companies paying taxes to FG.

WE WANT OUR SONS TO OWN IT STILL

WE WANT OUR SONS TO OWN IT STILL

But the companies will be owned by ur sons right? Why can't ur sons use the profits from ur land to develop ur land. Am I missing something here? Must the FG still provide extra money to develop ur land?

You are actually confusing me now? Is it that you do not want the SS to pay taxes to the FG or you feel the revenue these oil companies make is not enough to develop the SS hence the need for more money. Are u just simply being greedy?

Thank you your evidence. A lot has gone wrong due to misinformation and misappropriation of priorities. I like it when someone is making a claim that is verified, because may have being dragged to battle and callous actions due to un guided or misinformation.

Thanks.

Election is over, we have to move on

@Barcanista, I've moved on, if you come across opportunities for your hommie kindly bring it on.

My observation after this election so far is astonishing; there have being no bomb blast and maiming of innocent people by some unguarded miscreants in the northern part of this country. I hope when a candidates from the south east, south west or south south wins 2019 presidential election, there won't be treats of bamboos and monkeys blood being spilled on the streets?
