Lukman Not Responsible For Insecurity In Niger Delta — Aduwo Print E-mail

A human rights activitist and the national coordinator of the Rights Monitoring Group, Olufemi Aduwo, has asked governors in the Niger Delta to take responsibility for the security failure in the region, making it unsafe for students and a petroleum university.

Speaking to leaders, Aduwo said the minister of Petroleum, Dr. Rilwanu Lukman was blameless, thus the governors calling for his head were being unfair. He said; "The College of Petroleum Studies, Kaduna was established in 1995 to train NNPC senior management staff. In 2005, former President Olusegun Obasanjo approved the upgrading of the institute into a full university, so it is not the making of Lukan."

"Also, there is the Petroleum Training Institute, Effurun, Warri and the Federal University of Petroleum Resources, Effurun (FUPRE). FUPRE is a National University Commission — approved degree awarding university from the PTI with its own board and vice chancellor. So it is not true that the PTI has been relocated from Effurun to Kanduna", he said.

Aduwo said the reality was that there are two academic institutions (PTI&FUPRE) in Effurun with different managements that can be verified by anybody.

He said;" This incident will confirm that if peace cannot be attained in the Niger Delta, there is no way development will be attained. So these governors crying over spilt milk are being insincere to themselves. First of all, they must ensure there is peace in that area. Do we want to invest N14billion to establish a petroleum university in maybe Bayelsa where the lives of students there would be threatened and they would become victims of kidnappings on a daily basis? It does not make sense".

I strongly suspect the salt in salt lake city has found its way into your brain.

I don't know what you're on to but the man asserted valid and sensible points.


But of course, you guys are not into demanding accountability from your leaders, blame other peope is always the name of the game,

Yoruba in ND (and there are millions of them) should be getting ready for,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

Becos u dey america? No think say the 'kasala' no go reach u & ur family o !

The hypocrisy is galling

Tinubu finished Lagos, Yoruba did not hold him accountable
Fayose finished Ekiti, nothing spoil
Agagu finished Ondo, it was business as usual
Ladoja was the same in Oyo
Now Akala, Oni, Oyinlola and Gbenga are dancing the macabre dance, but Yoruba have not asked them to account for the monies
How come the story is different with ND?

Secondly, the claim that ND is not safe for a university is hogwash. Aren't there unis in ND? Have the students being killed any more than cultists kill peeople in Ago iwoye, UniLag, Futo, Unijos etc?

Is the north safer than the ND? The activities of Boko Haram and other anti foreigner islamic fundamentalists in the North say NO

You're fighting urself my friend. This may be a case of MS.

get a life !!!

Aduwo is telling y'all to go and castrate first ur traditional rulers that are ur major problems

Has Aduwo told that to Yoruba traditional rulers, including the Oni of Ife who welcomed Fani Kayode home after looting the federal treasury to the tune of billions? Or the Olowu of Owu who recently crowned Oluremi-Adiukwu Bakare with a chieftaincy title after wrecking one of the failed banks. How moronic!

anyone who has been to nigeria within the past 3years knows there is no tribalism- all tribes are corrupt but ibos abroad are still pointin and Blaming others

and is the YORUBA nation complaining of oppression like the Niger Deltans ?

u are the biggest slowpoke that ever lived

Niger Deltans are their own nemesis . . .

no apologies for telling the truth . . .I served there and I know what obtains there

Ok!So now you agree that nothing is linked to unchallenged corruption here since there is unchallenged corruption elsewhere. Atlas Cove bombing will be a child's play compared to what will come next. Let your ragtag OPC get ready.

mumu !

y'all would have urselves to blame if u try that rubbish in Lagos again !

havent Lagos and its indigenes given u enough support already . . .bunch of ingrates

When would Nigerians call a spade a spade

Who ensures peace in the state?
a. Nigerian Police
b. Nigerian Army
c. SSS
d. The courts
e. All of the above
f. None of the above

If you answered "e", you're correct. If you say, the governor, or "f", you'll fail.

So, why is this Aduwo man blaming the governors for not maintaining peace in their states, when all the above are controlled from Abuja?
This "human rights" activist is obviously a paid pieper for Lukman, because he makes no sense at all.

Please delete this waste of space by nues aweso, it's simply another shameless technique to waste band width, and suppress another person's thread.

Ode, your Governor is your chief security officer.


LAGOS has a population of almost 18 million 250 language speaking people from every corner of he country and the Gov' still managed to keep things and everybody in check.


It's called leadership, good governance and accountability, something the clowns and incompetent  leaders in the delta don't know shit about. Their only expertise is looting and stealing, 


Abeg shut with ya finger pointing syndrome,

Despite all your childish insults, you have not said who controls the army, police, and SSS.
The governor is chief security officer on paper, but the GOC has more power in terms calling the army.

Make una chill now? Wetin sef!

There is no quarrel between ND and Yoruba people. Rather, we should be uniting to fight the common problem of the South.

One odeku and one omoge each for:

Don't worry, the Feds go soon come to help you tie your shoes and brush your teeth.
