The South-East Caucus of the All Progressives Congress (APC) has appealed to the Niger Delta Avengers (NDA) to sheathe their swords and give President Muhammadu Buhari more time to look into their demands.

Mr. Osita Okechukwu, spokesman of the Caucus, in a statement made available to DAILY POST said, “we are making this appeal taking into cognizance of the laudable projects President Buhari has charted and lined up for the Niger Delta region, like Clean-Up of Ogoniland, completion of East-West road and Calabar-Lagos Railways.

“Secondly, no sane Nigerian will pray forhg the reoccurrence of the ugly incident of Odi in 1999, Zaki Ibiam in 2000 and Gbaramatu in 2009; unwarranted ugly scenario which the Niger Delta Avengers are consciously simulating.

“It is our candid view that bombing of Forcados pipeline, Bonga Oil field, Chevron trunk lines and other Oil and Gas installations will neither facilitate the implementation of 2014 National Conference Report, funding of the Amnesty Program, nor the Clean-Up of the Niger Delta region.

“Therefore, escalation of bombings of the Niger Delta region is an ill-wind which blows no one good, not the least the good people of Niger Delta whom the Avengers claim to avenge their age long ills.

“Otherwise, may we honestly ask the Niger Delta Avengers, where they were, when our dear former president, His Excellency, Dr Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, GCFR, from 6 May, 2010 to 29 May, 2015 presided over Nigeria?

“In other words, were the Niger Delta Avengers in deep slumber when Jonathan for good five years failed to Clean-Up the Niger Delta, failed to complete East-West road, failed to review Oil Blocks, failed to Amend the Constitution to their taste, and failed to build the three Greenfield Refineries which he awarded?”

Okechukwu added that, “In actual fact, if there is anything to avenge, or anybody to blame, the barb should be directed at ex-president Jonathan and cohorts who criminally neglected the Niger Delta and by extension Nigeria via unconscionable planlessness and squandermania.

“Accordingly, we plead with our brothers, the Niger Delta Avengers for God’s sake, to do a deep re-think and graciously allow peace to reign; for our collective national interest and indeed to save the Niger Delta from ruins.”

Okay

Anybody speaking for APC in the East is the enemy of the Easterners.

i stand with the Avengers

This is a sheated threat that does not work.

“In other words, were the Niger Delta Avengers in deep slumber when Jonathan for good five years failed to Clean-Up the Niger Delta, failed to complete East-West road, failed to review Oil Blocks, failed to Amend the Constitution to their taste, and failed to build the three Greenfield Refineries which he awarded?


Fail to review oil blocks........hahaha





long live

Well said. One of the wisest guy from the east

I doubt if there's anything like APC in the south east especially Anambra.


The east actually hates that party called APC, even the rural dwellers doesn't want to hear anything 'A', not to talk of 'PC.

Lalasticlala, please this should hit front page.

Some people have been saying that Igbos are not concerned about the activities of the Avengers in the Niger Delta, that Igbos want the Niger Delta to burn.

No need to beg them, by the time the government uses the carrot and stick approach they will surrender voluntarily. Nobody can hold the Nigeria states to ransom !!!

Ok.
