Militants Demand Release Of $1b For Niger Delta Development

AN ultimatum to release $1 billion from the Excess Crude Account for the Niger Delta region to tackle developmental challenges has been given to the federal government.

Reformed Niger Delta Avengers, a coalition of nine militant groups issued the ultimatum in an open letter written to President Muhammad Buhari.

They based their demand on the recent approval of the release of $1 billion to fight insurgency in the North East.

They threatened to resume hostilities on oil installation if the Federal Government fails to accede to their request.

Major General Johnmark Ezonbi, aka Obama, on behalf of the group said: “We demand our own share of the $1 billion from the Excess Crude Account for the development of the Niger Delta within four weeks.

“We will ensure that anything that stands on our way will be crushed without mercy. All foreign nationals are hereby advised to leave the region as all our unit commanders have put on red alert to resume operation zero oil production on the expiration of the four weeks ultimatum.

“The governors of the South -South will not be spared for being part of that decision to approve $1bn to combat insurgency, while our region suffers. The golden hen that lays the egg has nothing to show for what she gives.

“We want to warn the Federal Government not to take the current ceasefire, which the country is enjoying with the daily crude oil production of between 2.2 to 2.4million barrels of crude production amounting to billions of naira on daily basis for government and which has helped the country get out of recession for granted.

Dear Niger Deltans,
Looking at the changes happening in the world today, the future is very dark for you. My advice to you all is to forget oil and develop your human resources. It is too late to fight for resource control. That window of opportunity has been lost forever. In the coming years, your value to Nigeria will diminish and no one will listen to you. All you will be left with is polluted land and poverty.

I have no doubt all the nice gestures Buhari and his men have been showing towards the south is to help soften the resistance against huge projects about to be sited in favour of the north.
The ND is waking up gradually. I expect the SW and SE to follow suite.a

The money in the Excess Crude
Account, ECA, is from Niger Delta States,
Federal Government should provide such
similar support to the Niger Delta states, to tackle
militancy, kidnapping and other acts of
insecurity in the Niger Delta region. After all, d money is from Excess Crude Account(ECA) not Excess Groundnut
Account(EGA) or Excess Onion Account(EOA).

Biko... Let no Igbo man put mouth in this Niger Delta demand because they haven't supported Igbos for once.

Let them fight their fight alone. We helped their militants strengthened Niger Delta Avengers, and when it was time to support IPOB, they chickened out. Yeye people. FG never finish una yet.

Now that oil is still selling, why not tell the FG to use it and develop niger delta, is it until when all the well dried up that's when FG will decide to develop the region?
