Henry Okah, leader of the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) fingered by Nigeria ’s Presidency to have been responsible for the Abuja Bomb Blast that killed 16 people has been re-arrested in South Africa by the police.

Henry Okah has been re-arrested after an alleged threat by Nigerian government to severe diplomatic ties with South Africa and possible reprisal attacks by angry Nigerians who reviled the ugly incident.Authorities in the government of South Africa says Henry Okah is expected to cooperate with security agencies by giving them more useful information on the bomb attack. Mr. Okah may likely be arraigned on monday on terrorism charges but Tompolo, ex-MEND Commander, others condemn Nigeria’s October 1 bomb attack

An eyewitness had earlier alleged that he saw two Arab men on a power bike set off the bombs.

MEND, said that it intended to bomb the event in an electronic release issued by its spokesman, Jomo Gbomo. The source explained that MEND had never involved Arabs in its struggle in the Niger Delta and should not have contacted them to bomb the event celebrating the nation’s anniversary.

The militant group, which demanded a fairer distribution of the nation’s natural resources derivable from the oil-rich but strife-torn Niger Delta says there was “nothing worth celebrating after 50 years of failure”.

The incident which is similar to a car bomb allegedly by MEND at a Niger Delta stakeholders meeting early this year in Warri ha caused worry as to who is actually responsible for the attack.

South African police had invaded the Johannesburg home of Henry Okah, leader of the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) early on Friday, apparently acting on the request of the Nigerian authorities who claimed that Mr. Okah was stockpiling weapons and re-arming fighters in the volatile Niger Delta region of Nigeria .

In 2008, Mr. Okah, who had been living in South Africa , was arrested in Angola by the Angolan authorities for alleged gun running.

He was deported to Nigeria where he was held in solitary confinement and secretly tried before a Federal High Court in Jos, charged with 62 counts of terrorism, illegal possession of weapons and treason amongst other capital crimes. But in 2009, the government entered into an amnesty deal with his group and several other Niger Delta militant groups and released him.

Okah returned to live in South Africa except for a brief trip to Nigeria to attend a meeting with the late Nigerian leader, Umaru Yar’adua during the Amnesty process, http://questionmarkmag.com/2010/10/henry-okah-ibb-and-dokpesi-responsible-for-october-1-bombing-and-president-accused-of-conspiracy/
