Niger Delta Militant
Angered over the spate of attack by the Boko Haram sect in the North the Niger Delta Liberation Force, NDLF, has demanded for a Republic of Niger Delta urging President Goodluck Jonathan to as a matter of urgency, convene a sovereign national conference, SNC.

The SNC, the group said will afford Nigerians the opportunity to discuss and possibly give birth to the Republic of Niger Delta, using the Southern Sudan example, where the people met and agreed on the formation of a new nation, South Sudan Republic, without spilling blood.

Spokesman of the militant group, “Captain” Mark Anthony, in a statement, noted that Nigeria's problem was political and what was needed to resolve it was a political solution, involving a roundtable conference of all the ethnic nationalities in the entity called Nigeria.

He said: “In SNC, every ethnic nationality shall come forward through a delegation and put up a referendum for the interest of every geo-political region. The referendum shall determine the continued existence or separation of the contraption called Nigeria. Nigeria is a creation of falsehood and it is standing on a keg of gun powder being mismanaged by former military dictators.

“We use this medium to hail great men like Chief Odumegwu Ojukwu, late Major Isaac Boro, Ken Saro-Wiwa and their followers, as well as all freedom fighters who had paid the supreme price with their lives for Biafra and Niger Delta, for their courage and patriotism. These great men were men of vision who saw the type of fake Nigeria left behind for us by the British imperialists.

“We also hail the people of the new South Sudan nation for their determination and doggedness. We the people of Niger Delta shall one day join the world to celebrate Niger Delta Republic. Nobody should deceive himself and play politics with our call for splitting Nigeria into segments for the interest of every geo-political region,” he added.

Pipe dream!

When Ojukwu made the move way back then, your so-called heroes sabotaged his effort.

When you started you agitation, you once again sold ur birth right in the name of amnesty

You will remain till the oil in your region is milked to the last drop, your environment destroyed and you'll be dumped by the same Nigeria you passionately supported during the Biafra struggle.

Good morning to you all!

well its one one already so its time to move on but we dont need to break up totally ,a sovereign national conference can address our problems however some politicians will never want that to happen cause it will only prove ojukwu was indeed foresighted, they rather watch their land burn than see it happen.

I doubt any politician who is there for his/her people will be against a break up or SNC,

You said it is time to move forward yet you think some people are still too egotistical to do so and your conviction is based on the past too. You are also a relic of the past bash man!!

No one wanted to be in Nigeria really including Boko Haram,

Agreed ! Every region, tribe or ethnic groups has one grudge or the other against each other, that is why true love and peace will never exist in this country!
