This time around, this one is for real. Although a large part of Portharcourt remains calm, it has been confirmed that ''political thugs'' are flexing muscles with ''military personel'' at the Moscow Road axis of PH. There's sporadic gunshot exchange between those two, and those who love their lives should avoid the said areas.

hun! This 1 don pass be careful oh. I'm stuck in my office with no way to go home. Prevention is better than cure.
What is the government really doing about this thing sef? Imagine militray people blocking Azikwe Road (from Allied Home Appliances) so nobody can get close to government house. What happens to the peeps of Rivers State?

Please I suggest everyone should call whoever they know and tell them to be carefull. Its an awfull shame that things have deteriorated to that level. We, as Nigerians, should be very ashamed of ourselves. This is the image the outside world sees of us, and yet we are shocked when they think of us as animals.  |

@ dramanelly, this things do happen even in advance countries and the militants are just taking advantage of the FG's gently approach to the situation, i believe if the govt give the go ahead the military would wipe them out in les than 3 days. ask the people in odi or zaki biam they will tell you. for those in the crisis area i think the best thing you guys can do if u want ur normal lives back is to provide the authorities with info on militant movements and activities they would know what to do about it. you should know that they are not magicians and need info frm the public to act. thats were advanced countries differ frm naija they support their security forces unlike the average nigerian.  |

it is really a sad situation. I was watching the news the other day and a middle-aged man described port harcourt as fast becoming the "BAGHDAD OF NIGERIA[/b]". I think its quite an apt descriptiion which must not be allowed to stick.
Sometilmes i wonder why we cannot organise ourselves, lots of unanswered questions, Well, i hope and pray that peace returns to the area real quick.

http://www.businessdayonline.com/?c=44&a=15456Relative calm returned to Port Harcourt city on Monday after the weekend bloodbath that claimed the lives of more that 30 people. However, insider accounts about the mayhem suggest that it may have been a case of the government of Rivers state shooting itself on the leg.

DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THE PBANKS IN ph ARE WORKING WITH THE SITUATION?
i read from the dailies that some banks at Aba Road have closed for business and some of the oil companies are using military men instead of police to ensure strong security.
I wonder when this melharm will end in port harcourt.

Only God can deliver us from this menace. Men I remember when i was a kid in ph, that place was nice, quiet no trouble. Then these yeye dey gbam dey well cult boys started their trouble in Diobu and Town areas, now it has spread. May God protect my peeps all over abeg. And pray that this menace stops. All these thugs, make they carry their wahala go another place for their head.
And if you are a thug/wahala boy reading this, your own is coming soon.

So glad i left Ph before all this mayham started.Used to live around uzuboko junction,along Abuloma road.And even then,communal clashed especially that of Abuloma and Ukuru community would not allow one peace of mind not to talk of when Amadi-Ama decide to starts their own.Now the d mayham is from another dimension.When wil all this end??
For every innocent life in the troubled zones,I pray the lord their souls to protect.

What really is happening? Now that some solders have been killed, it may get bloodier because the solders may want to retaliate. I still wonder about the source of the boldness of the thugs/militants.
