He initiated and helped IYC draft their long standing agenda. "Resource control and Self Determination By Every Means Necessary". which led to the armed struggles. ..

That Agenda gave IYC a sense of direction at a time when the furore and ginger of the Kaiama declaration has almost died down.

I'm surprised Barcanista doesn't know all these

barcanista: Well because of being our brother, I have refrained myself from posting this but for education sake let me do in...


Was Asari said to be the first Prez of IYC? Yes in 2004
Did he remain with IYC? No.. He splitted to be a political tool and formed the Niger Delta People's Volunteer Force NDPVF!

Did Ijaw youths took NDPVF serious? Absolutely no, save his criminal frineds!

Why did he split? Let me throw it to the "igbos" that feels they know more than the locals...


What is the IYC stand and Ijaw nation stance on Biafra?

barcanista: To all that are interested to know the Ijaw position on Biafra thingy... And some of the things that transpired, read carefully this article...

supporter of APC refugee, only the son of daft mugu that your useless father is, will come online to belittle the great Goodluck Ebele Jonathan. We know you were born a slave by your daft nomadic father and we are determined to keep you, your daft father, slaves for another 4 years. That's if boko haram does not cut off your blokos and your head before then. Devil sandpaper your face

Demdem:

Fool here are the facts.........
Ur fathers are cursed.......checked.
Ur lineage sees Jonathan has their god.......checked
Even in his daft state, Jonathan is far better than whatever ur lineage cab give........checked
Ur seeds have been mandated to worship Jonathan...........checked.
Jonathan legacy so far which is the death of the innocent will surely sweep ur lineage away. U bastards are a disservice to the human race.

EasternLeopard:

Where were you

At least we heard the name Asari


Pls post your pics so that we can accord you your audience.

Mogidi:

If I were you I'd spit on Barcanista as well, dude deserves all the spits he gets.

Demdem:

Fool, are u even aware that this is an anonymous site? We are talking about public figures here and asking demdem where he was and provide his pictures. U sound really daft. Why don't u post ur mothers pictures first.
What a very foolish demand from u after equating Asari to Dora.

obayaya:

Get your facts right!!! Asari wasn't the first president of IYC. He was the first vice president. He became president in 2001.

NDPVF was formed because of IYC's "Resource control and Self Determination By Every Means Necessary" agenda.

NDPVF fell out with another armed group, Ateke's NDV. When the federal government intervened, they took side with NDV against NDPVF.

Why will FG support Ateke? who is the political tool? Your guess is as good as mine.

Barcanista!!! You are not well versed in the happenings amongst your kinsmen. Maybe due to the fact that you've been hiding away in Lagos for so long.

Asari may be a lot of things. But he's respected amongst his kinsmen, the Ijaws. He's the loudest Ijaw voice out there since Isaac boro.



What the _Fuck is IPA? Who are they?

That article is a joke filled with conjecture.

We'll talk about the article some other time.

Good morning

EasternLeopard:

You regard Asari as nobody

But he was bold enough to come to the public to say his mind

Am challenging you to use this cheap medium to make your voice heard

barcanista: "Let us make absolutely clear that today the resource control struggle is perceived to be a struggle of the South-South but in reality it is the struggle of the Ijawman, its resources, lands and rivers and its existence as a tribe. This is because the crisis and the killings are happening in Ijawland and no other place in the South-South. It is at the point whereby the Federal Government wants reconciliation or there is a little compensation or payment, that you will see the rest tribes surfacing themselves as part of the struggle. It is also in Ijawland that soldiers are presently stationed in the South-South and killing our people."
the Ijaw struggle has neva 4 once been "the presidency" but Resource Control

barcanista: I don't av tym for comparism...we outclass you in everyform!

We don't shield criminals like you....we make them face d law

We don't shield ritualists like you do cos we barely have any.

We don't "chest beat" cos we are focused on the making of a formidable and viable Ijaw nation!

We don't compare with others like you do because WE MIND our BUSINESS!

Demdem:

Having appreciated these facts, can u then highlight specific steps including presidential maneuvering Jonathan being a core ijaw man taken in ensuring that resources control is achieved?
Obj, a non ijaw ingeniously gave from 0 to 13%.

lyntiffany: Your seriously under the highness of weed . Drop it now before it condemns your brain the way The Germans condemned Brazil.

barcanista: A man on crack is better than a criminal genetic blood that your fathers passed to you!

lyntiffany: Your brain is rapidly degenerating am not surprised the last time I check it was struck by hurricane Katrina. OGOGORO GENETIC BLOOD.

lyntiffany: Exactly my thought also, something is wrong with the young man. Looking for a word to qualify it on my medical dictionary. Brb

barcanista: I don't exchange words with kids!

Go call your canibal of a fada whose awaiting hanging in Singapore for drug peddling

Demdem:

Goon, show me where I stated Asari was nobody.
I said he is a criminal..........case closed.
After the patriots had already come out and Nigerians protesting every where, wasn't it when Asari found his voice? All through that period, the fool was busy enlarging his business outside the country.
Check my past posts if u aren't lazy and see for ursef demdem position on this site during the debacle.
This isn't boasting on my part but verifiable facts.
The only cheap and nauseating talk is from u telling us here that Asari was at the forefront when Turai was persecuting Jonathan.
The fool was no where to be found.

EasternLeopard:


You denied the role of Dora Akunyili

Iriruaga100: I share different political ideology with barcanista but this topic is very educative. If the igbos are conversant with history nd read their history books very well, they will understand that the ijaws lead by adaka boro nd other miniority tribes in ND supported biafra but ojukwu refuged to accord them equal right in biafra. Adaka boro asked ojukwu what will his people gain in biafra? Ojukwu said, a miniority in nigeria will continue to be miniority in biafra. Adaka boro pulled out nd supported nigeria. In today reality, the ijaws, urhobos, itsekiris, ogonis, efik, ibibios nd the edos will never be part of biafra, becos we are fighting for true federalism. Talking about 2015... Jonathan did nt win 2011 because he got vote frm the east nd south only, he won because people from north nd west voted for him. If he want to contest come 2015 he would need vote frm the north nd west nd not just south n east alone for him to be president. Thanks.

barcanista: honestly, Dr. Jonathan Ebelemi Goodluck though a worthy Ijaw Son, has never for once been at the Ijaw Struggle nay Resource control. The Izon Spirit is not to manipulate the system but for us to have all ethnic nationalities sit down and discuss our future- This is where Soverign National Conference comes in and has been the position of Major Adaka Boro! In 99, Alams an Ijaw man and the only Ijaw Gov used his position to advocate for the SNC and Resource control. He was very vocal and fell out with the Obj's Regime. Yes he was Corrupt and I supported his punishment/impeachment but what happened when His Deputy, an Ijawman in the person of Jonathan took over? The agitation died down. Jonathan was compensated with the VP slot. Not because of his antecedents as performer but because he is Ijaw and they feel need to end d militancy of MEND using Jona to pacify the Ijaws- but was it our demand? NO!
However, we were happy that our Son has rose to prominence, hoping that he will use his good office to promote our course. But did he? NO...he never mentioned it because he was privileged. (This is MEND's Major grouse with him). His opening speech in 2007 Boro day was seen as selfish rather than patriotic to the Ijaw nation. But he's our brother and we must support him.

The proposed "Amnesty" was to "settle" the boys rather than targeting the Youths. I see many propaganda on how it has affected Ijaw Youths and I ask..."Which of the Ijaw?"

Jonathan risr to the No 1 seat caused jubilation, "alas its our time to push for our demands" so we echoed. But did he make any move? No!

We expected an SNC he opted for a Confab similar to Obj's. Has the major issues been resolved? No!

Honestly, Jonathan's interest is parallel to Ijaws Interest(yearnings) as at today. Yes, it is true that our people still support him because he's our blood and we are still hoping that he will reason well.

The question is: are his policies in tandem with Ijaws yearnings as at today "NO" is the answer!

Demdem:

Highly sensible, reasonable and balance position.
IMO, i dont think Jonathan have what it takes to ensure true federalism. He is even against SNC but promotes the [b]continuation of the status quo.
My fear now is now that a ss man is in charge, nothing is being done in this regard, is it when we have an aboki in charge (of cos very soon it will be their turn after more than 13yrs of south presidency as against 3 from north since 1999) that we should expect an SNC.
Even the current national confab waste, the fool doesn't even know what will become of it. [/b]

barcanista:


Igbos keep re-canting Asari statement but forget that HIS views on Biafra has always been his views and NOT Ijaw views...because of his maternal Igbo link.
His granny had to be kicked out of the Kalabari throne, his family NEVER benefited from the properties declared abandoned because they "WORKED" against the Ijaw Interest! His own relatives moved against his family and it was clear in his STATEMENT that Ijaws fought against the Igbos during the War. That Asari is allowed to Speak today is because we see all Ijaw blood as brothers and ijaws are very forgiving but not forgetting. I can vouch that no member of Asari lineage can assume the Royalty stool in Kalabari Kingdom. His views, history and position on Igbo does not represent Ijaw nation... Neither IYC nor INC shares his view.

Asari nor his Father thru his grandfather has never been the voice of the Ijaw nation NOR any member of his immediate family

barcanista:
basta@rd son... At no time DID I question Jonathan's Ijaw loyalty BUT his style of Governance. Stop Whipping cheap sentiment. Jonathan's Interest is NOT synonymous to Ijaw's Interest . The Presidency is ONLY a bonus as it is NOT part of our agitation at anytime.
You Idiot should have Known that Asari made those statements himself... He has always been seen with same eye people in Kalabari saw his Grandfather(who was forced to quit the throne for working against Ijaws). He(Asari) has ALWAYS been PRo-Biafra right from the days of His Grandfather to his father. My Father worked as a Boy Scout for Nigeria Military in Okrika Kingdom like most of our Young men then. My Grandfather fought Against the Biafrans on Okrika Soil independently along with other Warriors. Similar scenario played in Kalabari, Nembe, Brass and other Ijaw Kingdoms and beyond to Ogoni.

Asari is respected for being an "Ijaw" Son and brother but... When the History of Ijaw nation is to be told, His Grandfather and father belong to the negative side of Ijaw History... Aside that, he's a media warlord leading his criminal gang and sponsored by politicians that has little or no bearing.
