Mosundi Demands Niger Delta Peoples Republic.

A group, Movement for the Survival of Niger Delta Indigenes (MOSUNDI) has commenced agitation for self-determination and independence from the present Nigeria.

MOSUNDI which in itself represents the six states of the Niger Delta (South-South) and part of the present Ondo State say its agitation for self-determination and independence is anchored on wicked marginalisation, deprivation and slavery by the major ethnic groups in Niger inspite of fact that Niger Delta produces the economic wealth of the nation.

In a letter to the Secretary-General of United Nations, Dr. Ban Ki-Moon and signed by its President, Prince Samuel Amaiwo, Chimezie Ezebunwo Timothy, Hon. Okan Obukohwo Okan and spokesman Godgift Edigbe, MOSUNDI seeks for a United Nations’ Supervised referendum for self-determination of the Niger Delta Peoples of Nigeria based on the UN charter, Articles, resolution, International Court of Justice decision and the Scotland referendum.
The agitation for the Niger Delta Peoples Republic according to the letter is predicated by political, Social-economic and religious discrimination of the Nigeria, Hausa and Yoruba against Niger Delta people.

It said, “from independence in 1960, the Niger Delta has been a well spring of Nigeria resource of revenue due to the huge oil deposit but the people have continued to wallow in abject poverty, environmental degradation due to economic, political, social and religious violence visited on them by the majority Hausa-Fulani/Yoruba’s Islamic elites, our people as a result of economic, political, social and religious violence visited on us, live in abject poverty without the minimum basic necessities of life, ie water, sanitation, healthcare, education.”

Oil exploitation and exploration and production in the Niger Delta has degraded our environment, devastated our fish stocks and our farmland, the principal sources and strength of micro-economic activities of our people health reducing life expectancy and also damaging physical infrastructure that the cost of living has sky rocketed beyond the reach of the people, of note in the oil industry which has created a ‘NEW NOVEAU RICH’ amongst the Hausa-Fulani/Yoruba elites that has wickedly and deliberately denied our people management jobs within an industry that is located at the heart of the Niger Delta Communities, the letter said.

The group noted that the people of the Niger Delta disputed the result of the 2006 population which was carried out by the Federal Government, reason being that the ploy was a measure to depopulate and reduce the number of people of the region which is being used in allocating resources in Nigeria.

It queried why Nigerian Federal authority did not use water resources or the inclusion of transportation of Petroleum through VAT in determining resource allocation.

It said the proposed Niger Delta Peoples Republic made up of Rivers,Bayelsa,Edo,Delta,Akwa ibom and Cross rivers state (south south geo-political zone) is economically viable and would not depend solely on international hand-out from other countries except with respect to contributory shared Debt of the Federation of Nigeria.

According to MOSUNDI, the proposed new country has would be politically stable, culturally compatible, geographical contiguous as well as religiously congruous.
It further accused the Hausa-Fulani and Yoruba of allotting 90% of the oil blocks in Niger Delta to themselves due to their vintage position at the central government level.

It further remarked that the agitation for a republic of the people of Niger Delta has become a long struggle starting from the era of Willincks Commission due to the lop-sidedness of Nigeria Federalism and massive greed of the majority ethnic Nationalities and insisted that peaceful separation is the key to lasting peace in what it termed the faulty federation called Nigeria.

Ah! After what happened to Ojukwu the last time anyone tried that, I'd be scared too if I were in their shoes. All these people are just jokers. Until their elite start agitating for secession, I won't take them seriously. As it stands these mushroom movements are being driven by touts.

As a Niger Deltan let me clarify that these groups agitating for self determination on our behalf are nothing but clowns pursuing their own purpose.

I've said it before and say it again, UN should be prepared to carry out more referendums because if they think Nigeria will just divide into two then they must be joking. If all are tired of one Nigeria, then we should be prepared to fragment.

Lets wait for other regions to seek self determination from the UN.

Niger Delta can have whatever republic it wishes as long as it does not include any iota of Igbo land. There will be Republic of Igbo land and peace will rain as long as the boundaries were culturally understood. We do not want to hear ethnic this or that in the new republics.

As a Niger deltan, we don't need our own country. I tell you we will not last a year before we breakup.

I have always maintained a stance that Nigeria cannot break in two or three or four, it will fragment worse case scenario.

If it is true, it is a great news to close the second quarter of 2015.

We prefer an all Igbo Biafra, with ND Republic side by side .
It will be easier for us to manage.

You see, the awareness is growing,

This is a good move. As long as a referendum be conducted in all Igbo speaking communities in Niger delta to decide between Republic of Alaigbo and Niger delta republic.

If all the groups in the Lower Niger work in synergy, we can successfully pull out of Nigeria to form independent republics of Alaigbo and Niger delta respectively.

Though I suspect the Ogonis would favour having an Independent country of their own. So that makes it 3 independent countries.

One of the greatest news to come this quarter.

Now, nobody will accuse Biafra of trying to annex Niger Delta.
When we reach the height of the tempo, synergy will be built.
and Nigeria will go down the drain.
