B.Musa:


Please whoever is in the position to end this exchange of fire, do something before it degenerates into something else.

bgees:

i think both sides have to compromise. but that seems impossible. but if the military can gear up and crush these MEND people.

First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out - because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for the communists
and I did not speak out - because I was not a communist.

Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out - because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for me -
and by then there was no one left to speak out for me.

your so called military just recruited for nigeria our own home grown terrorists.  nigeria had easy victory over  biafra so they didnt learn.  if they knew they could defend oil like this why didnt they call OBJ's bluff and defend bakasi?

it took a few terrorist/ insurgents in IRA to nearly run britain dry in the 80s/ and 90s.  i wonder how you thinhk the NPF is going to work when these boys take this fight to main land nigeria.

AjaraEwuro:

When they take the fight to mainland Nigeria, you think everyone will watch? The women of Ekiti alone is enough to make the heads of the so called militants calabashes for drinking palmwine, better tell them not to take any fight to any mainland Nigeria, beause they will become meat for other people's dogs, they are threat to the area they operate from, they are no threat to every other places, they should be warned, what the fu ck, main land Nigeria is not as foolish as the militants are.

MrCrackles:

Whether the solution is in sight or out of it, i hope the issue ges resolved ASAP!

We need to move on

JJYOU:

if you know the nature of militarised insurgents, you will know how this will likely end. if they are real 10yrs from now nigeria will still be on high alert. you will be shocked there are political figures in your senate. reps manipulating these force you like to believe are mere thugs.  as i said before read the good old pasor word in europe. it still takes a few good men keeping quiet for this evil to continue  thriving.

AjaraEwuro:

Whatever - I have told you right here, warn them if you know them - dont let them take it to the mainland, they will be sorry.

The problem in the ND is that the people do not like the miilitants, however they hate the government more.

if it takes nigerian govt military power with helicopters and ship to battle the militants, i am afraid in the next decade they would be unable to control thier excesses.i think this is the best time the FG can do something serious about criminals disguising as freedom fighters. if not, i fear for another civil war only this time the 'ojukwu's are now well armed and trained militants

The pple agitating now are on their own. Too bad, the ND pple woke up too late.

Ibime:



You hit the nail on the head. If the FG want a change in this impasse, they must change the balance of these relationships.

ThinkRait:


I have a little problem with this quetion. It is a Nigerian problem, not a ND problem. What is going on is affecting Nigeria as a nation, the economy is gradually collapsing due to the falling oil production. The moment we start seeing this as a collective problem, then, and only then can we begin to find the solution.
