The group’s spokesman, Jomo Gbomo warned FIFA in the e-mail: “We will want to use this opportunity to advice FIFA to have a re-think about Nigeria hosting the under 17 world cup tournament at this time, as the safety of international players and visitors cannot be guaranteed due to the current unrest. “The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) can confirm that the Abiteye Jacket 1 & 11 facilities belonging to Chevron Nigeria Ltd were blown up with explosives minutes after the destruction of the Abiteye flow station at about 0200 Hrs today, Monday, June 15, 2009. Jacket 1 & 11 are currently on fire.” At the time of the report MEND said the bombed flow station and the Chevron facilities are on fire.

From Muslims rioting over Nigeria hosting the Miss World competition to this one. Nigerians should stop deceiving themselves and look at their nature and history from a new angle. |

Where in this article was suicide bombing in the North referenced? This type of misleading post should be sent to the trash can where it belongs. |
