Thanks dearpreye, ecclesiastes said in much wisdom comes grief. The education of the south which has brought us knowledge has also brought us grief. We 'intellectually' criticize our own and condemn them just like tonyebarcanista is doing but the hausa-fulani will never do that! How many times has a northerner criticised IBB for the N6 billions gulf war windfall? How many northerner has criticised buhari for the N2.8 billion missing money in 1978? Even bohari does not call bokoharam terrorist but insurgents! Yet we always tear down our own! Imagine barcanista said the fact that the danjumas and dantatas own the oil wells in the ND is not his problem but if tompolo tries to own any then he is a criminal! Is that not betrayal of one's heritage!

dearpreye:


I won't stop at supporting any people who want to decide their fate and chart their own destiny. It's never in my nature to mock and abuse those who feel they can get a better package in their own system.....its a fundamental human right enshrined in the UN charters. ..you know these things, brother. .....


When are we going to have our own referendum? You amuse me to no ends.....stand for your people.....stop strengthening the arms of those who seek to kill yours deploying whatever guise or ploy...

I don't patronise anyone; I just have an arrogance towards the truth. You need to stand for something. Your recent messages are confusing me. .....I don't even know who you are.....seriously.....

My community and other Izon villages have always been denigrated be the same ungrateful Nigerian government using different excuses. ....but I will NEVER blame any ND person who uses whatever means available to them to secure their wealth and fortunes.

If the FG wants to drop the bombs let them drop them. Our present situation as a people is just a step above the grave. My greatest loyalty is to the Izon people and I will forever support Tompolo and others.

Learn to make a stand on something. It's even better to be convinced about an evil stance than be a pendulum.

TonyeBarcanista:
On behalf of Ijaw nation, I condemn in strong terms the act of economic sabotage perpetrated by coward criminal elements. I plead with our Itsekiri brothers to join hands with the Ijaws and help the government to cleanse the Niger Delta of criminals.

The Nigeria government should ensure that they beam their searchlight on the economic saboteurs and their sponsors and treat them like common criminals without any option of negotiation. However, they should know that the good people of Ijaw are loyal citizens that are not in support of criminal act.

Take your plea out of Nairaland and to the creeks. The militants are not nairlanders

I thought I was the only one that noticed that judging from his past posts

Nothing is impossible bruv . . . . . Are you shocked, see the way Ayiri the Itsekiri militant cum billionaire cross carpeted to the APC as soon as Buhari won . .. . .

Troops storm militants’ den, foil attack on more facilities

Tompolo

A combined military task force on Sunday launched a manhunt for Chief Government Ekpemupolo (also known as Tompolo), his associates and other believed to be masterminds of attacks on crude production and export from the Warri area of Delta State.

It was gathered that at least one suspect was arrested in connection with the attacks.

The gang had hit major gas and crude oil trunk lines, including the major Escravos-Warri-Lagos-Abuja gas trunk line of the Nigerian Gas Company and several platforms of oil multinationals operating in the region.

Plans to hit more oil facilities, including the Opumami location of Con Oil Limited, on Sunday morning were foiled by the security operatives.

The latest violence in the region began after a Federal High Court issued an arrest order on Tompolo who failed to appear in court for trial on a N34bn fraud.

RE - AYIRI SET TO STIR FRESH IJAW/ITSEKIRI CRISES

BY: OLUEH EDDY

It is no longer news that the federal government under the leadership of President Muhammadu Buhari is currently through the EFCC investigating alleged fraud of the last administration led by ex-president, Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, amongst which is the NIMASA 13 billion naira land acquisition fraud.

Affected in the alleged fraud were EX-NIMASA director general, Mr Patrick Ziakede Akpobolokemi, Tompolo's company, Global West Vessel Specialist Limited, Odimixi Electricals Limited, Kime Engozu, Bolobere & Estate Limited, Rex Elem, Destre Consult Limited, Gregory Mbonu and Captain Warredi Enisuoh.

It will interest the general public to know that if not all, almost the aforementioned names/companies belongs to our Ijaw neighbors including Chief Government Ekpemupolo aka Tompolo

Be as it may, while the co-accused, including the former director general of the Nigeria Maritime Administration and Safety Agency (NIMASA) Mr Patrick Ziakede Akpobolokemi, were present in court to answer questions bordering on the transaction, ONLY the ex-militant, Tompolo failed to appear.

It is therefore illogical for the Ijaw Pride Group as published by Gbaramatu Voice Group to conclude that Chief Ayiri Emami has concluded arrangements with the National Security Adviser to invade Gbaramatu and other Ijaw communities.

Permit me to therefore ask, when has Chief Ayiri Emami become the federal government, the EFCC and the court? When has the Itsekiri's becomes the law court that have invited the ex-militant, when has the Itsekiri's becomes the EFCC that is investigating the said transaction?

I make bold to state that Chief Ayiri Emami is NOT and CANNOT be president Muhammadu Buhari and the EFCC that has since declared the ex-militant, Tompolo wanted.

The Itsekiri's as a people are peace loving as demonstrated by the immediate past governor of Delta State, Dr Emmanuel Ewetan Uduaghan, a detribalized Deltan. A man who gave up his political aspirations in order to maintain the prevailing peace that we enjoyed today.

In case our neighbors, the Ijaws forgot so soon, the Itsekiri's supported and voted massively for Sen James Manager at the expense of their very own son to maintain peace, brotherhood and togetherness.

Despite the pains/injustices inflicted on the Itsekiri's by the Ijaws and the last administration led by ex-president Goodluck Ebele Jonathan, the Itsekiri's supported and voted massively for his failed 2015 presidential election, some of us still defend the ex-president till date.

Instead of threatening and sounding the drums of war, the Ijaws should treat the Itsekiri's with respect and learn to live with the Itsekiri's as brothers, see the Itsekiri's as partners in progress, having lived together for decades as brethren and neighbors sharing the same environmental degradation.

As earlier stated though we are peace loving people, we are not mindful of the threat of war and the acquisition of war ships and other weaponry in the name of pipe line surveillance and illegal bunkering activities. We shall employ all Arsenals available to protect our people and territories.

I make bold to state that the Itsekiri's nor Chief Ayiri Emami do not have any issue or problem with the Ijaw people.

I therefore finally submits that the Ijaw Pride Group should advised the ex-militant, Chief Government Ekpemupolo to as a matter of urgency submit himself to the court and make his case. However, should the Ijaw Pride Group consider it not in the interest of their son to submit himself then, the Ijaw Pride Group should channel their resources and threat of war towards the federal government led by President Muhammadu Buhari, the EFCC and the court but leave the Itsekiri's and her people alone to live in peace.

Let's embrace peace for the well being of our people.

A peaceful Delta, it is POSSIBLE

I remain

Men of no principle!

GANJAFARMER:
N/B : For those overzealous Yorubas and Northerners that are calling for the bombing of the creeks and the Niger Delta people to enable you to continue funding your fake development and life style built on the blood of the Niger Deltans - Here is the news for you , If Buhari drops any bomb on innocent Niger Delta villagers ,we will bunker that oil ,sell it cheap and give enough money ,arms and ammunition to Boko Haram and every criminal group to bomb the North, r@pe your women and they will have enough money until they will hit Lagos and hit very very hard.

This is the hate that hate will produce.

While you have every right to be agitated about the marginalisation of the NigerDelta always remember chest beating won't lead you anywhere. You forefathers never got anywhere with it I do not see how far you can go with it. War is more than buying bombs n blowing it up like knockout. Your should learn from boko haram in the end you'd only end up causing yourself / land more harm.

The bandits targeted your area for reasons we all know, and will seek refuge right there for the same purpose. Smoke them out of your communities into where bombs can safely rain on them. Snitch on the bigwigs among them and point to their hideouts and let the army do its job. Form intelligence sharing groups to lead soldiers to where the terrorists are. More POWER to you Itsekiris!

While you are here hailing Tompolo, the Nigerian army has invaded Gbaramatu breaking into houses of EX militants believe to be involved in the bombing. refugee from Gbaramatu areas are heading to Sapele, warri, ughelli to hide.

the ss people must avoid actions and in-actions that may lead to anything that would be a setback to our common interest as a geopolitical zone.
When other political zones are consolidating their efforts to become a formidable power block,were are here creation ethnic divisions by 'show of supremacy',its a big shame.


I use dis opportunity to call on all ss youths to condem dis attacks. My prayer is dat it does not escalate further.

IPOBians are permanently battered emotionally and psychologically since #Barcanista spotted their craft and beat them in their own game. They are always pained to the marrow whenever barcanista is showed love by others... Kai, IPOBians. This pain has graduated to obsession that they receive alert on their phone whenever a thing or two is said of Barca. Those nincompoops have refused to learn that you can't intimidate barca. They are lucky that I have no time to respond to fools. Some of these Ipobians actually think that they are my "pollar" forgeting that there are thousands of people(if not millions) across party divide that love me.


Hating Barca is a complete waste of time. No be me do am, na God...

The usual sneaky attempts by agent provocateurs to achieve their needed divide and rule are failing.
I sincerely suggest that the bait be refused, for the end game is EMERGENCY RULE in the OIL RICH DELTA; and guess who gains ?
That geopolitical region will then never ever have the mouth or means to ever decide again what, where and how things affect it, if its peoples start blaming each other. THIS SHOULDN'T be allowed at all.

Money laundering? No. But sanction breaches? Yes.

Last year, Fidelity Bank was heavily fined that the shareholders warned the management. Also First Bank and UBA were fined for breaches in non remittance of TSA. The banks are always sanctioned even though they try to hide it from their books

On money laundering, FCMB and Fidelity Bank were suspended and I think fined (not sure though)

Yes, I read about the TSA fines but I'm just hearing for the first time that CBN took action against FCMB and Fidelity.

If the regulators play their part effectively with the banks kept on their toes by not just on-boarding any customer that knocks on their door and also carrying out a review of existing customers and exiting all the dodgy ones, I think it will reduce the level of corruption seen in nigeria.
