I have been observing the recent events in the Niger-delta where the resurgence of hostilities by the niger-delta militants have seen the Nigeria oil production capacity dip by 800,000 barrels per day.

In view of the peace that emanated from the region,it is obvious that the resurgence of this menace stems from the mistrust of the current administration by these militants.

GEJ was trusted by these militants to effectively utilize the proceeds from the sale of crude oil for national development unlike Buhari who is suspected of arming his fulani herdsmen to wreck havoc on southern and middle belt sections of the country.

Also from the utterances of Buhari that he would use the resources of the country to take care of those who voted 97% for him while others who voted just 5% for him would be left to suffer did not help matters.

Buhari needs as a matter of urgency to apologize to the Niger-delta for these shameless utterances and also cease the persecution of poltical opponents to ensure national reconciliation

Another angle will be that some of this militants are not really from the niger-delta but rather from angola,no wonder angola is now Africa's no 1 oil producing nation

BIAFRA or NIGERIA MEANS POVERTY WITHOUT SOUTH SOUTH OIL


The current activity of Niger Delta Avengers have clearly proven that the North or West don't care if South east leave Nigeria. All the one Nigeria supporters cares about is South South oil.

Also BIAFRA agitators don't want BIAFRA without South South oil. Give them South East alone Biafra, they will prefer to remain in Nigeria than form a country that is south east alone.

Nigeria govt was never shakened or moved with all the massive protest for Biafra in the south east. Nigeria Economy was not moved or shaken with all the protest in Aba, Onitcha etc in South east. This clearly shows south east are not very important economically in Nigeria. They are mostly into distribution of goods and not creation of wealth. Importation of foreign goods and goods distribution does little to income of the federation. They rather deplete the reserve than add to the reserve of the country.

But a small group in Niger delta who have not even enjoyed large support from Niger Delta people is already making Nigeria bleed.
Imagine when Niger Delta people decide to protest for Niger delta republic the way South east people have been protesting for Biafra?

This clearly shows only South South is feeding this country Nigeria.

North, South East and South west are mostly parasite who contribute very little to Nigeria and take much.

So when Igbo Shout Biafra it simply means they want to cut off North and Yoruba so dat they become the only parasite to South South.
When North Shout one Nigeria it means they want to be part of the parasite.

My position: It is very unfair for south south alone to be feeding the whole country. With the other 5 geopolitical zone contributing little.
All the other five regions (NE, NW, NC, SW and SE) must contribute their share to the Nigeria state.
If the other five region fail to do this, I clearly support Niger Delta Republic with south south alone.
Thus if Nigeria wont work, let:

North West and North East form Islamic Republic
North Central form Middle Niger Republic
South East Form Biafra
South West form Odua Republic
South South form Niger delta Republic.

This is the best solution to this country with 5 parasite feeding on one 1 prey.

It is unfair and evil.
