Hmmm....Arial bombardment....100 suspected militants killed....hmmm....they not sure who they bombed who they killed...but we are here clapping. I'll wait on the reports coming from the scene.

They wont listen to you but rather insult you . When the real casualty and damage figures are released then maybe they will know who has been saying the truth.

Tenkobos:
The op mentioned how the army killed about 100 militants and I was wondering why they haven't done that to the herdsmen that are destroying Benue.

herds men are killing in virtually every part of Nigeria, so can I safely say more than two-thirds of Nigeria is not in Nigeria?

HungerBAD:
I mean, this is a good move by the OPC.

The plan of the OPC is to protect, and not destroy their land. The Militants in the Niger Delta, are destroying their own lands, and his is why i support this move by the OPC.

So let us talk about these militants.

The Militants in the West are a product of two worlds. They are from Ondo State, which is in the West. But, they are the Ijaws and the Itsekiri from Ondo State, and these guys are not Yoruba's, but pure Niger Deltans, who by accident of wrongful map drawing, find themselves in the Western part of Nigeria.

A typical example is Oritsefemi the Musician, who is an Itsekiri, but from Ondo State.

So, we can safely say the militants hitting the Western part of Nigeria are actually Westerners, and so the OPC should be ready to fight against their own brothers.

Lastly, kudos goes to the Nigerian Military for the flushing out,bombing and killing of these militants.

do u want to change oritsefemi's state nawa for u he is from delta joor wen did itskekiri become part of ondo state get ur facts rite

KAYD007:

So, you want a nigerian journalist to go into ground zero to take confirmation pictures while bullets and bombs are flying over head?? Why not call in Richard quest of CNN to roll in the cameras?

or amanpor

Marvelous101:

LeFreakSoChic:

Omo dudu to rewa

Tele mi ka lo sun

Nigerian Army used the word Vandals in this report, buh fifth columnists keep shouting ND/ijaw militants.

FEMI is Delta..not Ondo....

This is exactly what I have been saying. But it seems some people see this issue as a Yoruba vs ijaw issue. For the past 4 days aerial bombardment has been going on and many still see it as a good sign

kikake:
Some people may not even understand what is going on now in this throwing bombs and firing into areas where civilians are mixed with militants.

Some groups in Nigeria want to repeat in the south of Nigeria the type of human destruction and economic insecurity done in northern Nigeria with Boko Haram fight.

Not supporting this set of militants killing innocent civilians in the south west region, but the whole issue of militancy arose from decades of northern Nigeria's refusal of political reforms in Nigeria.

The present throwing of bombs into areas where civilians are mixed with militants in the southwest is just a rehearsal for what's to come to the south south, and in extension, the south east.

If Nigeria is truly a nation, no military officer can contemplate throwing bombs and firing into areas where civilians are mixed with militants.

What you are implicitly saying is that they should be allowed to continue terrorising the people,yes?

That only happens when a GENERAL is in POWER.

Two fighter jets just took off again. more bombardment

mrsiso:

This is getting more serious than ppl are thinking but it seems the residents and ppl in that state are happy about it ,so no problem.

This is weird, The vast majority of the so called Militant attacks on Oil installations are in Delta,Bayelsa and Rivers state, teh FG never Bombed anywhere there rather are in dialogue with the Militants, and in the Sw they chose to bombard more than 5 communities and I can see some people from that region titillating just cos they do not live in such areas, who knows what the military are playing at or rather the FG,

Abeg how e take concern u facefront every of ur fellow terrorist evil militants colleagues in d bush creeks have been eradicated ur here talking thrash.which responsible humanbeing will build house deep inside the creek bushes away from civilization in lagos state.the only answer is criminals of ur kind.yoruba,s are not complaining so get sense and keep shut

I totally condemn the activities of these militants. However, hypocrisy is not good. Most of these guys commenting here are the first people to shout that "Gaddafi is very wicked and that he is killing his own people, Saddaem Housenni is bombing his own people in Iraq, Syrian president is killing his own people" ,etc.

My point is this:there are certain responsible ways to sniff out the lives of these militants or stop their violent activities without causing a collateral damage thereby putting the lives of the civilian population in high risk by sheer use of INTELLIGENCE GATHERING. We need to invest in this military technology. We can't solve a particular problem by creating another big monster. Unfortunately, this brazen bombardment will surely EMBOLDENED this militants and ultimately turning the southwest to a war zone in the near future. We can learn from the brazen killing of the boko haram leader and how that zone has been turned to a war zone. Military actions should always be the last OPTION.

Tenkobos:

Exactly my thought. No one throws boms at those herds men, no one has tried to locate their camps, no one has done anything to them. Even booHaram would be jealous of the treatment given to those herdsmen. This should show you that to get away with any crime, just pose as herdsmen.

modath:


It's not what i want , it's genuine curiousity ....The thread is about OPC and South west, you made mention of Benue that is nowhere near and has zero to do with SW... It's imperative to ask..

Benue suffered a similar fate in the hands of the herdsmen from Libya. And the Nigerian military didn't shoot even one stone with catapult. So obviously Benue state is probably in Libya or Central African Republic

Plz listen to the guys up there, they Said Yoruba's are not complaining, so let us wait a bit, maybe another figure will come out.I do not like this.

Brother, Open your ears to hear what he is saying. you should be concerned that the government sent in planes to bomb areas where civilians could be victims too. If they gather intelligence and split themselves into groups and raid the hideouts of those vandals, that would have been ideal.... our military men need to upgrade their undercover and criminal capture skills.

from his expression he is more concerned of the ethnic cleansing of certain group of people from his state ratehr than criminals which I think is sad though

I read through his post. He was clearly worried about the civilians who would be killed and tagged militants to cover the gross negligence and misconduct of the military. You should be sad for what Nigeria is turning into. Sad that if a man offends someone, the person enters his home/Village and Burns it down to the ground including his wife, kids and pet. That, is what is sad. Not the fact that someone states the error in the vengeful mans action.


I support 100% the eradication of crime and criminals. I just don't believe an innocent person should be considered collateral damage and unduly so. Better ways of doing things should be brought to the table.
