A splinter group, the Reformed Niger Delta Avengers, RNDA, has insisted that former president Goodluck Jonathan is the Grand Patron of the Niger Delta Avengers, NDA, stressing that his dissociation from them was because his participation, like every other sponsor and sympathizer named, was meant to be covert.

In a statement issued on Wednesday by its spokesperson, Cynthia Whuyte, and titled: ‘How NDA was formed’, RNDA stated that the NDA was constituted to counter the Movement for the Emancipation of Niger Delta, MEND, but stated that the new militant group has failed in this mission.

It stated that during the formation of the NDA, the name “‘Avengers’ came from the lips of Goodluck Jonathan”, threatening that it would reveal “more sordid details” if the ex-president further provokes them by denying his alleged involvement.

The statement reads, “After a clandestine meeting in Otuoke, Bayelsa state in 2014 between the Grand Patron and several unidentified persons ahead of the Presidential election campaign of 2015, it was agreed that the Okah brothers should be contacted to reach out to the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) to endorse former President Goodluck Jonathan, and work with the group of persons to ensure victory for the PDP and President Jonathan.

“At the time, because MEND was the suggested tool, the NDA as a body was not yet formed.

“Mr Kingsley Kuku and Mr. Gordon Obuah, SA on Niger Delta and Chief Security Officer to President Jonathan, respectively were selected to visit Charles Okah in Kuje prison. Mr Daniel Alabrah was given the assignment to draft an endorsement statement for Charles Okah to go through and pass on to MEND.

“The duo reported back that they had visited Okah in Kuje prison at night with the promise of his release along with others should he cooperate to get MEND to endorse Jonathan.

“It therefore came as a shock when MEND did the opposite and endorsed Buhari. Mr. Jonathan was livid with anger and swore that the Okah's would rot in prison.

“It was also agreed that a show of force be put up in Yenagoa, Bayelsa state where ex-militants led by Government Ekpemupolo and Kingsley Kuku would threaten war should the electorate vote in Buhari's favour.

“It was around that period the idea of forming the Niger Delta Avengers was conceived. In fact the name "Avengers" came from the lips of Goodluck Jonathan.

“As election day approached, certain stakeholders were mobilized to form a force to standby and ensure total anarchy in the South-South and South-East within 24 hours if the election results were not favourable to Jonathan.

“It took everyone by surprise to learn that Mr Jonathan had conceded defeat even before the final results were released. The standby force who were to attack specific targets were told to stand down. They were all compensated in US dollars cash.

“The Niger Delta Avengers was born from the failure at the polls and would now be used as an organ to make the Buhari government ungovernable, bring economic hardship and cause hatred for the administration towards failure at the 2019 general elections.

“MEND was aware of this plot through a spy that could not be identified, and the group began its campaign to counter every effort of the NDA and the Biafra agitators to this day. MEND has been a thorn in the flesh because MEND’s successful propaganda has caused the split in our ranks today.

“If former President Jonathan provokes us further with denials of this revelation, we will reveal more sordid details. The prison authorities in Kuje who witnessed the closed door meeting from the outside can attest to that night visit of November 2014.”

We also heard it was him who suggested Boko Haram's name to the fanatics up in the North East.
What a wonderful man Jonathan is.

This ayiri guy would do anything for money. Gej that didn't kill anyone to remain President, how and why will he destroy ND just to get back at whoever.

Dear RNDA,on behalf of GEJ,i am denying all this baseless allegations please open up more details to convince Nigerians.

To show how deranged your whole team are,He has all this plans and kept it low key until he peacefully handed over to Buharin Which Nigerian politician can do such?

As stupid as you all are,he left the seat peacefully which means the group you said he formed has been disbanded why not drop your weapons and go home so that Nigerians can have their peace.

That man GEJ is a good man there is nothing you can do to malign that name even APC tried and it didn't work for them and I'm sure it won't work for you guys too.

Tho, I refuse to believe all the allegations, something tells me the enemies camp is getting splitted, hence all dis exposures. I no the prayers of the saints will save Nigeria. I won't be surprised if GEJ has a hand in all Dis, cos av suspected him from day one I heard the name Avengers. Avenging the pain of loosing out the election he spent billions to win. Don't be surprised dat, all the various groups coming up daily are the same NDA. Their plan is just to Confuse the Govt, so as to frustrate negotiations n dialogue. The greatest Avenger is God almighty, who will avenge all pharaohs of our great country.

These guys can be star writers at wale adenuga productions

" “Mr. President, I can tell you that by congratulating
Buhari, you would have done the unthinkable and
history will surely be kind to you,” a presidential
aide quoted the aviation minister as saying.
Our sources said as the President and Mr. Chidoka
conversed, the Minister of Justice, Mohammed Adoke,
arrived.
“He quickly joined Osita (the aviation minister) in
appealing to the President to ignore those advising
him not to concede defeat,” a witness said. “In fact, I
saw Adoke and Osita kneeling before the president in
deference and begging him to take the right decision
in the interest of the country.”
Our sources said at this point, Mr. Jonathan appeared
convinced. But more calls came in from people
believed to be opposed to any concession move, and
the president became confused again.
At that point, the Minister of Finance, Ngozi Okonjo-
Iweala, arrived, and she quickly joined the party
working to convince Mr. Jonathan to make the
historic call.
While Mr. Adoke departed shortly after Mrs Okonjo-
Iweala’s arrival, the finance minister and her
aviation counterpart continued to appeal to the
President to make the right decision.
At a point, the Special Assistant to the President on
Domestic Matters, Waripamo-Owei Dudafa, joined the
party.
He reportedly knelt before the president, held his
hand, and said, “You need to congratulate Buhari
now sir. I think you should leave this place on May
29 holding your head high.”
Mr. Dudafa then offered to place a call to Mr. Buhari
so the President could speak with him. Mr. Jonathan
agreed."

they said he is brave,let him owe to this.
