Those linking former President Goodluck Jonathan
to the Niger Delta Avengers (NDA) are gunning for
his head, Niger Delta stakeholders alleged
yesterday.
The stakeholders under the aegis of the Coalition
of Niger Deltans for Justice and Development
(CONDJUD) described the allegation that Jonathan
is the grand patron of NDA as callous, wicked and
unthinkable.
“It is a plot to bring him to disrepute and
eventually kill him”, CONDJUD National President
Chief Ebiakpor Barley claimed in Yenagoa, the
Bayelsa State capital.
NDA, also yesterday, renewed its campaign for
Niger Delta Republic, fixing October 1 for the
venture.
CONDJUD also frowned at the security report
alleging Jonathan’s involvement with NDA, saying
it was “contrived by hired blackmailers for selfish,
personal and wicked reasons.”
Barley said despite the smear campaign, Jonathan
remained a good, innocent, peace-loving, law-
abiding and God-fearing man.
He said: “Laughable as the allegations against him
(Jonathan) in the campaign of calumny already in
the open are, it cannot be taken for granted and
waved aside as it is serious because they are
desperate and anxious to accomplish their
clandestine mission to malign, frame up and
eliminate an innocent man.
“The plot is to link and to establish him as the
chief sponsor of the activities of a militant group in
the Niger Delta – the Niger Delta Avengers. The
ex-President, we all know, is a meek and honest
man, who upholds more than anything else, the
unity of Nigeria and progress of her people for
greater development.
“Therefore, any kind of thinking to link him with
any set of persons or cabal planning or carrying
out bloody mission of bombing and destroying the
economic means of the country or destabilising the
nation, cannot and does not tally with his
character.”
Jonathan, Barley said, demonstrated his belief in
non-violence and the development of the country
when he vowed that “no blood of any Nigerian is
worth my ambition”.
He said Jonathan voluntarily relinquished power to
his successor, President Muhammadu Buhari,
without allowing his followers to foment trouble
during and after the 2015 presidential election.
The CONDJUD leader said: “That Jonathan is
sponsor of the NDA is laughable and a fabricated
lie from the pit of hell and the handiwork of
mischief makers and persons who are indeed
enemies of Nigeria and want this country to
capitulate under the watch of Buhari.
“They are the same people who collaborated with
other parts of the world to predict doom for
Nigeria in 2015 and that the presidential election of
that year will be the point of disintegration for
Nigeria and Nigerians.”
He said the mischief-makers, dissatisfied and
angry at the failure of their prediction, were once
again out to promote disunity, destabilisation,
disintegration and liquidation of the country by
plotting a collision course between Jonathan and
Buhari.
Barley alleged that some of the mischief-makers
were politicians within the All Progressives
Congress (APC) seeking Buhari’s favour.
He also accused some traditional neighbours and
sworn ethnic enemies of the Ijaw in the Niger
Delta and their feudal Northern allies as the
engineers of the allegations against Jonathan.
According to him, some heads of security
agencies as well as overzealous anti-graft
agencies, anxious to impress Buhari to justify the
hundreds of millions of naira voted for them, were
also suspects in the unfounded allegation.
