Na beans? America no fit wipe taliban then na OBJ wan come wipe my boys, Negro please

He can kill people but cant kill the dream cos the struggles continue

sjeezy8:

I miss OBJ man really that guy would have wasted the whole of MEND.

sjeezy8:

Its the cure for making money that is being lost by their militant actions.

honeric01:

MEND think they are powerful? uhm, i pity the innocent people living around these creeks, by the time the military take over, we shall see how MEND go live 2 months.

edoyad:

Is there really hope ? I told kobojunkie it would take more than 65k a month to end this problem he thought i was kidding. In the last month alone up to 10,000 bankers have lost their jobs, how many people depend on these newly jobless ? Govt not encouraging private sector at all but will keep saying Nigerian's must support. Support what ?
Graduates and non graduates alike lying idle and you tell me you con't see recipe for disaster.

Kobojunkie:

Please stop lying!! You never told me anything of the such and I never claimed that would do the trick. If you have actually followed any of my posts on here, you would have easily seen that[b]I happen to be against negotiating with CRIMINALS, no matter what level. People loosing their jobs and what not has NOTHING To do with MEND and it's terrorist actions[/b]

igbo boy:

One mans meat is another mans posion. To those of you in the SW and the North MEND is a terrorist orgnaization, to the rest of us they are fighting for justice, thats why their communities would never hand them in apart from PDP sell out like Amaechi and uduaghan who try tio please their oga's for Aso rock so that they can get some cut of the oil money

Kobojunkie:

I am sorry to burst your bubble there but the MEND issue has nothing to do with SW and North banding against the East, if that is what you are trying to make it here. Even the easterners are divided in so many ways and MEND is not supported by all groups. I know this for a fact as I happen to have family in the area and even they are disgusted by the terrorists.
When you say one man’s meat is another man’s poison, do you realize the meaning of that? In this case, you have a group claiming to be freedom fighters, going around depriving poor people of their means of livelihood, and as far as to destroy what many of the same poor have spent most of their lives gathering for their families. 

Their communities are likely TERRIFIED of them and that is, in my opinion one of the main reasons why they would never hand them over to the authorities. Even Robin Hood, who supposedly fought on behalf of the poor tried all he could to quiet the snitches in the communities he claimed he was fighting for. Na MEND, a band of mostly uneducated agbero’s in the middle of a jungle zone people go come snitch on without fear of consequence or retaliation? Get real!! Roflmao!!!

yeswecan:

I am getting irritated with MEND's calls for attention; I blame Yar'adua for negotiating with them in the first place the half dead president thinks paying terrorist will put a halt their activities 'what a logic. It actually motivates them and place them in the winning path, Mend or whatever they call themselves are not freedom fighters in anyway we know freedom fighters when we see them. what they do is quite easy; they attack and hide in creeks that's not how freedom fighters behave, they kidnap and request for money; typical behaviour of a criminal. Dudes comes on here to support them because of ethnicity; well i am from South south and i was born and educated there, i think they are cowards just like most Nigerians. Not until we do what is right Nigeria will remain the land of whiners, Fault-finders blaming the government for the led's failure.

Abonnema is not a town that FG can bomb indiscriminately. Infact, it will be almost impossible to distinguish between militants and citizens in such a progressive town as Abonnema. Many of the great and good of Rivers State are from Abonnema. They would not take kindly to any bombing of their town as occured in Odi and Gbaramatu. You can no more bomb Abonnema than you can bomb Bonny Island. The citizens of Abonnema are too powerful for that, and you will certainly hear from all their eminent sons, including Lulu Briggs, the Graham-Douglases etc.

Iyimbere,

where you get this pic. . .see as my Ama just fine!

edoyad:

Kobojunk you ignorantly say MEND Is made up of south-south agberos ? I pity your ignorance but may be i can understand where it stems from if you don't know there are well educated people in their camps coordinating logistics.
Didn't you and your friend tensor say that, WE Nigerians should change things with our hands ? Well MEND have heard your call and are responding with their hands with the aid kalashnikovs and rocket launchers.

edoyad:

Though i don't support terror on innocent civilians, i am 100% in support of what they're fighting for and i'm not from the south-south. Do You think they're fighting for only the south-south ? If so then you must be blind to the systemic failure all over Nigeria. If the FG will not listen to the cries of common Nigerians barely surviving under their purposeless leadership, then what the creek boys are doing should be replicated by every other Zone in Nigeria.
When that happens, they will learn to bring Saudi Arabian hospitals to Nigeria.

Nnekababy:

you dont refer to your president as half dead president and MEND as terrorist. mind your language.

edoyad:

^ Tell me what future they are destroying ? Is it The one being converted to hard currency and flown out on private jets ? My friend take a look at those children in the marshy lands of the Niger Delta living like mud wrestlers and tell me if they look like There's a future for them. The same land where billions of dollars worth of petroleum is  pumped and used to contaminate the fishing waters they manage to survive on.

Kobojunkie:

You know what? It is possible to know how to read and write to an extent but still remain uneducated. I am not even going to plow the field on the level of education of MEND members with you anymore since you have given me another juicer tree to harvest from.

So, after reading all that I posted on the other thread, what you came away with is that people like me want Nigerians to take up arms as their way of fighting for their DEMOCRATIC right? Dude, you do realize that many do pass through schools but never allow school to pass through them? Lol

MEND claims to fight only for their people. Why in the world would I then conclude that it doesn’t? Or are you now a self-imposed MEND spokesman?

That you somehow connect a love for MEND and belief that MEND is itself fighting a bigger war than it claims it does speaks volumes of your delusion and not mine, sorry! That the FG is not listening is NO REASON why the citizens in a DEMOCRACY should resort to terroristic tactics. What I find unbelievable is that you are here advocating that the country be turned into a huge den of terrorists without even considering what that means to the lives of average people. We have seen the result of these such moves in the past with people turning on themselves in the end rather than on those who they claim to be the problem, and you are here advocating we do it again, only on a larger scale than before?

igbo boy:

Have you ever been to or even lived in any part of the ND? No, Thats why u rant your mouth spoilt brat making noise from the USA, ekpa,

Kobojunkie:

Yes I have. Maybe you should, instead of jumping to insult others for thinking outside of the box that you do, ask questions of those around you to get FACTS so when you respond, you don't sound as silly each time. That I am in the US NOW does not in anyway mean I have NEVER lived in ND or any other part of Nigeria EVER!!! If your brain could not figure that out then I suggest you start exercising it more by applying more logical reasoning rather than the same chop phooey you have been to this point!

IGNORANCE is NOT BLISS!!!

igbo boy:

really? you dont say!!!

edoyad:

@kobochico and mrchangewecanbelievein, in your inquiry on how i can consider support a cause has has the an inglorious reputation for abduction of innocent civilians, I'll let you know not every one operating in those creeks is a genuine agitator- same way not every one abducted is an innocent civilian.

edoyad:

Other than that I'll use the latin phrase, "EXITUS ACTA PROBAT ! !"
Do you think that the ANC did not have the same negative publicity to counter ?

edoyad:

Kobo, please do check which renowned African/south African statesman/ex-president, who recently celebrated his 90th birthday, is still on the US govt's list of wanted terrorists . In the 70s and 80s many democratic govts considered the ANC a organisation, wrong or right ?

edoyad:

EXITUS ACTA PROBAT is the romantic/latin way of saying , "the end justifies the means" - which may involve the brutal massacre of innocent civilians or abduction in exchange for sustenance, which ever case is found suitable at that point in time. Don't you think Latin is just brilliant ?
