The statement signed by General
John Dukku of the Niger Delta
Watchdogs and Coalition of Niger
Delta Agitators and a host of
others said that President Buhari
has never been disposed to the
appointment of the CJN, saying it
was why he delayed his
appointment as the country’s chief
law office after many months in
acting capacity.
The statement added that the CJN
was suffering because he hails
from the south south minority
zone.
The statement read in full: “The
General Assembly of the Coalition
of Niger Delta Agitators is shocked
to learn about the arraignment of
the Chief Justice of the Federal
Republic of Nigeria Justice Walter
Onnoghen over allegations of his
false declaration of assets based
on a petition written by one Mr.
Dennis Aghanya of the Anti-
Corruption and Research Based
Data Initiative. The CJN is
suffering just because he is from
the minority area of the South
South the Niger Delta region. This
is definitely a petition plotted by
the Presidency to forcefully
remove the incumbent CJN from
office and replace him with a
Northerner.
Confusion Over Bombing
Of Oil Pipeline In
Bayelsa
“In the first instance, President
Muhammadu Buhari was not
disposed to Justice Onnoghens
appointment to this position which
is why he refused to confirm the
appointment after so many months
of serving in Acting capacity. It
was during the period of his
sickness while in Britain that the
Acting President Prof. Osinbajo
confirmed the appointment. We
wish to also recall that in August
last year, Mr. Matthew Seiyefa of
Bayelsa State who was the most
senior and most qualified officer
at the time was appointed to the
position of Acting Director-General
of the Department of State
Security by Prof. Osinbajo, only to
be replaced with a retired and
junior officer to Mr. Seiyefa, Mr.
Yusuf Magji Bichi by President
Buhari as soon as he resumed
duties. We hereby vehemently
resist any attempt to remove CJN
Walter Onnoghen from office.
“These go to confirm that there is
a high level of hatred, injustice,
discrimination and marginalization
of the Niger Delta region by the
APC-led government over the past
three years.
“Before the 2015 elections, we can
recall several events that took
place in the political arena which
can now be confirmed were done
to discredit the government of
President Goodluck Jonathan.
Nationwide protests in 2012 led
by top labour leaders and Civil
Rights activists including the
current APC National Chairman,
Adams Oshiomhole, Professor
Wole Soyinka, Femi Falana, and
Festus Keyamo greeted the
government of the day against the
removal of oil subsidy and
resultant increases in the pump
prices of the nations petroleum
products. After much persistence,
government had to bow to the will
of the people.
“During the campaign for re-
election in 2015, Dr. Goodluck
Jonathan a South South indigene
was attacked in Bauchi state, we
also witnessed how Northerners
and Yorubas embarrassed him,
even those he trusted betrayed
him and did everything possible to
remove him because he is from a
minority tribe in Niger Delta.
Therefore, we want to inform
Nigerians and the International
Community that any attempt for
President Buhari to continue in
office beyond May 2019 will be
resisted by all means necessary.
If they succeed in rigging election
and bring back Buhari, then
Nigeria should prepare to exist
without the Niger Delta oil, Niger
Delta will not be part of Nigeria
anymore. The Northerners should
also prepare to leave the Niger
Delta if President Buhari contiue
beyond May 2019; we are
prepared to strike once and for all
and declare our Sovereign Niger
Delta Republic.
“What, however, surprises us is
the fact that the same people and
groups that protested against the
petroleum subsidy removal and
increases in prices of the
petroleum products are the ones
who gave President Buhari the
nod to commence the subsidy
removal without any record of
protests. This goes to confirm
without any iota of doubt, that the
protests against the Jonathan
administration were embarked
upon basically because he is from
the Niger Delta region. Similarly,
protests against the Chibok Girls
abduction, and complaints about
widespread corruption, high prices
of commodity items, etc were the
order of the day. They declared
that they needed change; thus,
they ganged up, humiliated and
betrayed Jonathan out of office
and brought President Buhari to
power. But today the much desired
changed has metamorphosed into
chains and those so called
activists and civil rights
protagonists are keeping mum
even in the face of human rights
abuses, and deployment of
draconian laws reminiscevnt of the
military era.
Onnoghen : Buhari Has
No Respect For Niger
Delta, Democracy,
Judiciary – S/S
Governors
“Today, the prices of items have
increased geometrically and basic
household items are no longer
affordable to teeming Nigerians.
Price of petrol is now N145 per
litre as against N87 during
Jonathans regime. A Bag of Rice
now costs between N17,000 and
N18,000 as against N7,000 –
N8,000 during the immediate past
regime.
“Even though Boko Haram
insurgency was prominent during
Jonathans regime, it is now
beyond control. We understand
that Governor Shettima of Borno
who was against the use of
military action against the
insurgents by the then
Government on the pretext that
innocent and harmless citizens
shall be killed in the military
operations, is now crying that the
insurgency is beyond him. As
soon as APC government came
into power in 2015, Fulani
Herdsmen started killings; today
Fulani Herdsmen have killed
uncountable number of Nigerians,
burn villages, maim and rape
women with impunity without any
arrest or prosecution. Today the
insecurity in the country has
degenerated to a point where
people can no longer sleep with
their eyes closed, the situation is
same in Borno, Yobe, Zamfara
including Katsina state, the home
of President Buhari. If President
Buhari cannot secure his own
people in Katsina State, how can
he secure the whole Nigeria?
“Of course, he and his fellow
tribalists should remember that
whatever goes round, comes
around. Even the so called fight
against corruption is very
selective, and ridiculously those
who are branding the past PDP-led
government as the most corrupt
are those who had been part of
the government since 1999 as
governors, legislators, political
appointees, etc., but today they
are not ashamed to blame the
government of which they were an
integral part, for the alleged
failures and bastadization of the
economy. People like former
Speaker and Governor Rotimi
Amaechi, now Buharis Campaign
Director General and former
Governor now Senator, Godswill
Akpabio who had corruptly
enriched themselves during their
tenures have now found the APC
their safe heaven.
“The nations poverty index has
skyrocketed, the rate of
unemployment has increased.
Today, Buhari is busy trying to
extradite erstwhile Petroleum
Minister, Diezani Alison-Madueke
from London, while under his very
nose, billions of naira are being
drained fraudulently by the Aso
Rock Cabal and his political
appointees and key office holders
across the nation. The NNPC has
become a conduit pipe for
siphoning the nations financial
resources. But to President Buhari
and the Cabal, nothing bad is
happening in the governments led
by the APC.the thieves are in the
PDP-ruled States. Benue, Rivers
and Akwa Ibom States must be
constantly harassed and their
accounts frozen because they are
not APC. A recent case in point is
the alleged corruption charge with
admissible evidence leveled
against Governor Ganduje of Kano
State, who PMB has already
declared to be the best Governor
in Nigeria.
“Nigeria is in a confused state as
recently declared by the United
States of America. APC is
prepared to win the forthcoming
elections by force. They have
refused to campaign because they
have nothing to tell the people
about the past three years of their
governance. Thus, they are
preparing to win by any means
through Vote Buying and
falsification of election results
through INEC and Security
Agencies. We have now come to
the conclusion that if Buhari
returns to power the country will
no longer be safe. If Nigeria will
remain as one indivisible unit, it
will have to survive without the
Niger Delta crude oil. We call on
those who ganged up, protested
and humiliated Goodluck Jonathan
out of office, to rise up and do
same to President Muhammadu
Buhari whose government is the
worst in the history of governance
in the country.
“It is quite unfortunate that
recently the Buhari-led APC
government has resorted to
harassment and intimidation of
opposition with impunity, it is a
glaring fact that the massive
corruption currently going on in
the APC led government has
placed Nigeria as one of the
worlds most corrupt country, yet
Buhari is celebrating corrupt
officials as long as they are APC
members.
“We therefore want to state
categorically that if the Presidency
failed to reverse it harassment
against the CJN, we will have no
other option than to mobilize all
the Niger Delta fighters and
commence serious actions that
would shake the country and the
whole world; we shall shut down
all the oil wells in the Niger Delta.
We also call on all the Northerners
and Yoruba who own oil wells in
the Niger Delta to prepare to
vacate immediately, we also want
to warn our Niger Delta brothers
who are working for Buhari to
watch their back and know that we
are watching them and their family
members, we warn them to stop
campaigning for Buhari in the
Niger Delta. Be warned”
