2015 all will be reflected in the electoral register with this depopulation the northerners are perpetrating on Christians Middle-belters and Southerners.

It is not Northerners. Stop this, it is a political move and people should be blaming their government for not protecting the people instead of blaming northerners.

Yesterday a yoruba man was beaten almost to death in ebonyi. Is it South-easterners fault or the government.

Security issue is a Nigerian/FG problem. haba

Lets all call our government to order so they can ensure people are safe ALL OVER THE COUNTRY NO MATTER THE ETHNCITY OR RELIGION. Nairaland should not blind you to the reality.

[quote author=Chyz* link=topic=840351.msg9908026#msg9908026 date=1325862706]Frosbel, I have noticed how you are trying to spread stories to pin Ndigbo against others for the sake of getting us to begin another war. You are not a nigerian and I suspect you are working for a foreign gov thats trying to disintegrate nigeria.  As long as you continue this I will be encouraging my people against going the way you want by all means.[/quote] Gbammm well said.

The government MUST investigate this. It is wrong for anybody to wake up and kill people anyhow.

Pure, unadulterated madness.

yes pure madness

that is PDP government for you

More Anger in DELTA STATE

WARRI – THE protest against the removal of fuel subsidy expanded to Delta State, Friday, with members of the Nigeria Bar Association, NBA, and Committee for Defence of Human Rights, CDHR, grounding business and social activities in the twin cities of Warri and Effurun for more than four hours.

The protest is coming ahead the planned nationwide industrial action on Monday by Organized Labour.

The placard- carrying protesters were led by John Aikpokpo-Martins, Vice Chairman Warri NBA; Barrister Casely Omon-Irabor, Coordinator, Human Rights Defenders Organisation of Nigeria.

Sunny Enenuvwedia, President, CDHR; Pastor Edewor Egedegbe, President, Network for Positive Change; and Barr Benefit Orugbo, Chairman, CDHR Delta State.

They hit the streets of Warri and Effurun as early as 7.00 am in their hundreds. The take-off point was Effurun roundabout.

Some of the placards bore inscriptions; “We want fuel subsidy” “Don’t play politics with our lives in Nigeria” “Okonjo Iweala should resign” “No to IMF policies” “Jonathan has failed us” “If Jonathan cannot rule, resign.”

Okada riders, market women and office workers who closed businesses and offices cheered the protesters as they chanted solidarity songs. Members of the various civil societies also joined in the protest as they march on.

In a proactive strategy, the Area Commander, ACP Abutu Yaro , led several police officers in providing escort for the protesters so that hoodlums would not take advantage to hijack the protest.

Addressing Deltans at Jakpa junction, John Aikpkpo-Martins, Vice Chairman, NBA, Warri said, “We members of the NBA protest today to say no to removal of fuel subsidy, we are fighting against oppression, this is not military rule, Okonjo-Iweala cannot dictate for us, she should resign, fuel price should be returned to N65.”

Also adding his voice, Sunny Enenuvwedia, President, CDHR said, “The president action is hasty. It is anti people, government should cut their bogus life style spending and there will be money for development.

“Why is it only the poor that must suffer? Enough of this rubbish, we want the decision to be rescinded immediately.”

frosbel:
I am beginning to agree that this maybe political.

If this was a Northern thing , thousands would have died by now !!

This is a pin pointed killing to spark outage and chaos


I might be totally wrong though .

Thousands have died already

yes we should be asking the commisioner of police, FG, and other security agencies what they are doing about Boko haram.

Or does the government not know those behind it ? Who are they decieving ?

Boko haram said Christians should leave the north, THE FG DID NOTHING

Boko haram killed people in Mosque, Churches etc you name it. They are evil and I AS A MUSLIM can never EVER SUPPORT SUCH ORGANISATION.

Nigerians should come together and fight Boko Bast.ards

Bliss4Lyfe:
Christians are Igbo are they not?  

My sister, take heart  . I can assure you that nigeria is not longer in the 1960s where tribalsim was killing us. No NORTHERNER SUPPORT BOKO HARAM even No nigerian support Boko haram.

We should stick together and fight boko haram.  

After the protest, Nigerians should come together against boko haram

Gbawe:
@Alj Harem.

My brother, take your time OOO !!!! Which one you dey now? Why try and pass off pictures of Somalia as Delta State? No SS/SE State is protesting so take your propaganda elsewhere. Only the "parasitic" and "lazy phucks" Yorubas and Fulani "owners of Nigeria" are protesting and we know why.

Love the sarcasm. I am so happy that edo and delta are not going in for the cheap sentimental propaganda from Bigots like Beaf and co.

We are in this cesspit of a Nation together and as such we should unite for the best intreaset of the people.

Next protest is for the FG to make such effort are taken to clean up delta, baleysa and rivers state oil spill. If not another protest go begin.

Kudos to wafi people. Warri no dey carry last at all at all !!

1. I hope it is not true

2. If true, Northerns MUST STAND UP AGAINST BOKO HARAM

3. THE Fg should send the military there to make sure this Boko haram people are caught !!!!!

Bliss4Lyfe:
I wouldn't call dat a protest.   

so what would you call it ?

I have told you SEerners to listen to Ohaneze and stay out of Nigerian's way. You are not listening Stay out of Nigerian's way Ok. GEJ is not an Igbo president but a Nigerian president thus if SE is not protesting it is fine by everyone but insulting others and acting like you are clever would do you no good. Ok !

Just listen to your leaders and keep shut or better still keep a neutral stance rather than support the policy because of tribalism. BTW you are not a deltan  so stay out

omaojo1:
May God reward you for this work, Alj harem also.

Something tells me that you are fighting for the good of this country, more than self.

Keep it up, you guys are an inspiration to many people.

Amin/Amen my brother

God would deliver us from the evil plaguing this country. Amen

Protesters, Friday morning marched through the streets of Warri in a peaceful protest against the removal of fuel subsidy by the federal government.
