A new militant group in the Niger Delta, the Niger Delta Avengers, has allegedly blown up trunk lines belonging to Nigerian Agip Oil Company and Shell Petroleum Development Company in Bayelsa State.

It was learnt that the Avengers blew up Nembe 1, 2, and 3 Brass to Bonny trunkline belonging to the two oil majors.

It was learnt that the incident occurred about 2.15am on Saturday in Nembe, Nembe Local Government Area of the state.
The NDA has in the last weeks attacked oil installations in the Niger Delta with the Saturday’s attack on the pipeline being the latest.

President Muhammadu Buhari has spoken of his experience at camps holding people displaced by Boko Haram, saying he saw “pathetic scenes” that were “really terrible” he could not return there.

Mr Buhari said he saw children who neither knew their fathers nor where they came from.

He said after Mr Danjuma, a former defence chief and now a billionaire, said he could not take up the role he wanted him to due to his advanced age, he took a decision to set up a ministry with the sole mandate to oversee humanitarian issues in the country.

“I went only three camps and since then I have not gone back because I couldn’t stand it, it’s really terrible,” the president said.

He spoke Thursday in Abuja at the inauguration of the government’s humanitarian coordination committee.

Read part of the president’s comment below:

“As a digression, I will like to make some comments based on my visit to some Internally Displaced Persons (IDPs) camps. The pathetic scenes I saw pushed me to ask one of the most respected generals we had in the military, Gen. T. Y. Danjuma, initially to head this organization.

“Because, what we receive from NGOs sometimes does not permeate; it does not go down to the people there. If you see the children, they don’t know their fathers not to talk of where they come from. So I had to go and beg General Danjuma to please come and be in charge of that so that our resources are properly utilized, because some Nigerians are really reckless.

“There don’t care whose money it is they will put it in their own pockets. So I had to get General Danjuma. But when he told me that age was not on his side, I got documents from intellectuals so that we could set up a ministry so that it will coordinate the activities of NEMA and others; so that the sources can be properly accounted for.

“This is the reason the ministry was set up so that the minister will account to the executive council and make sure that the resources are properly utilized.

“I went only three camps and since then I have not gone back because I couldn’t stand it, it’s really terrible. I hope you will give your patriotic support so that they will properly get the advantage of the contributions made by the country and the NGOs and international bodies.”

Sultan of Sokoto, Sa’ad Abubakar, has charged the government to take urgent steps to improve the living standard of Nigerians, insisting that “hunger virus” is killing Nigerians more than the dreaded COVID-19 (Coronavirus)

The Sultan who spoke at the first quarterly meeting of Nigeria Inter-Religious Council (NIREC), in Abuja, on Thursday, said that even though, Coronavirus is killing hundreds of people across the world, “hunger virus” is the major killer of Nigerians.

He said: “There is a very serious virus that is killing Nigerians much higher than Coronavirus. That virus is hunger. There is hunger virus and it’s very serious. You need to go round the country, into the villages, into the towns and see how people are really struggling to survive.

“These are very serious issues, and as religious and community leaders, we must continue to talk about these issues, and also send our recommendations to the government and watch how the government will implement the recommendations.”

Meanwhile, the Secretary to Government of the Federation (SGF), Boss Mustapha, in his remark, reassured religious leaders that the government was seriously committed to the uplift of a good percentage of Nigerians from poverty.

He also re-emphasised that the Federal Government was committed to the security of lives and property of Nigerians, and solicited the support of the religious and community leaders to the sensitisation of Nigerians as regards efforts of government to improve the living condition of Nigerians.

He said: “To grow peace in Nigeria, NIREC must lead in the creation of awareness among adherents within and outside our communities. They should be educated in all languages on how to improve on personal hygiene, regularly monitor body temperature, report illness and follow medical advisories, reduce non-essential activities and close contact especially in crowded public spaces.

There is no Human rights in Nigeria ohh

A Police officer will arrest you and frame you for serious crimes and if you keep forming my rights he will arraign you in court on a friday before a magistrate that does not have jurisdiction who will then remand you to prison custody.

Your lawyer who you think will fight your case will only be interested in his court fees - so the more times you appear in court the more he gets paid.

Your lawyer will then have to get the IPO to send the case file to the right court. You will pay for this to happen. Then you will pay the court's register to file the case for hearing as son as possible. By this time you would have spent no shorter than 2 weeks in prison custody.

Big day for court has arrived and now the Warden is demanding fuel money from you or you will not get to court.

You manage to get to court and the case is called up. Your greedy lawyer does not enter a plea on your behalf but argues that the court has no jurisdiction. You will sleep in prison for the next 2weeks.

Finally you get sense and get a new lawyer and repeat the same steps above by bribing the IPO and court register to file your case.

You enter a plea and your reasonable lawyer asks for a bail on your behalf. The judge then requests he files an official application to that means. Case is adjourned for one month and you remain in lockdown.

Big day comes and your lawyer tells you that you need to bribe the Police prosecutor so as not to oppose you bail. You have no choice. 20K has been paid to the IPO.

The judge grants you bail on liberal terms. Now you must secure the sureties. This time you engage with the court registrar who will - for a fee- arrange professional sureties on your behalf whom you must pay the bail sum upfront plus 10% as their commission. The registrar gets his own commision. You will still follow the black maria back to prison. Your bail warrants now have to be processed at the prison. You must give the wardens money to sign and approve your release.

Your trouble doesn't stop there now that you are free, you still owe your lawyer money and the IPO is threatening to add more charges on you and revoke your bail unless you pay up.

Do not pray for Police wahala in this Buhari govt.

Majority in ATM in prison yards are innocent.

Mind you the scenario I played out can only happen if you have money and are interested in fighting for your non-existing rights

Jakumo:
Pastor TB Jaguda may not be the most successful conman pastor in Nigeria, but he is by far the least educated, for the man can barely utter a coherent sentence in the English language. Pastor Jaguda also seems to be afflicted with some form of mild autism, which sees him repeating the same idiotic phrase in his unique brand of broken English, as a cue for his cult followers to vigorously nod their heads in agreement with the noise being made, while waving their hands frantically about in the air, like so many drowning lemmings caught in the undertow of a river's muddy current.

Purely for entertainment, I watched TV footage of Pastor Jaguda fleecing his gullible flock, and each time I did so, I was truly amazed at the appalling, wanton murder of the English language committed by that buffoon pastor, and this in turn led me to reflect on the ease with which Nigerians can be separated from the hard-earned money, by the simple expedient of some trickster purporting to be God's personal assistant, even when such snake-oil salesmen are barely able to communicate in the English language.
