Yeah but in the case of Gaddafi, it was more of personal strike for political survival by Nicholas Sarkozy. Gaddafi bankrolled Sarkozy re election with hundreds of millions of Usd and was going to give proof of that to French investigators. Sarky would have gone to prison for life....hence a wounded Gaddafi with survivable injuries was shot in the head by a French agent. Rumour has it Sarkozy gave the order live over the phone..

Youre right about the others, france does a lot of "cleaning jobs" on behalf of the West.
I guess that explains why the Americans were furious about his death. They wanted to parade him in a Court as a common criminal like they did with Mubarak to show their might.

Anything is possible as long as there is a motive. As for me, i dont see any motive for ththe French leader.
If the West wanted Buhari out and they wanted to pull a stunt like that they would have done that earlier in New York
France does most of the dirty work for the West.

France (supported by the UK) started enacting the no-fly zone in Libya before AU powers could say Jack.

It is a popular assertion in Intelligence circles that a French agent killed Gadaffi.

It was also French agents that planned the Gbagbo ouster.

When it comes to Africa, the UK and France are the outposts for the West to enact their sleezy tactics.

I'm not certain the ear infection was caused by Western forces, but it is possible. If it is, then the West have plenty of reasons to target Buhari.

First, he calls IMF's bluff. Next he gives the US a middle-finger to romance with China (during the loans saga which did not end in his favor). Then he ignores UK's Foreign Secretary's warning not to send the military to the South South. Then he had the guts to ask for stolen loots and stylishly accuse the West of not doing enough to stem corruption in Nigeria.

If it was in the 80's. These actions (I call them sins) are enough to warrant the West to put a bullet in his head.

He is lucky, he only got Meniere disease as retribution. If he doesn't heed to the advice from OBJ and GEJ during his latest meetings (current official mouthpieces of the West) with them, he would not enjoy the rest of his tenure or worse not complete it. Nigeria is too pro-West for anyone occupying the CIC position to think he or she can out-do the West. It is political (and could very well be physical) suicide.

Not necessarily his policies but the way he smoothly sailed in his political career...from deputy governor to Governor, from Governor to Vice president, and vice president to President, and from president to a powerful statesman/envoy entering all western countries like it's his backyard, making speeches at powerful western institutions. For you to sail smoothly in your political career like that and complete your tenure as president in an African country of immense importance without being overthrown, coup de tat, sick or died as Genbuhari said, I think you must be an agent/anointed or you have serious supernatural forces. Only Obasanjo was able to do it before, now Jonathan!
In 2007 when Jonathan was picked instead of Odili to become the VP, OBJ was christening him to be the next Western stooge in Nigeria.

Jonathan was indeed a stooge until late in his tenure when he started exhibiting anti-West rhetorics.

First, he went against the West with a straight face because of BH, then again because of EU-ECOWAS deal, and another prominent face-off was the Anti-Gay faceoff. He was even reluctant to send in Nigerian forces to take out Gbagbo against clear Western instructions. France sensed the hesitation, which is why they coordinated the removal themselves. Then he started romancing with China more than any other president in Nigeria's history.

These confrontations signaled the end of GEJ's political career.

There was no way GEJ would have won the 2015 elections. The West had had enough of him and their top agent in the person of OBJ made that very clear.

Don't believe me? Read this article--http://pulse.ng/politics/nigeria-elections-2015-us-uk-warn-against-manipulation-of-results-id3617039.html

Why would the Anglo-American super power threaten a regional power over election manipulations? How the fuc* did George Bush (Jr) win against Kerry for his second term? Was it not election manipulations?

GEJ's policies were mostly anti-West. From the EU-ECOWAS deal objection to the auto policy.

The goodwill that GEJ is enjoying today is because he played the final script well. He left without a fight. And quite frankly, they need to honor him so as to convince other dictators in Africa to follow suit.

If GEJ had fought the election, he would have received the Gbagbo treatment, the SS would revolt, Nigeria would break up as predicted, and the West would wade into the South to save the day and try to work out a deal where another stooge unites then control the region and its vital oil resources.

The world is a chess board. 180m Nigerians are just pawns in the eyes of the real players.

PoliticsRe: Ogoni Clean-Up: VP Osinbajo's Visit (Live Updates) by LordAdam: 11:15am On Jun 03, 2016
Dollyak:
What's more important is for the land to be cleaned up. It's a big shame everyone has politicized the whole thing despite the best of intentions from this administration regarding the clean up.

Everyone should take a step back and be objective for once.
There is a good reason for politicizing the issue.

The Ogoni cleanup is estimated to take 30 years and cost $1b.

Before you embark on such a project, a timeline should be engineered and a trust fund established.

Being a thorough administrator, GEJ never took hurried steps.

PMB is the opposite of GEJ. He has earmarked $10m (only about 1% of the entire funds) for the start up. There is currently no trust fund or timeline of how the funds would be released. Or even how we would apportion funds to it (as you well know the economy is bleeding and we could be entering a recession).

What we just have is an hurried attempt to win the goodwill of the ND people, and probably dumping this in 2 years when the euphoria has died down.

If there is no plan to see it through, then wait till you get such a plan before you commence activities. If we can construct roads that should take at most two years over a decade, what is to say that this cleanup would not take 60 years instead of the earmarked 30 years.

It is a laudable act to commence cleanup, but it is cruel to use it as a political move, which is evident by the abrupt lack of planning and vision.

It is exactly like the enforcement of the TSA. When TSA was envisioned by GEJ's economic team, on paper the advantages sounded great, but the consequences were just as dire. In the end, phased adoption was agreed upon. Implementation was delayed in the end of GEJ's tenure when oil price fell and the economy weakened.

Buhari in his bid to score a cheap political point, bluntly enforced the TSA at a time when oil price was at its lowest, our growth rate had reduced by over 60%, and the economy was quite frankly at the brink of contracting.

Today, they talk about how they have accumulated N3t in the TSA, but they do not mention the resultant 50k jobs lost in the finance sector as a result of the hurried shock caused by the removal.

The road to hell is paved with good intentions.

You just landed! Ehen that's what you should have stated since and we wouldn't have gone down that secession line which you didn't like the reality of data I showed you.

As long as Buhari is alive and healthy, I believe he will fix a lot of these issues that are hurting the SE and SS especially and Nigeria generally. Every government in Nigeria struggles in its first year in office and that's what we just witnessed. Buhari's own is worse because he inherited a broken country from GEJ. It is the truth but you may not like that as well.

I strongly believe in this statement. Nigeria go better without unnecessary violence.
Una don start. What kind of country did GEJ inherit from Yar' Adua?

What kind of country did Yar'Adua inherit from Obasanjo?

What kind of country did Obasanjo inherit from Abubakar?

I did not make that statement because I did not like the data you showed me. I have repeatedly said it in my replies that implementing the confab reports would end the secessionist threats. Or were you blind to that?

That your belief would only happen when the Nigerian government becomes civil in its dealings. Until then, violence will be the predominant form of getting the attention of the government and more importantly getting them to take necessary action.

LRNZH:
[b]Guy! Why are you arguing like this? Come on!

When a country splits, it loses the advantage that comes with its size and diversity. Look how Nigeria is surrounded by French countries but can still stand her ground as a regional superpower in West Africa because of her size.

Not even resource rich Equatorial Guinea or Sao Tome can lay claim to this benefits because they're too small.

So if you're going to secede there should be other advantages to offset that loss. When you secede and get full control of your resources and you're still worse off than where you came from even after 15 -20 years then how do you justify the secession?

I know you understand all this but don't want to cede the point because as I earlier showed you, none of the countries that have seceded in Africa are better off than their former country and it doesn't help your wish to secede.

Namibia vs South Africa,
Eritrea vs Ethiopia,
Somaliland vs Somalia or
South Sudan vs Sudan.

That's just what the data shows. I don't make it up.[/b]
I will reply you for the last time

How is the SE and SS gaining from the supposed "size" and "diversity" of the Nigerian hegemony?

Who needs the size and diversity when we are effectively second class citizens in what should be an equal union?

That is the simple fact.

Nigeria's problems are not beyond solving.

Let Buhari implement confab and let him initiate a tough crackdown on the Fulani Herdsmen. You would find that these issues of secession would fizzle out.

If he remains adamant and continues to use force, Biafra and Niger Delta would actualize.

Of course, everything has its advantages and disadvantages. However, the advantages in a secession far outweighs the disadvantages.

That is the simple fact.

I am not calling for a secession just yet. Buhari still has a chance to keep this country as one. The problem is that he is insincere and using 20th century tactics.

Would I rather Nigeria remain one, sure. But it must be on everyone's terms, not just the elitist megalomaniac North.

If they continue to trample on our right to agitate for more control of our resources, then we are left with no choice but to secede.

The ball is in the North's court, you can add SW to that mix.

I am sorry to state that you're clutching at straws. The yardstick we are using is if there is a secession, the new country should be doing better than the country it seceded from. Otherwise, what's the use of secession?

Is Namibia doing better than South Africa?
Is Eritrea doing better than Ethiopia?
Is South Sudan doing better than Sudan?
Is Somaliland doing better than Somalia?
Who are you to use that as a yardstick?

In fact, why must you use that as a yardstick?

The use of secession is not to become better than your host country but to have 100% control (sovereignty) over your affairs. Especially, when the host country limits you or treats you unfairly.

Secession is similar to Independence.

In both cases, the party calling for secession or independence does not like the union or power ruling them and want to chart their own course.

Are you saying that Scotland should not push for secession because they are not going to do better than England?

I fail to see your logic.

Armed struggle for more resources that is being stolen and will be stolen by those same people that have access? I doubt that you or any other common man in the ND benefited from the GEJ largesse that spanned a period of 5 years . But the struggle was suspended then.

For this armed struggle, the opportunity cost is all that I listed in the article. You'd rather forego another LNG project etc.... because of this?
If this is your reply from all I wrote, then I'm done replying you.

I think I've done enough to prove that an individual from the Niger Delta has no business dictating to us what is good or bad for us.

I don't know where you are from, but these armed struggle will benefit you too.

Niger Delta armed struggle made the 13% derivation to be implemented in 2000.

Today, Imo and Abia states in the SE produce oil. Their state governments benefit from the 13% derivation.

Today, Ondo and Lago states in the SW produce oil. Their state governments benefit from the 13% derivation.

In the near future, NE states would start producing oil (Buhari approved billions of naira for oil exploration in the Chad Basin). They too would benefit from the 13% derivation.

Niger Delta is fighting not just for our future, but the future of more oil producing states in other regions.

Be careful which part of the towel you use to wipe your ass. It may well be the part you use to wipe your face tomorrow.

Enforce the confab report, these secession threats would drown.

If these armed conflicts continue, Biafra and Niger Delta Republic would happen. Since 1990, 34 new countries have been created.

The north better follow the saying, "A stitch in time saves nine."

Kindly point us to an African state that seceded and is doing well. Comparing us to non African countries is apples to oranges comparison.
Namibia.

Only 3 African countries have seceeded and gotten independence of recent. Namibia, Eritrea, and South Sudan.

South Sudan is still in its infancy. They would get it right with time.

Eritrea still fights a cold war with their former neo-colonialist--Ethiopia. Still, they are getting better with high GDP growth rates.

Namibia has "high political, social, and economic stability." They have a GDP per capita that is three times that of Nigeria. $6,118 vs Nigeria's $2,640.

I can give you a list of 5 countries and had independence at least 20 years before Eritrea that did not secede that are worst than Eritrea in Africa.

Are you in support of militancy in Niger Delta as we know it today?
For lack of better alternatives: Yes, I am in support.

While in school, I received scholarship funds from one of the Niger Delta States Development Commission. It certainly helped in my studies. I received bursary from my state for 4 of the 5 years of my schooling. I received full scholarship for my fees for 4 years of the 5 years I schooled from an oil coy operating in my state. All of these without being related to a politician or militant.

Men, women, and children gave up their lives so I could enjoy those benefits. The armed struggle in part or in whole made it possible for me to enjoy those benefits.

Thousands enjoyed these benefits as I did.

senbonzakurakageyoshi:
Unfortunately, you're failing to take the South Sudan example. They were probably telling themselves "the time will come when we will hold our leaders accountable". Now, they have not just complete resource control, but their own country to themselves. And the squabbling and fighting and dissent has continued with almost the same vigor as the one that got them their secession. You would have thought that one week after getting their demands, the country would become a land flowing with milk and honey with the way they agitated for a secession. It shouldn't be the other way round. It shouldn't be "wait till we get the resources first, then we will demand accountability", because when that resource control is granted, those selfish leaders that funded the agitation would become the new oppressors in control of the resources and then a new struggle would start afresh. Don't set the cart before the horse.
Give us our republic and when we fail, remind us of South Sudan.

After the US gained independence from Britain, the also had their civil war.

Centuries later, they became a world power.

Most countries of the world had their birth pains.

South Sudan will get better with time. They would rise like a phoenix from their ashes. Simply because they now have 100% control over their destiny.

You do not keep prisoners in prison after they have completed their sentences because you think they would commit crimes afterward. If they have finished their sentences, you release them. Fair and simple.

You talk about South Sudan, but you fail to talk about Yugoslavia splitting into Bosnia, Serbia, Croatia, Macedonia, Montenegro, and Slovenia.

Let us control our future like Britain allowed Nigeria to control its future.

Stop cherry-picking facts, it make you sound unintelligent.

@LRNZH, if you are not from the Niger Delta, you are telling our story exactly how the whites would tell the story about Africa.

Like Adichie right said on TED Talk, Africans have to tell the African story. In similar vein, Niger Deltans have to tell the Niger Deltan story.

Don't feign knowledge of all issues when you have not held crude oil on your bare hands when you try to fetch water. Simply because you can read papers.

The Nigerian state historically is a repressive brute. FACT.

Adara fought an armed struggle, he got amnesty at the end.

Ken Saro Wiwa did a peaceful struggle, he paid with his life.

The 13% derivation was agreed in 1995.

It was implemented in 2000.

This was after the 1998/1999 peaceful later turned armed struggle led by the Ijaw Youth Council in Bayelsa and Delta.

When it started peacefully, the tanks were called in. Tens of thousands of troops were deployed. Hundreds were killed during peaceful protests.

It was after violence erupted that culminating with the Odi Massacre in 1999, that we started getting something back in 2000.

13% derivation was initiated in 2000. NDDC was created in 2000.

It was only after the armed struggle that started in 2004, that training of youths and Niger Delta Ministry was created in 2008.

In fact, the courts have said the Nigerian Army/FG should pay circa N20b as compensation to the Odi community for the massacre. That money has not been paid till date.

The moral of these historic facts is that Nigeria has historically suppressed peaceful agitations in Niger Delta but react to armed struggle in the Niger Delta.

Take last year for example.

When Buhari came in, he immediately cancelled pipeline surveillance contracts against background uproar from the region. Then he said he would begin to wind down the Amnesty program in 2018.

All peaceful routes to get him to change his mind achieved nothing.

All of a sudden, NDA starts bombing, and his mind changed.

In a recent meeting between the FG represented by Minister of Niger Delta and ex-militants, pipeline surveillance contracts will resume. Buhari now has repeatedly said he would not cancel Amnesty.

Can you see the trend?

As I said, good as your intentions are, if you are not a Niger Deltan you can never see things as we see them. Your opinion can never replace ours.

In 55 years, hundreds of trillion of Naira have been gotten from the sales of oil in the Niger Delta and politicians and elites gained with little to how for it. But Niger Deltan leaders use N8.1t with nothing gained in less than a decade and all of a sudden, you guys are now champions of accountability.

I am not saying it is right.

However, when the government only allow armed struggles lead to resolutions, those at the forefront are bound to take the largesse of what comes out. It is natural.

Niger Deltans cannot start bickering over wastage when we are being raped by the entity called Nigeria. A time will come when we would hold our leaders responsible for the wastage. However, for now, we cannot afford to fight internal squabbles when we need all hands on deck to conquer our far more aggressive neo-colonialists with more resources at their disposal.

The enemy of your enemy is your friend!

That is why the issues of accountability are currently downplayed in the Niger Delta. We are far more structured in our handling of issues.

You would know that if you have studied our struggle for years rather than do a two day research and come up with a biased piece of less than 5000 words.

The Niger Delta has a diverse ethnicity. Yet we put our differences aside and fight for our right. 80% of Niger Delta resources is in 20% of Niger Delta Lands, yet we do not do major inter-squabbling about who gets what.

When the Nigerian state begins to be civil, we in the Niger Delta will adopt peaceful resolutions. Until then, we have identified the nerve of Nigeria. Bomb oil pipelines and you would draw the attention of the Nigerian state and get juicy contracts and funds. Do peaceful protests like IPOB and you will be killed ruthlessly.

I hope you know that Buhari is visiting the Niger Delta this week, as a sign of good faith. To commission the start of Ogoni land cleanup.

Those who oppose war must be reasonable enough to value peace.

The Nigerian state does not value peace.

Bunch of unintelligent dimwits who chose a renegade senile dictator over a true progressive? Half of which now regret their choice.

15 million people voted for Buhari, 12 million people voted for GEJ. Many of those who voted for Buhari are regretting their choice. GEJ supporters are waxing stronger.

GEJ handed over peacefully. His supporters including myself accepted the loss in good faith.

We did not dictate to Buhari how to ruin the economy in 365 days. He did it by himself.

You are associated with Failure. Deal with it.

Stop chasing phantom enemies.

No body ordinarily would want to hate Buhari. What does he have that is worth hating? He has no certificate. Has only 150 cows. No foundation. No meaningful input. No award. Disgraced out of power the first time. Would likely be disgraced again.

He only expresses discontent and hate against the 5%. It is that hate originating from him that is ricocheting back at him.

I would say it again, Buhari has nothing that is worth hating. Every day he proves that to be true.

In fact, I pity him. He must be feeling like an i.diot really. Something he has already shown with his "why me?" lamentation on Aljazeera last year.

A man that cried after losing elections in 2011 for the third time. Whereas GEJ with smiles called him and congratulated him after losing an election.

Buhari is scared of his own shadow. That sort of paranoia is unhealthy.

You too are buying into that paranoia. Rather than look at issues objectively. You are scared everyone with a contrary view to Buhari's do not want him to succeed.

You've not had anything my friend. Wait for 3 years of war and blockade after which 3million Men, women and children of your tribe are killed. Thats the experience Igbos had after you sabotaged them.
That can never happen in Niger Delta. Port Harcourt, Delta, Cross River, and Akwa Ibom all have access to the Atlantic ocean.

We did not sabotage the Igbos.

The Efiks and Ibibios, present day Cross River and Akwa Ibom states fought on the side of Biafra. Ojukwu's second in command was a Niger Deltan. The name Biafra was coined by an Ijaw (a Niger Deltan) chief from Bayelsa state. Even part of Rivers was in the old Eastern region and they fought on the side of the Biafrans. Much of Delta and Benin were part of the old Western Region, these regions pledged loyalty to Nigeria.

The Niger Delta people are fluid people who have a penchant for solidarity.

Even with a diverse ethnicity, Delta state alone has over 7 ethnic groups, we still lump ourselves together to fight a common cause.

The Ijaw spear headed the struggle in 1998/1999, but the Ibibios still gain more with the highest allocation from the center every month.

Jonathan did not attempt to cancel amnesty or redact pipeline surveillance contracts.

Jonathan did not say the confab report is "useless."

I could continue.

Buhari brought this on himself!

Niger Delta cannot be transformed from the polluted cesspit that it is now to Dubai or Singapore in 6 years when the Northerners led by your re.tarded CIC promised to make Nigeria ungovernable.

Military presence substantially reduced after Jonathan took the seat as more soldiers were drafted to the North East to check the Boko Haram rampage.

That is not to say that there were no military presence to check the excesses of nefarious elements. Jonathan oversaw the killing of the militant John Togo and disbanding of the influential NPVDF militia.

So, stop linking the loss of Jonathan to renewed hostility in the Niger Delta.

Why did NDA wait from May 2015 to December 2015/January 2016 to start initiating acts of sabotage.

When tens of corpers were killed in 2011 in Bauchi and similar southern deaths in the North after Buhari lost the election and stirred the polity, did it happen 8 months after the election or immediately after the election?

It is okay to be biased. It is awful to be unintelligent.

You my good friend as just as biased as you are unintelligent.

The simple question they will ask you is did you see Catalonia or Scotland preaching hating and promoting genocide against others?

Nigeria is simply preventing a re-occurrence of the Rwanda genocide that some people have been threatening to mete out to others.
Personally, I was repulsed by the verbiage of Nnamdi Kanu in his broadcasts. The greatest freedom fighters like Gandhi and Mandela never used that tone.

Nevertheless, I began to understand where the anger and disgust of Nnamdi Kanu copiously bandied in his vituperative utterances came from, when I considered that neither Gandhi, Mandela, or Martin Luther King Jr dealt with the Fulanis.

Rather they dealt with enlightened caucasians with empathy and sound reasoning.

The Hausa/Fulanis and to the most part Yoruba muslims (the current power bloc of the Yorubas) do not have these lofty attributes.

They are demeaning, repressive, violent, and ret.arded (especially the elites).

These attributes they exemplified when they killed 3 million of Kanu's kinsmen in a bloody civil war.

If someone killed your entire family, I doubt you would pray for good health for the murderer.

Buhari should give these people audience. Continued military intimidations cannot work every time.

And because 2016 is not 1966, even if we get to a civil war, Nigeria will break up.

The world/UN would not sit idly by as 6 million plus Igbos die in the hands of an aggressive, repressive Fulani military.

You guys seem to think you guys are on Mars.

Do the right thing. Call these people to dialog. Do not think killing them in their tens would silence them.

Jonathan use the confab reports?

the whole world can see the results of the Arab spring,it did not bring solutions.
When it come to the confab report, you lot forget about continuity in governance.

Why did Buhari instate TSA that Jonathan did not use?

Why do you guys suffer from selective cerebral amnesia.

Read the Wikipedia entry on the Arab Spring -- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arab_Spring

The Arab Spring led to toppling of dictatorship, case in point Egypt, and increased liberal policies around the Arab world from Bahrain to Morocco.

Because you live in a democracy with freedom of speech. Do not think that you have the slightest idea of what it means to live under a repressive regime.

Nigeria is slowly gravitating towards a repressive regime with the anti-social media bill in tow, stupi.d divisive comments by the CIC, and placing more values on cows than on human lives.

Those who want Nigeria to be one must prove to others who do not buy the idea that they value them in the union.

As long as you continue to kill unarmed protesters, harass innocent citizens, and keep a blind eye to the marauding bouts of Fulani demons, you have ZERO morals to ask nor force anyone to remain in Nigeria.

Once upon a time, dissent in Scotland would be replied by sending soldiers and killing of Scots by the English monarchy. Today, dissent in Scotland is replied by countless trips of the PM to Scotland, multiple broadcasts of reassurance, referendums, and continued divestment towards increased sovereignty from the center.

Buhari, Fulanis, the West and y** are barbarians. Unfit to be classed as Homo sapiens.

We are already at our lowest ebbs. It can't get worse.

If our lands have been polluted for 50 years with nothing done, while billions of dollars flow to the pockets of our oppressors, we are willing to sacrifice more degradation for more share of our resources for the next 50 years.

Supported.

The success of the Arab Spring was because of the worldwide distribution of uploaded photos and videos of protesters and extra-judicial killing of unarmed protesters.

If Gaddafi could be sodomized with a knife, Buhari can be paraded before the ICC in cuffs.

We had a national confab. Buhari dismissed the reports.
The Fulani herdsmen killed hundreds and occupied territories (still do) in Benue. No response.

But he has the guts to oversee the killing of unarmed protesters and innocent civilians.

Nigeria is a democracy. The largest economy in Africa. With a population of 160 million people.

Every new photo and video proving Buhari's tyranny would pile pressure on him.

This is 2016 not 1985.
