An ex-militant who identified himself as the leader of the group which, on Thursday, shot dead a lieutenant  colonel and two naval ratings attached to the Joint Task Force (JTF) on the Niger Delta, at the weekend, opened up on why they struck.

According to him, they killed the military officials because of Federal Government’s refusal to incorporate ex-militants who had been left out of the amnesty programme.

The ex-militant leader simply gave his name as Victor.

He spoke exclusively to Sunday Vanguard yesterday, just as Niger Delta activists and Lagos lawyer, Festus Keyamo, raised the alarm over the death in prison of one of the suspects arrested in connection with the 2010 independence day bombings in Abuja.

But the special adviser to the president on Niger Delta and Chairman of the post-amnesty programme, Hon Kingsley Kuku, in a response, said only President Goodluck Jonathan had the power to include those left out of the scheme after October 4, 2009.

“Pursuant to the 2009 Amnesty Proclamation, the Amnesty Office is saddled with task of disarming, demobilising and reintegrating 26, 358 Niger-Delta ex-agitators who accepted the offer of amnesty on or before October 4th, 2009”, Kuku told Sunday Vanguard on phone yesterday.

“To the best of our ability, we have been vigorously pursuing this mandate. We have exited the disarmament component of the programme having collected, documented and publicly destroyed all arms and ammunition submitted by the ex-combatants”, he said, adding as far he knew, the members of the so-called third phase amnesty that were not registered for the on-going programme.

He explained that if the president ordered that new names be added to the programme, his office would have no option than to accept them, saying, however, that as long as that was not done, there was nothing he could do as an individual to include the aggrieved ex-militants in the programme.

JTF spokesman, Lt. Col. Timothy Antigha, confirmed, on Friday, that four of its personnel, a lieutenant colonel, said to be the commander of its Brass unit, and three others were missing-in-action, MIA, in Bayelsa creek.  He had stated on Thursday, few hours after the incident, that the situation was still hazy.

According to the militant leader, who maintained that they were pushed to the wall, “We, ex-militants, under the third phase of the amnesty programme have vowed to continue attacks and killings in the Niger-Delta until the government includes us in the programme. This is our promise, since they do not want to listen to us”.

‘Gunmen not part of post-amnesty’

Kuku asserted, “If the activities, as you have stated, are carried out by those you said are under the third phase amnesty, please, the Amnesty Office has no business with them because they are not part of the programme”.
“I have deemed it important to give you this status update to emphasise the fact that the Amnesty Office under my humble self has been efficiently discharging its mandates to the 26,358 Niger Delta ex-agitators enrolled in the Amnesty Programme”, the presidential adviser stressed.

“Beyond the 26,358 ex-agitators who stepped out to accept the offer of amnesty as at when due and got enrolled in the Amnesty Prgramme, the Amnesty Office owes no obligations to other persons. The Amnesty Office is not admitting and has not been directed by His Excellency, President Goodluck Ebele Jonthan, GCFR, to admit new entrants into the Amnesty Programme”.

According to him,  “Our programme is for registered agitators who accepted amnesty within the period of the amnesty proclamation and because of our successful implementation of the programme, which is why many people, who call themselves agitators want to be part of it”.

“In all the empowerment and training programmes in the Niger-Delta, the amnesty programme is the one that has made the boldest impact and touched the lives of the people, that is why they are doing everything to be part of it, including resorting to violence and all that”, he asserted.

Kuku said the mandate the Amnesty Office did not include  third phase ex-militants and since it was the business of the JTF, police, navy, governors of the respective states as chief security officers to maintain peace, they should  put in place measures that will guarantee peace in Niger-Delta.

He said if the Federal Government throws the amnesty programme open for everybody and makes funds available for the exercise, the Amnesty Office would carry out the order to the letter, but for now, nobody should paint his office in bad light for doing no evil.

According to him, the position of government on the post-amnesty programme, whether inclusion of more persons or otherwise,  should be defended by the appropriate security agencies in a manner that would not cause breach of peace in the region.

‘How we overpowered soldiers’
Contrary to reports that they were pirates, the ex-militant leader said, “We are not pirates. We are ex-militants who the Federal Government refused to accommodate in the amnesty programme after the Minister of Niger-Delta, Elder Godsday Orubebe, Special Adviser to the President on Niger-Delta and Chairman of the Post-Amnesty Programme, Hon. Kingsley Kuku, and others appealed to us to drop our arms and ammunition”.

He also said it was not true that his group opened fire on the military men, saying, “They were the ones that first opened fire at us and we retaliated”.

The ex-militant leader said it was easy to subdue the soldiers because he and his boys were under the protection of the Ijaw god of war.

According to him, unconfirmed reports stated that some of ‘our men have been killed but we are yet to get details of  the incident’.

He, however, debunked reports  that it was his group that also killed four policemen at a checkpoint, same day, in Bayelsa  State, saying, “There are many other groups moving about, I cannot say which of them now”.

Ex-militants sleep under bridges
He said that some of the ex-militants were presently sleeping under bridges, empty motor vehicles and uncompleted buildings as a result of the government’s unfulfilled promise to rehabilitate them, adding, “This is the crux of the matter.

Throwing more light on the encounter between the military personnel and his group as well as their catalogue of woes, he said, “The truth is that their gunboat was moving towards our direction and they opened fire first at us, but the bullet did not enter us and we fired at them because they started the battle,”Victor stated

“And one thing I want the government to know is that the soldiers are no match for us, they should not send them on a suicide mission against us, the best thing is to include us in the post-amnesty  programme.

“We were all involved in the Niger-Delta struggle. I  started from the Warri crisis, the Kaiama Declaration and the last one. Initially, we did not believe in the amnesty programme and feared to come out to participate, but we were told to drop our arms and be part of it”.

“Hon Kuku, Orubebe came round to say we should drop arms. After we listened to them, we have waited for years, nothing is happening, our people sleep under bridges, empty motor vehicles and uncompleted schools”.

The ex-militant leader said the aggrieved ex-militants resolved to send a delegation to Abuja to air their views but was stopped at Lokoja.

“We were called all kinds of names, that we are not ex-militants, that we are hoodlums and all that. But that is not the truth, they came to beg us drop arms and they are calling us names because we listened to them.

“It is not our intention to fight again but because we have been pushed to the wall, we are suffering, we are not benefitting from the amnesty programme they promised us.

“Now, we want to tell them that we are not what they call us, we want to fight them, since we gave them peace and they turned it down, we will give them what they want. They think that patrolling the waterways with army and navy people will scare us. They are too small for us, and we will finish them.

“What we did on Friday is just testing, we will fight them to the  finish, they will get graveyard peace, it can never be stable”.
According to him, “There will never be peace until they approve post-amnesty programme for the third phase ex-militants”.

“There are so many groups that have not been included. I have my own group, over 200 young men have been trained in guerilla warfare and we will neither retreat nor surrender”.

Our pact with MEND
On the relationship between the group and Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger-Delta, MEND, the chief militant group in the region, he said, “We are part of MEND, but our concern is the third phase amnesty matter. We fight the battle and MEND takes responsibility”.

JTF search for dead officers
Meanwhile, the JTF has  deployed men in the waterways and creeks of Nembe and Brass to track down the killers of their men.

“The military cannot declare a person dead unless the corpse is seen. That is why the soldiers were said to be missing in action. It is only when their corpses have been seen that you can say they are dead. And they have families. You cannot announce a person dead without evidence”, a military source added.

He said the JTF was searching for the corpses and the slain men’s arms.

We didn’t touch their arms – ex militants
On the men’s arms, the ex-militant leader said, “We did not touch their weapons.  I have nothing to do with their guns. Our problem is non-inclusion in amnesty programme, nothing more, nothing less.
“We left them when we saw that they were dead”, he added.

There was fresh panic in Bayelsa, on  Thursday, when four policemen and three military personnel were  killed by unidentified gunmen along the waterways of Nembe and Brass local government council areas of the state.
While the  policemen were reportedly killed at the Marine police checkpoint in the Nembe Creek at about 7a.m., the attack on the lieutenant colonel and the two naval ratings occurred at the Okpoama River junction at about 10a.m. on their way to Ogbia waterside.

The policemen and military men were said to have been ambushed by gunmen, who reportedly approached the marine police checkpoint and the two speedboats conveying the military personnel in two speed boats and opened fire on them.

Police authorities in the state confirmed that four of their men were killed by unidentified gunmen around the Nembe creek.

The state Commissioner of Police, Chris Olakpe, who was thrown into mourning, could not speak with newsmen on the incident, but the death was confirmed by spokesman, ASP, Emokpae Eguavoen.
He said the remains of four marine policemen were recovered.

The state government said in a statement that “only one military officer and two naval ratings were attacked with other passengers in a boat at Okpoama junction of the Brass-Ogbia route of the river”, but latest report indicated that four JTF personnel were missing.

The killing of police and military personnel came on the heels of the multiple dynamite attacks, audaciosly launched by some youths on some spots along the Opolo and Biogbolo areas of the state on the same stretch of road with the headquarters of the JTF.

But the state government dismissed the alleged dynamite attacks, in a statement issued by the Senior Special Assistant to the Governor on Media and Public Affairs, Mr. Daniel Iworiso-Markson, saying that the reported dynamite explosions was not correct.

Furore over death of Abuja bombings suspect

In the meantime, Niger Delta activists and Lagos lawyer, Festus Keyamo, raised the alarm, weekend, over the death in Kuje Prisons, Abuja of one of the suspects, arrested in connection with the October I, 2010 bombings in Abuja during the independence day celebrations, Tiemkenfa Osvwo, alias “Gen” Gbokos, who was a militant leader.

The activists, Ankio Briggs and spokesman of the defunct Niger-Delta Liberation Force, NDLF, “Captain” Mark Anthony said “Gen” Gbokos died as a result of poisonous chemicals he inhaled when prisons officials fumigated the prisons and refused to open their locked cells.

They said that some other inmates were in critical condition as a result of the fumigation.

Keyamo, who is a lawyer to the deceased, said, in a statement, “On Saturday March 3, 2012, one of the suspects in the case (October 1, 2010 bombing) by the name, Tiemkenfa Francis Osvwo, alias General Gbokos, died in the Kuje Prison.

“His death came on the heels of series of complaints by counsel representing him and his co-accused about the maltreatment meted out on the accused persons by the Nigerian Government in custody.

“The sickness leading to the death of General Gbokos started when their cell was fumigated with a strange substance on the 8th of January, 2012, which affected the health of all the four suspects. Suffice it to reiterate that we, their solicitors raised alarm about that development at the time.

“Prior to his death in custody, ‘Gbokos’ had been urinating and defecating on himself in the prison and despite pleas by his solicitors requesting that he be treated properly, no one attended to him.

“On the 21st of February, 2012, he collapsed in court which stalled hearing for that day but despite the order of the court on the day in question that he be medically attended to by the Prisons authorities, no medication were administered on him. It was obvious therefore that the authorities wanted him dead.

“May we for the umpteenth time resound our alarm that other accused persons in the October 1, 2010 bombing still in Kuje Prisons are facing similar conditions that claimed the life of Osvwo”.

He went on: “At this juncture, we are constrained to state that we find it extremely inequitable that virtually all the suspects linked to the Boko Haram bombings have been enjoying bail while our clients, the alleged masterminds of the October 1, 2010 bombings, (still presumed innocent) continue to suffer indignities in custody”.

“We, therefore, respectfully, call on all well-meaning Nigerians to join in the call for their bail and the Nigerian Government to facilitate the release of the other suspects in custody with a view to attending to their deteriorating health before they die in custody”, he asserted.

http://news.yahoo.com/kadhafis-son-seif-arrested-ntc-111431636.html


Ousted Libyan leader Moamer Kadhafi's fugitive son Seif al-Islam and one-time successor has been arrested in the south of the country, a senior National Transitional Council official said on Saturday.

Seif al-Islam, who is wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC), was "arrested in southern Libya" by former rebel forces, NTC justice minister Mohammed al-Allagui told AFP, declining to give any details.

As the last top figure of the Kadhafi regime to have evaded capture or not to have escaped abroad, news of his arrest was greeted in Tripoli by gunmen firing into the air in celebration and the honking of car horns.

It came a day before the NTC was expected to name a new government.

The operations chief of former rebels in Zintan, Bashir Taib, told a news conference that his fighters had arrested Seif along with three aides in the Ubari region of southern Libya.

Kadhafi's son will be taken to Zintan, 170 kilometres (110 miles) southwest of Tripoli, he said.

The ICC issued warrants on June 27 against Seif al-Islam, 39, as well as his father and Abdullah al-Senussi, the late dictator's intelligence chief, on charges of crimes against humanity in crushing anti-regime protests.

Seif defied premature reports of his arrest in August during the fall of Tripoli to rebel forces, confidently surfacing before news cameras outside a hotel used by foreign journalists.

The ICC's prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo predicted on November 9 that the arrest of Seif, regarded as a reformist in Kadhafi's regime before the revolt broke out in mid-February, was just a matter of time.

"The question is not if he will be arrested, it's when," he told a news conference at the court's headquarters in The Hague. "It's a matter of time, Seif will face justice, that's his destiny."

A week earlier, the prosecutor told the UN Security Council that the ICC had "received questions from individuals linked to Seif al-Islam about the legal conditions attaching to his potential surrender."

Seif's representatives had asked what would happen to him if he appeared before judges and the various conviction and acquittal possibilities, the prosecutor told the Security Council which referred the Libya case to the ICC.

ICC investigators have visited Libya to collect more evidence in the case against Seif and also into allegations of mass rapes by Kadhafi forces during the crackdown against protesters before the revolt turned into full-blown civil war.

Kadhafi himself was killed on October 20 when forces of Libya's new regime stormed his home town of Sirte.

Five days later, a Tuareg official in Niger said that both Seif and Senussi were poised to enter the country from southern Libya, while on October 27 security sources said the former intelligence chief had reached Mali.

Libyan TV is reporting that Muammar Gaddafi has been captured by NTC fighters in Sirte.

Jamal abu-Shaalah, a field commander of NTC, told Al Jazeera that the toppled leader had been seized, but it was not clear whether he was dead or alive.

Gaddafi is captured and is wounded, Abdel Majid, another NTC official, told the Reuters news agency.

"He's captured. He's wounded in both legs , He's been taken away by ambulance," the senior NTC military official said.

An NTC official also said that Abu Bakr Younus Jabr, the head of Gaddafi's armed forces, was killed during the capture of Gaddafi.

The news came shortly after NTC claimed capturing Sirte, Gaddafi's hometown, after weeks of fighting.

NATO and the US state department said it cannot confirm the reports of Gaddafi's capture. He has not been seen since NTC fighters seized Tripoli, the Libyan capital.

It is the good fortune of many to live distant from the scene of sorrow; the evil is not sufficiently brought to their doors to make them feel the precariousness with which their property is possessed.” Thomas Paine
I regard as unfortunate all that has occurred in the North African state of Libya, and I declare illegal the present occupation of the once-free nation by rebel war lords backed by insidious neo-colonialist western forces. This aforementioned statement represents my personal view and stance on the Libyan-crisis and the forceful eviction of Colonel Muammar Gaddafi.

I do not in any way support the tyrannical manner with which Muammar Gaddafi ruled his people; neither will I support the hideous attempt by the imperialist West to impinge on the Sovereignty of a State. The urgency with which Sarkozy, Cameron and Robert Gates went around with papers conducting secretarial duties for the United Nations was quite amazing also, and one could easily have forgotten that Libya was entrenched inside the African continent. One cannot also ignore the expedient manner with which heavy arms and artilleries where moved into the African state; I only hoped this expediency had been employed in the Darfur crisis that lingered for more than a decade and the current Kordofan crisis in South Sudan, maybe that region would have been calmer by now. But of course, there were no altruistic intentions in this invasion of Africa, and only the plundering of the oil reserves of Libya kept the Western forces going.

http://www.sunnewsonline.com/webpages/features/freekick/2011/oct/18/freekick-18-10-2011-002.html.


One of the articles from the U.N. Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples (14 Dec 1960) reads; "All States shall observe faithfully and strictly the provisions of the Charter of the United Nations, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the present Declaration on the basis of equality, non-interference in the internal affairs of all States, and respect for the sovereign rights of all peoples and their territorial integrity." I really wonder where France missed out the part about 'non-interference in the internal affairs of all states' before it decided to sponsor a coup d'état against a legitimate regime and the free people of Libya? The most devious form of Tyrants always find ways to selectively interpret laid down laws to achieve their sinister aims, and justice can NEVER be truly dispensed with selective application of the law.

Very much unlike Iraq and Afghanistan before it, Libya had a more stable socio-economical atmosphere and there was hardly any broken spot on hedge for the western serpent to creep in. Like a fox seeking to feast on a bird locked in a cage, the West kept circling Libya with keen preying eyes, watching, waiting for the any opportunity to pounce on the richest oil state in Africa. One cannot help but hypothesize that the so-called Arab Revolution that began in Algeria last year was all a carefully planned plot that was intended to end in the seizure of Libya! One cannot understand how the UN Resolution 1973 which sought to simply implement a 'no-fly zone' quickly turned into a 'regime change' campaign. Was NATO's involvement in this crisis not clearly defined from the onset as a neutral 'civilian-protection' operation and not a mercenary-styled, rebel-backing offense against the legitimate government of a sovereign state? The sovereignty of the Libyan state was never in contention, there was no call from any group seeking secession, but just an internal uprising from certain sections of the citizenry intoxicated with the adrenaline that shoots off from just watching the Egyptian, Yemeni and Syrian youths fight rowdily against their own governments.

It is the duty of any responsible government to protect the citizens from external and internal aggression, and clearly Colonel Muammar Gaddafi was doing the later. I did not see any NATO tanks and fighter jets heading into Darfur when clearly Omar Bashir was killing the Sudanese people! I do not see Sarkozy running around like a man whose wife is in the labor-room as Syrian leader Bashir Al Assad continues to crackdown violently against the dissenting voices in the country. Simple, the west is in deep economic crisis and placing their hands on Libya's several oil wealth would no doubt ease the pressure on their books.

I cannot help but compare the economic status of Nigeria to that of Post-Imperialist anarchy Libya and wonder to myself what moral right this sheepish government has to denounce Gaddafi's government? According to the CIA Factbook, as at 2009, Libya was producing 22 million Megawatts of electricity as against the meager 3,500 Megawatts that is being celebrated at Aso rock. Libya had over 77% of the Adult male population gainfully employed and inflation rate well below 3% and it's GDP per-capita stood at $14,000 at December 2010 as against $2500 GDP per-capita and 13.8% inflation rate for Nigeria.

Libya had enough economic sanctions placed on it to cripple it, yet it still fended for its people! Nigeria has practically no embargo, produces just a little below the same quantity of Crude oil produced by Libya, But has absolutely no regard for its citizens, and through corruption keeps them in a perpetual state of poverty (Over 70% of Nigerians live below the poverty line)! What international moral right does Nigeria even have to make any comment on the Libyan issue? For me the answer is none!!! Whilst the other scavengers at least have some profitable albeit sinister reason for aligning with a rebel group, Nigeria is only jerking to the master's whistle. I salute the courage of countries like Zimbabwe, Ghana, South Africa and Venezuela for seeing past the charade of NATO's 'citizen protection' crusade cum regime change.
I look a few years into the future of this once prosperous African state and behold the seething inter-tribe conflict that would be ravaging it!

Guy, the truth about it is that, welders also earn more salary in 9ja like libya. its depends on the type of welder, welder structural welder or pipe welder. if you need a good paying job as a welder, Go to oil n gas construction sites in bayelsa, Ph, warri and join the association of welders. that is only if you have the skill. then you will be paid a good salary. atleast, in 9ja. a qualified Pipe welder 6G gets at least 180 to 220k per month. I am a qualified CSWIP inspector and i kw how much welders are earning in 9ja. even better than welders in the middleast. See, 9ja 6G welders cant work in the Mideast cos what they earn in 9ja is far better than going far to libya or middleast. Well, in the UK, gud salary as a welder. But 9ja is still a gud place to work if u r qualify and you join the association for welders in 9ja being the only ticket to get a good earning job. Regarding your going back. well, try luk well ooo.

Deji.Ariyo.

Thanks so much for the Post, its really interesting. Please don't mind all those ppl who see things on the opposite side always. I have worked in Libya and at least i can testify to all your comments and contributions. CNN, Aljaserra, and other media houses are just given us fake informations working with our minds and thinking. Just imagine, we heard over the news that the rebels have taken over Tripoli few days back, but there are still shooting and fighting in Tripoli. I am brother Leader supporter and i know people of Libya wont appreciate him now until the whole system changed. For me Gaddafi is one of the BEST African Leader ever, Unlike our so cal follow follow African Leaders, All they know is to hear & follow up with Western world wish, We shall see the end point.

Yah, it is Possible, I met my Fiancee online, We chatted for about 5months before we had an arrangement to meet in DUBAI. To my surprise she came & that marked the beginning of our Relationship. In fact, I thought it wont work, But she is one of the BEST ever, We are planning to get Married soon by God's grace.

U r a stupid IDiOT>,

dis kind prince sef . Im no dey rub correct cream. He's too dark.

U want make the prince look like former Oyo state Governor, (Akara), I beg Prince you too fine jare, BLACK & SHINE.

I believe most ppu just talk anyao witot gettn to know details on issues. I am an expatriate and i  worked in Libya for 2years. Gadhafi really tried for his ppu unlyk 9ja where notin is working. it will be difficult for u to see  a Libyan citizen working in other country. they have stable lite, their economy is okey, and they are all living comfortable,  I think the western world jst want to unseat him due to his nutty actions against them, and he gives no damn abt any of them, Let us all  fold our hands and see whtz gonna apen to Libyan ppu leta,  I wont be surpriz if they regret their actions later,

PRESIDENT Goodluck Jonathan has assured that his administration would do all that it could to ensure that the country attained uninterrupted power supply in Nigeria before the end of its tenure in 2015.

He made the declaration on Tuesday in the State House, Abuja during an audience with members of the board of the Niger Delta Power Holding Company led by Vice-President Namadi Sambo.

Jonathan said that the Federal Government was constantly mindful of the critical importance of steady power supply for national development, and would, therefore, do everything possible to ensure that all its plans and projects to guarantee stable power supply were successfully implemented.

According to him, “we all know the importance of power. We look forward to a time when Nigerians can enjoy uninterrupted power supply from the beginning to the end of a year and we are working hard to ensure that that objective is attained within the life-span of this administration.”

The president urged members of the board and  themanagement of the  company to ensure that the company, which was established to oversee the implementation of National Integrated Power Projects (NIPP) funded by the three tiers of government in the country, contributes very effectively to meeting the country’s power supply needs.

In his remarks, Vice- President Sambo assured the president that the company would deliver all the medium-size gas-fired NIPP power generating stations, as well as associated transmission projects on schedule to ensure that the administration’s promise of steady power supply was fulfilled.
