Too bad... ...I clamor again for regionalism...its high time the FG talked to the Niger delta...call for referendum and give a time line for nigeria to embrace true federalism...The FG needs to agree to a practice that will save nigeria...diversification of our economy is not to be done on papers and white boards...The time is now...let us rest in this country once and for all...


A country filled with so much marginalisation and nepotism...

The Zoo is finally gone! Lets see how the funds to Rebuild Northeast and the Grazing Herdsmen will .be generated

Come to their level and do what? Grant them secession?

Whenever I hear the word patriotism I feel like throwing up. where was patriotism when APC used Boko Haram as campaign point to swayed u guys to vote out our son? u guys called our son all sorts of names because of Boko Haram that was introduced to make his government ungovernable.
I am not supporting them, but pls just keep the bleep and allow us to hear something with your patriotism sermon. I could remember how Nyako, former governor of Adamawa state wrote letter to the Northern states, telling them that Jonathan is using Boko Haram to reduce their population because of 2015 and all of you praised him. where were you when Boko Haram struck any day Jonathan was to go for campaign? where were you when Jonathan was stoned in the northern states of Bauchi, Katsina and Gombe? where were you when you guys mystified anybody supporting Jonathan, u guys treated him like an outcast because he is from a tribe that their votes alone can't make him win.
Nigeria is very very ungrateful to the Niger Delta region and I don't give a dam to all these cry on social media

I'm non partisan but Buhari messed up seriously in his handling of this situation.

Jonathan was not voted for in some states of the north in 2011 but he didn't go about classifying Nigerians into enemies and friends.

More importantly. GEJ's supporters didn't go about ridiculing those who didn't vote for him.
A little show of magnanimity in victory is expected of a true leader.

A little diplomacy using backdoor channels would have averted this debacle that has engulfed the Niger Delta. Talk tough as a president but more importantly, use those channels and without a single boot on the ground you get yourself a win-win situation.

Buhari left it too late and at best, what he gets is a pyrrhic victory.

MaziOmenuko:
Keep bombing, pipelines aren't that expensive, we shut down the flow stations, get new pipes and get it working within 3 days. Its more like a rupture to a flow line, a temporary setback that wont cost much; no biggie... Chevron has already fixed all the ones u guys blew up, it's not rocket science.

Everyday is for the thief, I will be here when people will start screaming genocide and selective witch-hunting when you are finally dealt with.

For those blaming Buhari, maybe you don't know the efforts govt has made so far to negotiate with these guys. A group was invited and after negotiations and agreement, NNPC trunk lines was bombed and NDA stated boldly that the want secession.
All these ijaw groups asking for negotiations just wants to make some money out of the whole situation.
These guys don't want anything other than to disrupt govt, disrupt the EFCC cases against them. They had already stockpiled arms during the boko haram arm scandal. Their chief sponsor is already claiming to be on exile. He fortified them prior to election and they are already acting out the scripts.

Mourning endureth for a while, but joy sure cometh in the morning. NDA, we will defeat you. You can take that to the bank.

AZeD1:
Don't rewrite history. Boko haram started around the Yar'Adua era and it was Yar'Adua who killed the boko haram founder.
Also note that it was a PDP member (Lawal) who said they'll make the country ungovernable for GEJ, hence the reason why the late Gen Azazi a Bayelsa son said "PDP is boko harm, boko haram is PDP."

dBard:
I guess this is what they meant by 'shock the world' or is there something worse in d offing
I agree with @ untainted tho.


Forest fires usually start from lil tins...
If the perception (which are d ppls reality) in d south,of d f.g was wholesome, u won't have dis tacit support for these militants and it would have died a natural death.

Secondly too, I see a far more professional hand behind-the-scenes coordinating (tactically)

That is where you get it entirely wrong. You CANNOT compel the Federal Government with violence. That is treason and an assault on its sovereignty, which it is obligated to defend with all the resources at its disposal.

AZeD1:
People seem to forget that nature abhors vacuum.
The NDA might think they are making a statement, they actually don't know they are helping the country get off oil.

Skywalker5:
Parasites? come on man. Is that how you look at other states or tribes? You should know at the end of the day, we are all in this together. If there is anyone to blame, it has always been the people ruling. They steal all the money and then brainwash you that its other people 's fault. I wish people could just open their eyes and see that the general public is not the enemy,its the rich who steal money and divert your attention. With this bombing now,someone is making money and its obvious the rich sponsoring the militant to blow up infrastructures.The people of the states they just destroyed will suffer and lose jobs because some people want to prove a point to the whole of Nigeria.

Skywalker5:
Yes, my point exactly. The rich guys but there has to be a way to solve this. [b]This will cripple the economy and everyone will be affected. The rich will still be rich. [/b]This kind of action only affects the common people.

You know what I'm saying here, this "military clampdown" he chose will lead to war and we Nigerians will be affected not those useless politicians and leaders because they have the money.... But this people will keep bombing and go back to their caves.... They are deadly.... Simply negotiate with them.... these are not Boko Harams that can't wreck the economy in a short time.... this people can wreck the economy in a month
