No fewer than 642 militants on Friday asked the Federal Government to reclaim the ceded Bakass... stop attacks, Ijaw communities beg militants 2 Student feared killed In Gombe State During Water Protest NCC, MTN agree on delayed payment of N1.04tn fine No fewer than 642 militants on Friday asked the Federal Government to reclaim the ceded Bakassi Peninsular from Cameroon. The armed group, referred to as Bakassi Strike Force, said apart from not being carried along before, during and after the ceding process, indigenes of Bakassi had been neglected by the Federal Government and other local and international stakeholders. The militants, also known as Esighi group, had a one-hour boat display with heavy weapons around Esighi axis of Bakassi, before proceeding to Esuk-Mba. In a sheer display of its combat readiness, the group brandished weapons such as sophisticated gun boats, browning machine gun and rocket launchers, among others. While admitting that they would be ready to embrace amnesty if extended to them, leader of the group, Gen. Simply, also known as Humble Lion, said the people of Cross River and Akwa Ibom states had been sidelined by the Federal Government in the amnesty programme. Simply, who read from a prepared speech, said, “The Bakassi Strike Force is an indigenous group made up of youths from Akwa Ibom and Cross River states, totaling 642 foot soldiers. You will agree with me that Akwa Ibom and Cross River states are part of the Niger Delta region, yet we have been sidelined from the amnesty scheme and other empowerment programmes for the youth of the area. “Yet it will interest you to note that it is in Obubra, Cross River State, that the team of Niger Delta militants were hosted, when Bayelsa, Delta, Rivers, Edo and Ondo states refused to host the rehabilitation camp for the militants. “Again, the Federal Government took away our oil rich Bakassi from us and handed it over to Cameroon. We, as indigenes and habitants, were not consulted before this was done; neither was there any constitutional resettlement process initiated for the displaced persons. “To make matters worse, after taking over our land, the Cameroonian forces began to harass and molest our people. They even levied us with heavy taxes which became entirely unbearable. “Therefore, when it became obvious after several petitions that the federal and state governments were not ready to protect us and even the United Nations, we invited our Ijaw brothers who were already in the arms struggle to resist the Cameroonian operatives, but unfortunately, they embraced Federal Government amnesty programme when it was offered and abandoned us. “As indigenous youths, we have no other option than rise to defend ourselves from the oppression and injustice from the Cameroonian forces. The Federal Government should reclaim Bakassi from Cameroon.” Source: http://www.insidesafari.com/2016/06/militants-ask-fg-to-reclaim-ceded.html?m=1 2 Likes

KINGwax007: I'm really beginning think Buhari knew what he was doing when he asked for the retraction of troops from the region. Let them keep making a fool of themselves, the world is watching in 5D and will be able to judge fairly and accordingly when shiit hits the fan. I stay in the USA now. It's no easy when you tell people you from Nigeria and they are like "that country where you bomb your lands, cows roam about the place" etc? 1 Like |

Sweetlemon:these guys really think they cld ground the oil to zero production when Indo and Lagos will provide. The truth is that Dubai NEBER had the luxury we had when they discovered oil for just 25yr. They u utilized it to the max... Even if na only one 1million per barrel dem dey produce... Good u utilization will ensure a maximum output. I only wished the govt can allow them blow up all pipes then they can forget any 13% derivatives and Mead it out like the rest whom they have been collecting more than ten times their allocations without anything to show! |

The issue of bakassi is a forgotten one.There is an ICJ judgement seceding bakassi to Cameroon. There is absolutely nothing Pmb can do about bakassi, except they(the militants) want Nigeria to go to war with Cameroon. |

These militants are cowards, if they are so confident if their military prowess as showed by their weapons parade, why don't they venture into bakassi and dare ordinary Cameroonian gendarmes( I am not even talking of the military), they will be annihilated within days. They can only threatened Nigerian government because sentiments would not allow the government to deal with them. The greatest mistake Nigeria made was the so called "amnesty program " which basically was paying militants to keep the peace. It was like the militants blackmailed the federal government to continue paying out ransom to stop blowing pipelines , once the ransom stops, the criminals resumes their criminal activities. Another mistake Nigeria made was to make Jonathan a militant sympathizer president. He empowered the militants so much with monetary and political power that the militants weild so much power in the Niger delta. So much so that the militants were able to amass huge weapons stocks including war ships and maybe missiles. If the present government is not able to neutralize these militant groups, the nigerdelta would become a mini Somalia where warlords control different areas. 1 Like 1 Share |

Jorussia:Here is what is happening now. A hausa/fulani is at the helm of affairs, therefore these so-called militants from the Niger delta want everything, even that they know they can't have. And if they can't have it, then they use that as an excuse to cause havoc. This is the reality as is. |

by the time military will return to their homes, there won't be noise of genocide again. their elders should please call them to order, not for anything but for the aged and young innocent souls. I'm so confident that when military return fully, casualties will liter the ground and seems our military have gotten a crude idea of cleaning up the mess after creating one, e.g. the zaria Shiite militias. 1 Like |
