You de see wetin I de talk ani? Make all these self-promoted Generals respect themselves and not bring trouble to the Niger Delta o.

In fact, I, General Barcanista will lead troops into the creek to deal with any troublemaker decisively!

General Barcanista and his palm wine drinking Liberation Front Defence Forces.

Lmaooooo.

Tompolo days are numbered if he does not turn away from militancy. The days of liverless GEJ are over. This is PMB. Ask Maitastine, Chadians and now BH and Massob. If you are a General, then PMB is a Field Marshall and Buratai, the no-nonsense General is there to carry out the orders to the letter.

This is FG, you cannot hold the country to ransom under PMB. You will be pursued and arrested at ALL cost, even if a nuclear missile will have to be used, even if Gbaramatu will be turned to Hiroshima and Nagasaki or wiped off the map of the world like Sodom and Gomorrah.

Protect criminality and criminals and you and your household shall be treated as facilitators of criminals and aiding and abetting such such a crime. There shall be no hiding place for any criminal.

Ipods and wailers are trying to destabilise ND with their lies using their numerous blogs.

Settle out of court bawo?

The Lunatic Bleaching Yellow Pawpaw and potential murderer and rebel must not be freed.

Aresa/Arresa will never agree with you on this! As a matter of fact he will insult you and call you IPod tout..

I am sure he will be civil. There is no crime in having divergent view but all views must be subjected to superior argument.

frankyychiji:
Ok. So i will be made to pay #50 for every 1k i deposit in the bank despite paying my income tax and vat on items. Hmmmm...this policy should have been expunged from wherever it contained, its anti-people.

It is not every 1k but every deposit above 1k.

If you deposit 1million you will be charged 50naira. If you deposit 1k 10times, you will charged 50naira 10times too.

Metuh handcuffed our 400milla, it is only fair and just to handcuff him too.

If someone that stole Nokia 3310 could be handcuffed, then the person that is daring enough to steal 400milla should be neckcuffed.

frankyychiji:
Ok I will. But why is the revenue accruing not funneled into the TSA? Just curious.

It will still go into the TSA.

The various banks will remit from the dedicated accounts they opened for this purpose, directly into TSA based on remittance periods stated by CBN.

frankyychiji:
Can you please quote or show us the part of the constitution where you are drawing your conclusion from?

It is not part of the constitution. It is an Act on its own called Stamp Act.

Read it up.

The Lunatic Bleaching Yellow Pawpaw aka "our Dilector " should have also requested not to be tried by the new judge and we would have seen how long he can keep eating the watery beans.

Ship the Messiah of Alaigbo to Kuje Prison, let him use short sleeve an knicker-burger to make ridges for Government.

By the time the Zoo is through with you, your case will be worse than that of a domesticated toothless lion.

MILITANTS who blew up crude oil and gas pipelines in Delta State for three days last week, have beat a retreat following an intensive manhunt for them by operatives of the Joint Task Force in the Niger Delta and appeals by traditional rulers and concerned leaders of Ijaw ethnic nationality.

Riverine dwellers in affected communities in Warri South-West Local Government Area, who spoke to Vanguard on phone, said that there was relative calm, yesterday,  following the overpowering presence  of soldiers who invaded some communities and suspected hideouts of the militants.

One of them, John Preye, said: “The restriction on movements has been relaxed, people can now go about without the kind of search soldiers subjected us to on Saturday and Sunday.”

Vanguard gathered that many Ijaw traditional rulers contacted known leaders of militant groups in their areas and threatened to hold them responsible if soldiers bombarded their communities because of their activities.

The Commander of JTF, Major-Genera Alani Okunola, boasted on Sunday during inspection of bombed gas pipelines at Egwa II, that the task force was closing in on the militants and would fish them out.

A close aide to one of the militant leaders confided in Vanguard: “Many traditional rulers actually called to appeal that we should simmer down because soldiers will seize the opportunity to bombard our communities and kill innocent persons.”


Scene of the pipeline bombings
Meanwhile, the state governor, Senator Ifeanyi Okowa, who condemned the mindless destruction, yesterday, lamented that the state was “bleeding again” because of the attacks.

However, chieftains of the All Progressives Congress, APC, in Warri South-West Local Government Area reacted to the insinuation by ex-militant leader, Government Ekpemupolo, alias Tompolo, that they were responsible for the bombing, saying that Tompolo should stop the distraction and face the consequences of his action.

One of the leaders, Chief Ayiri Emami, who decamped from the Peoples Democratic Party, PDP, to APC before the last presidential election said, “They should not run away from what they have done and accuse APC. They should mention the person in APC and let security agents investigate that person.”

Despite the relative calm, soldiers continued their reconnaissance operation in the creek yesterday, as several Ijaw groups condemned the invasion of communities by the task force and suggested a political solution to the impasse between Tompolo and the Federal Government.

Delta is bleeding again —Okowa

Okowa, in a statement by his Chief Press Secretary, Charles Aniagwu, said that the bombing was an attack on the soul of the state and urged Deltans to assist security agencies with relevant information to unmask the criminals behind the pipelines bombing.

He noted that the mindless devastation was purely a criminal act and no leader or politician should incite one ethnic nationality against another because of the incidents.

His words: “These attacks should be condemned by all well meaning Nigerians, particularly compatriots in the Niger Delta. This is an attack on our soul. The state is bleeding again and its implication for the economy and image of Delta state is grave.

“Do not be part of this crime and refuse to listen to any leader or politician who would want to pitch one ethnic nationality against another as a result of these incidents. The destruction of oil facilities is purely criminal and we reject attempts to label it otherwise.”

We know the bombers —Emami

“We all know those carrying out the bombing. They should stop telling lies and own up to what they have done. Some of us have volunteered to help the security agencies with information on who is carrying out the attacks. Everybody, including Tompolo, should also give information.

“We know those carrying out the bombings. Tompolo and I, with our positions, cannot say that we do not know those responsible for the bombings. If he says he is not the one, he should give security agents information on who is doing it,” Emami said.

He added: “If we do not do the right thing now, the hoodlums carrying out the attacks will continue and from there, they will veer into sea piracy and thereafter, crisis will start. That was how the Warri crisis started. Nobody is wishing for another Ijaw and Itsekiri war, but I am talking from experience of what happened in the past.”

We’re at the receiving end —Ijaw communities

A coalition of Ijaw communities in Gbaramatu Kingdom has urged the conflicting parties in the kingdom to refrain from resuming armed confrontation and the destruction of oil and gas pipelines in the area.

Speaking on behalf of the coalition, the chairman, Enekorogha community in Warri South-West Local Government Area, Mr. Chris Ejoh, urged perpetrators of the dastardly act to refrain from subjecting Gbaramatu to another round of crisis since the communities would be the ones to suffer the brunt of their actions.

Expressing anxiety over the aftermath of the crisis, Ejoh said that since the attacks, the companies have suspended work on several ongoing pipeline repair projects in Enekorogha and other Ijaw communities, including the Escravos-Warri oil/gas pipeline, and workers evacuated, while militants bombed others near[ng completion.

He lamented that the unfortunate incident has led to the sabotage of Abiteye Flow Station belonging to Chevron and other pipelines from Opuekeba to Dibi and Olero in Warri North Local Government Area of the state.

Women flay military invasion

The Ijaw Women Connect, IWC, worldwide, has added its voice to those condemning the recent invasion and attack on five Ijaw communities in Gbaramatu, Delta State, by soldiers.

Speaking to Vanguard yesterday, IWC spokesperson, Vivian Elenwo, explained that given the coercive approach of the Federal Government as orchestrated in these communities, Ijaw women will not fold their arms and turn deaf ears to the issue.

The group appealed to President Muhammadu Buhari to call the soldiers who invaded the communities to order, saying that innocent lives would be lost in the battle besides the negative impact on the nation’s economy.

. And all the buildings in that area have approval including some makeshift 'musks'

Does that still give anybody the license to build an illegal structure without approval or to deviate from the approved plan of the authority in question?

The Lunatic Bleaching Yellow Pawpaw aka "our Dilector " how market?

It is very easy to be running your tap water mouth on air with your Satanic station. Now your so called zoo will not only jail you for 250years, but also sentence you to death by decapitation or by burying you alive in the hot sands of Sahara Desert. Even your ghost will b imprisoned.

Something is an Act, a law in its own right and your are here debating something that is not debatable.

FG only implemented the law. How is that a crime?

We are too used to lawlessness in this country to the extent that we now believe it is the right way of life.

Never knew the group has these number of companies in its arsenal!!!

When I was questioning the rationale behind some of the projects of the bearded governor 3years ago, some of his paid e-charlatans and religious bigots were attacking me for not being optimistic. Where has the optimism led the state now?

What is the sense behind the airport if is not an airport for uplifting of daily farm.produce especially perishables eg tomatoes peppers to Europe or other parts of the world OR it is a major Aircraft maintenance hub for airlines in Africa, in conjunction with Boeing or Airbus? None of these is the case.

What is the rationale behind Opon Imo, when the same amount of.money would have set up physical world class libraries with books and e-books in at least 3 Senatorial Districts?

What is the logic is making students to wear same uniform throughout the state, which is being produced by his family member, when we are not in North Korea or Cambodia?

What is the rationale behind change of name of the state and it's attendant cost on letter head, sign posts, print on vehicles etc. Was it worth it?

The projects were simply white elephant projects to steal money with his commissioner for finance.

The guy successfully ran the state bankrupt and if PMB is sincere with his corruption battle, he should beam his search light on Osun.

Alas! it’s all about morality. While some are complaining that their brother was in handcuffs, another tribe took it upon themselves to boo their own brother because his name was mentioned in a scandal.

Leader of SDP, Chief Olu Falae on Sunday told worshippers at the historic St. David’s Cathedral, Ijomu street, Akure that he was not involved in the massive diversion and looting of security funds traced to ex-NSA, Colonel Sambo Dasuki (rtd) and other notable politicians and media executives.

Chief Falae, amidst boos explained that the N100million, which the former BOT chairman of the PDP, Chief Tony Anenih, gave to him was in no way connected to the NSA funds.

He said he never got any money from Dasuki like others and that the cash he got was for logistics for voters’ mobilization in the alliance forged between the SDP and Goodluck Jonathan’s party (PDP).

Chief Falae who is a regular worshipper at the church said that he had appeared on some media outlets to clear his name off the raging scandal, disclosed that he had furnished the Bishop of Akure Anglican Diocese, Right Reverend Simeon Borokini the trait papers on the transfer made to him by Chief Tony Anenih. He said a copy of the same document had been deposited with the Provost of the Cathedral, Very Revd Osotayo.

He promised to continue to engage the media to exonerate himself over the heightening allegations.

I hope people can see the difference between Falae and Metuh’s actions? Yet his people still booed him.

Before we jump into conclusion based on religious bias, was there an approval in place for the building?

If yes, please meet the Secretary of NCCF for a photoshot of one and put in on NL.

I hope Amaechi is not referring to ''Mr. Citizen Jerryralph''.

Those rebellious people are always facing the Antarctica when everyone is going towards the Arctic.

Governors of the Odu’a Investment owner States rose from a meeting in Ibadan on Tuesday resolving on a five year plan to raise the revenue base of the conglomerate.

Reading the communiqué of the meeting, Ondo State Governor, Dr Olusegun Mimiko said the owner states resolved, among others, to raise the revenue base of the company from N4bn to N20bn in 2019.

Present at the meeting were Senator Ibikunle Amosun (Ogun), Ogbeni Rauf Aregbesola (Osun) and Deputy Governors Moses Adeyemo and Dr Kolapo Ishola of Oyo and Ekiti States respectively.

The meeting which had members of board of the Odu’a Companies in attendance was held at the Cocoa House, Ibadan.

The communiqué announced the resolution to admit Lagos State as one the owner States.

Mimiko said the owner states have agreed to reposition O’dua Investment as the engine room of the economic growth and development of the South West, and have approved a five-year strategic plan that will grow the company’s’ revenue base from N4b to 20bn by the year 2019

“We have agreed to admit Lagos State as part of Odua group. And because of this renewed interest in Odua as the engine room of the economic growth of the southwest. We as governors and proprietors so decided that we will now meet the board and management quarterly”

vanbonattel:
you mean Niger delta people are criminals, continuu

if you are a militant, kidnapper, economic saboteur, then you are a criminal that should be smoked out and roasted.

Living4christ:
u can never see it on internet, ask any importer or importer's buy u know .

Here comes another fabricated lies.

There is no policy anywhere. SW axis is where the market is because of the purchasing power of the people in that axis. Hence, importers will route their goods through Lagos.

Simple as ABC.

Go to your town hall meetings and demand that all your igbo brothers should be importing only through Onne and listen to their response.

Dare PMB with your criminality at your peril!!!!!!!!!!!!!

RUbbish.

He handcuffed our 400milla, he too should be handcuffed.

If NP can handcuff someone that stole 1,000, how much more 400milla, even if he is next to Pope, not to talk of a spokesperson of a looting corrupt and devilish party like PDP.

Living4christ:
How come u posted on a thread without reading it? The Op mentioned some things that makes importers not use onne port, one is the that all goods have to be cleared in Lagos which is one of the crippling policy.

Shows us the FG's policy that states all goods must be cleared in Lagos.

I do not understand why conducting a little research on the issue is your problem. What made the beer parlour opinion of the OP to be the correct FG's policy?

our cases are clearly of the blind leading the blind.

Living4christ:
Refer to the post for better understanding.

How does the post authenticate your dubious claim of Government crippling its own ports?
