Niger Delta Avengers are freedom-fighters |

The latest madness consuming the blood-thirsty oil
thieves called Nigerian leaders and their vandals (the Army) is their decision to take
war to the people of Niger Delta. We hear that the devils from Northern Nigeria
(with support from their Yoruba counterpart from the West) have launched what
they call “Exercise Crocodile Smile” to train for war against Niger Delta freedom fighters, the Niger Delta
Avengers (NDA).
The Army reportedly declared during the week that
“The Nigerian Army will from this weekend commence another training exercise
codenamed ‘Exercise Crocodile Smile’ in 82 Division and part of two Division
areas of responsibility traversing South-south geo-political zone.”
At this juncture, it is important that those who
know how to reach these Nigerian devils inform them that while they are making
plans to attack the so-called Niger Delta, or South-south; they should equally
make plans to contend with the South-east once they commence hostilities. As
they plan to take on Ijaw people, they should also plan to take on Igbo people.
Their plans should therefore be on how to fight all Biafrans.
The days of dividing Biafrans to defeat them are
over. This time around Biafrans are together – hand in hand and shoulder to
shoulder. our ranks can no longer be broken. Pain on one is pain on all. If you
contend with anyone – Ijaw, Ibibio, Igala, Igbo, Idoma, Efik, Ogoja, and others
– be ready to contend with all. The time
is now to show these criminal Nigerians that we will stand to defend ourselves.
We will stand to defend our land. we sill stand to fight together.
We know who we are. We know we were same people
living together in peace and harmony before the British came to our land. Before
the British cobbled together this contraption they called Nigeria, which
expired in 2014, we were Biafrans, and we knew it.
If in doubt, consult the profile of Presbyterian
Church. Part of it reads: “Rev. Hope Masterton Waddell, arrived Calabar where
they set up the first congregation of what is now known as The Presbyterian
Church of Nigeria. From Calabar, the Church began to grow.
“In 1858, it was constituted as the Presbytery of
Biafra. This Presbytery of Biafra metamorphosed into the Presbyterian Synod of
Biafra in 1921. The Church continued to witness remarkable growth until 1945,
when the Presbyterian Church of Biafra was constituted, with the Synod as its
highest court. In the same year, the white missionaries handed over the Church
administration to Nigerians. The Presbyterian Church of Biafra became the
Presbyterian Church of Eastern Nigeria in 1952.”
So, we knew we were Biafrans, even before the Europeans
came. That was why when the time came in 1967 for our people to exit the evil
contraption that Britain created, Frank Opigo, former Principal of Okrika High
School, who hails from Oporoma in Bayelsa State, did not mince words. He
declared to His Excellency, Chukwuemeka Odumegwu-Ojukwu: “We are Biafrans; our
name is Biafra”.
Those who know the history can tell how we worked
together in peace and harmony as one people. We lived apart in a confederation,
but we were one people. Though living apart as separate peoples, we confederated
with love and understanding. Without Police or Army, we maintained a sane society;
we did not go to war with each other; we did not conquer one another; neither
did we make empires from one another. We knew we were great people because after
seeing the complex, but seamless societies we ran, the British describe us as the
“Great people of Biafra” in the treaty they signed with leaders of Biafra and
Itshekiri.
The above historical account is the major reason why
we will no longer be deceived by divide-and-rule tactics of evil Nigeria. This
is why any attack on Ijaw is an attack on Biafra, and so we will do everything
to defend Ijaw land.
Nigerian government with its evil Army says it wants
to go to war with the Avengers because they (the Avengers) have been bombing
oil pipelines. But we are asking them how what our people do with their
resources becomes a problem for Nigeria. A people say they no longer want the
resources in their land exploited, how does that concern Nigeria?
We Biafrans are not complaining why should Fulani
people from Feuta Djallon Mountain in Senegal and Yoruba people from Western
Nigeria complain? This is why we are sounding it loud and clear that Muhammadu
Buhari and his Northern Nigeria Islamic Army should not take war to Niger
Delta. If they want to fight Ijaw, they should be ready to fight the Igbo also.
An attack on Ijaw is an attack on, not only Igbo, but Biafra as a whole.
Nigerians are planning this war because they thought
it would be like before when while we are divided, squabbling and fighting one
another, they would attack a part and get away with it. Those days are gone. It
will never happen again. If one part of Biafra is attacked, the other parts
will no longer stand by and watch. Never! We will join the fight!
