How would you then react to the report that the government now employs ex-militants in the Niger Delta region to protect oil installations and pay them in millions?

They are preparing for secession. It is not for the oil. What happens to the military? What happens to the police? Where are your SSS? Where are your several governmental agencies? Let no one deceive us. We are too old for that kind of gimmicks. Do you know the number of arms that have got into the Niger Delta through bunkering? Government knows, our leaders too know. No genuine educated human being will want to identify himself as a militant. It is a derogatory name; it is not a name that anybody will want to be identified with. But they have become something to the extent that people now cherish them, instead of treating them like common criminals which they are. Yet, they are being given first class treatment. Why can’t Boko Haram too continue and remain there? My quarrel with Boko Haram is their refusal to come out and say what they want rather than bombing churches and mosques. If they come out to say this is what we want, then one will be able to say that they should be recognized because Nigeria has set a precedent. But they are not coming out. Nobody is seeing them and they are living among us. Nigeria’s security agencies will say they don’t know where they are hiding. There are certain things too sensitive to reduce to media publication. When some of us are invited by the government, we will be able to tell them the home truth. If they want to heed to advice, it will help this country.
