THE PRESIDENCY, weekend, asked
Ijaw communities in Gbaramatu Kingdom,
Warri South-West Local Government Area,
Delta State, where ex-militants carried out a
three-day bombing of crude oil and gas
pipelines some weeks ago, to hand over to
the security operatives, perpetrators of the
bomb attack believed to be hiding in their
areas.


The presidency also urged the communities
not to entertain fear of bombardment by
security agencies, but to demonstrate
patriotism by handing over suspects
behind the recent bombing.


The Presidential directive came through the
Special Adviser to the President on Media
and Publicity, Mr. Femi Adesina, yesterday,
just as the JTF, which boasted, penultimate
week, that it was closing in on the
perpetrators, started arresting more
suspects for interrogation at the weekend.


The crackdown on the suspected bombers
by the task force heightened tension in
most Ijaw communities with some leaders,
the Ijaw Youth Council, Ijaw Peoples
Development Initiative, IPDI and others,
calling on the government and task force to
be lawful in their action.


Adesina said: “Ijaw communities need not
fear. What they can rather do is to hand
over culprits hiding in their midst to the
authorities. If they have identified those who
blew up pipelines, and who are taking
refuge in their communities, as good
citizens, they should hand them over to law
enforcement agents.


“Ijaws are Nigerians and good ones too.
They should not allow a little leaven to
destroy the whole lump. Rather, they should
demonstrate patriotism by giving up
evildoers. Such exists everywhere, and the
onus is on good people not to shelter them.
“There are rules of engagement for every
operation, and you can be sure that the
Nigerian military will do what is right,” he
stated.

And Ijaw communities directed Federal govt to hand over Buhari to them for crimes against humanity.

Those who have ears should hear ooo!! I no wan hear human right violation, the community and govt should resolve this amicably

odi egwu

I saw this coming.

How can you tell communities that are under siege by bunkerers and pipeline vandals to hand over their captors oppressors? Those guys are well armed!
You think they wouldn't have been rid of those vandals for long if could?

Nigerian authorities always take the wrong approach to solving problems.
I suggest they also order the N'Esterners (and all herdsmen), including all moslems to handover every terrorist among them.
