babapupa:

nothing over there, they are all in London and North America, private bank accounts, private jets, bogus companies and weapons for militants and murderers.

Why is it so difficult for you guys to show us at least 1 or 2 pics of any meaningful project in the delta. There's got to be something,we're not talking about needle inside haystack.

Bilions of dollars and not a single pic? 

Lawd have mercy,

There is a topic, "The real Warri" thats been floating around. Start there.

Stop being evasive man! You can't hide the fact that you have never even crossed Ojota. Do you remember when you were referring to all Southern non Yoruba's that your governor gave jobs as IGBO. You are a bloody ignoramus man! Discussing with you is like watching a baby learn to crawl.

Visit the ND, see Warri, Calabar and PH. Get an education.

[/quote]Well! well! I saw this coming!
History will show you cannot negotiate with a rebel movement through bribery. Most Mend fighters will get nothing from the deal and most will eventually return to what they know best "armed warfare". If you know the history of the area then you will realize the only solution is total warfare to crush the insurrection once and for all. Contrary to popular stories Mend area gets more money than any other part of nigeria.
   The biggest problem in those areas are the so called kings and chiefs. It is the feudal system set up by the chiefs that is the worst. I have a feeling YARADUA IS A CUNNING guy and will finally onleash the military on these communities if hostility resumes. My prediction: The peace will not last and I expect hostilities to breakout soon. The militants have tasted money from kidnapping, bunkering, political blackmail and to stop now is unlikely. The money given by YARADUA is small compared to the income derived from these activities.
  ALso understand we have "OYINBO" man in the WAHALA now. If you understand the OIL business then you know what i mean. When mend attacks, Oil prices go up and every movement in OIL prices is millions in someones pocket. Unless the nigerian govt. takes firm steps to crush this group once and for all, we might be on brink of nigeria splitting up. [quote]

Ode, who's evasive? I asked you to post a single pic and you're coming up with silly nonsense.

Your stupid post = you don't have a damn thing to show. Put up or STFU,

What does MEND AND NAIRALAND HAVE IN COMMON?

1) Both are faceless community.
2) Both Founded by Idenitity Compromised individual.Eg Henry Okah for Mend, Seun Osewa for Nairaland.
3) While Mend run her affairs through Commanders and Lietenants, Nairaland uses Moderators and Posters.
4) While Jomo Gbomo is the spokes person for Mend, Becomerich is the map man for nairaland.
5) While Mend fights for the welfare of ND, every member of nairaland fights for their regional and ethnic betterment
6) While mend wars against the federal govt, Nairaland fights any percieved corrupt Nigerian & sonetimes non Nigerians
7) While mend recently appointed the "Aaron team" to negotiate on their behalf, Nairaland will soon be appointing 'moderators' to fill vacent advertised positions
While some members of mend recently recieved amnesty, some members are Nairaland are equally due for same e.g============
9) While mend spare 'Men of God', Nairaland members spares nobody not even  'our most influently man of God.
10)While mend is seen as militant and rebel group, Nairaland is seen  and called the 'jobless youth attacking govt policies community' Who will give us more?

I think you have accurately described yourself

[b]There is nothing inherently wrong with one Nigeria.

But there is everything wrong with one Nigeria when large tracts of the Southern population are feeling increasing alienated and marginalised.
The ND problem revolves around our federal structure. Rather than discuss the ND problem with MEND, who have gotten together a team of World class representatives (including Akhigbe and Soyinka), the FG has gone down the wrong path of threats, bribery (amnesty) and false propaganda.
We are told to blame our "leaders", as if we even know how FG implants like Ibori ever became our "leaders" (someone please tell me when we "voted" fairly). Aside from MEND and its ethnic affiliates, the ND has no voice.

We all love the idealistic one Nigeria concept, but very man, woman and child from the ND is deeply upset and there is no outlet. The Nigerian mentality is to push the smaller guy about, but anybody who knows the ND knows that folk here simply don't get pushed about; unlike in some regions, you can't threaten someone "I will slap you" if you aren't immediately ready and capable of carrying it out; we just don't think in that way and that is where the rest of the country gets this crisis so wrong. We are really tired and pushed to the wall. All the while, our people are killed like mere cockroaches by those who claim to be "fellow Nigerians", all for oil that does not serve either Nigeria or the ND; it is all stolen by ex-generals and the ruling class.

The way things are going, at some point the ND will form an army; it is beginning to look more definite with each passing day. All that needs doing, is stop Warri and PH functioning and the country will cease to function; then you can say bye bye to Nigeria.

The clock is ticking.
