South-West Sends Mercenaries To Other Parts Of Nigeria To Fight – Akpabio by Giyerte(m): 11:22am On Jun 10, 2016
Former Governor of Akwa Ibom State now Senate Minority Leader , Godswill Akpabio, has alleged that the South West is the “ only peaceful” area in the country because it sends mercenaries to other regions of the country to fight .

The minority leader made the claim in his contribution to the debate at the celebration of one year of the 8 th Senate yesterday.
Speaking on the general state of affairs in the country , Akpabio warned that if something urgent was not done, Nigeria would be plunged into major crisis .


He said : “ In the South - South , people have abandoned their homes because of activities of Niger Delta Avengers. The North is in turmoil; the South - East is boiling because of agitation . The South -West is the only peaceful area , but they still send mercenaries to other areas to fight ” .

Senator Akpabio, however, failed to mention which areas the South - West mercenaries are sent and the nature of “fight ” they partake in .

Curiously, none of the senators from the South - West challenged the former Akwa Ibom governor on this claim, our correspondent reports .


Meanwhile, the senator has challenged the All Progressives Congress - led federal government to market the country in a positive light , saying no serious investor will put his money in a country that has already been described as “full of criminals” by its leaders .


“I want to urge the APC to market this country very well. The way the APC is saying the country is full of criminals , investors will not come here to invest. They must change the way they talk about Nigeria. Things need to change ” , he stated .

There may be some truth in his assertion.
I remember the 2 Yoruba boys that decapitated an unarmed soldier in London.

Na lie...
SW is peaceful because they no sabi fight...infact they have never fought before...to cut it short; they no fit fight.

"we will seccede if fulani herdsmen try us"...
Olu Falae was kidnapped and nothing happened

"we will deal with hausa-fulani if they enter Lagos"...
Some hausa traders caused commotion at Mile 12 market and they started calling Ambode.

"we will deal with Igbos/Ipods touts if they disturb our peace in Lagos"...
Some Igbo traders clashed with some yoloba touts at Ladipo market and nuffing happened

Wizkid: "I go beat Linda Ikeji" Linda carry my guy go police station; my guy show sharparly begin beg Linda.

Even when Abiola's election victory was annulled back in the days in1994...they were just mopping

SW are used to chest beating since 19B4AWOLOWO...they can only fight here on NL watch as they will attack an inanimate stuff like my post afterwards and will run away when they see me face to face...

Is that how d*ft all of you are? How can someone be sending mercenaries to your land to destabilise it for you with your connivance, while his own land is peaceful.

Akpabio, I used to think you had a millennial brain. Unfortunately, this statement can only come from Pentium 1 brain.

Ipod is in an alliance with the Niger Delta Scavengers and other ND terrorists gangs.

Herdsmen from Libya and Mauritius and West Africa are in an alliance with the Fulanis.

BH's training base is in Sudan and they are in an alliance with ISIS.

Igbo kidnappers were the ones that went all the way to Kaduna to kidnap and kill a Hausa Colonel.

Where does SW and Yorubas come into all your madness? Our land will remain peaceful and the Number 1 investor destination in West Africa.

Haters can take a stroll by the Lagoon.

Akpabio, you can also send mercenaries to other parts of Nigeria from your region if what you are saying makes sense.

Its obvious leaders from the ss region lack the political will and diplomacy to deal with issues. They prefer to be cry babies and play the victim all the time, what a pity

Small small pple re exposing dre treacherous scheme

how dey manage to make sure that PORTHARCOURT PORT IS not a full commodity port still remain a misery to me.
And so called NigerDeltas were just dre agitating for useless OIL not knowing that d capital,inflow and investment Multiple Ports would have attracted in d Niger Delta is ten times bigger than any Oil wells.


By d time CALABAR PORT AND other Ports in delta is fully established

Igbos should just abandon dis dre Lagos and it will be deserted as during festive Seasons (Christmas)

Since dey don't know dat it's our money and hardwork dat breaths life into Lagos.

So?? And your point?? You seem even more stvpid than I imagined. Perhaps they ignored the foo.l of a senator seeing how good a job he was doing exhibiting his foolishness in plain view. Shey na Yorubas 'mercenaries' dey fight Ipob in igboland Abi na Dem dey blow up Una pipelines?? Abi was it not Igboman who was recently outed for being a Boko Haram member? Must you punks scapegoat Yorubas over your own stupidity?? I weep for your foolishness. *spits*
The Genesis and revelation of all their problem start and ends with Yoruba. They say we are cowards; okay, we accepted that tag so far being a coward means having a peaceful and investors friendly Yoruba region. Today they realise the stupidity of the militancy and criminality in their region, they now blame Yoruba's for their own gullibilty again

Where is the evidence, please?

Even if true, how can you allow an outsider to come into your home and assist to set your own house on fire, when he has his own mansion intact? Is that not a combo of insanity and stupidity?

Stupidity of militancy when the nation is almost bankrupt through militancy?

As the Yoruba would say “ a kin fi ina si ori orule sun” which translates “when there is fire (trouble) in the home we can't ignore it ”

Beyond the likes of quasi-militants like Annkio Briggs, a few wealthy hoodlums and apologists, almost none of the important Ijaw, N.Delta leadership have said a word about the destruction of property, environment and the visitation of violence by the NDA in recent week. Jonathan after 1 year still has yet to find his voice, edwin Clark seems to be MIA, Ayo Oritsejafor seems to have forgotten his CAN mandate is yet to be over

The Yoruba have always truthfully and logically dealt with issue apportioning blame accordingly without fear or favour. The principles of omoluabi dictates that a child who wants to disturb the peace of the land would himself know no peace and to complete this beyond personal success the greatness of the land and community is the pride of any true Yoruba son

igbo is the only tribe in Nigeria in history that never won a war.

There is nothing wrong with fighting for islam and nothing wrong in people taking note. We are drawing up conclusions about Yoruba people and nothing is wrong with that. We are making up our minds.
