"A nation that buys its peace is a nation indebted to war"

There is nothing I won't hear! So Dokubo-Asari,leader of the Niger Delta People’s Volunteer Force earns $9million (N1.420billion) annually ,guarding pipelines of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC),while Tompolo is paid $22.9million (N3.614billion) for a similar contract.
The NNPC ,according to the report,gives $3.8million each annually to Boyloaf and Ateke.

All the Government O! But what happened to the global chant "we don't negotiate with terrorists"?

Has the suffering of the people of the Niger Delta ended? But the acts of terrorism has stopped. SO WHAT HAPPENED? CONTRACTS HAPPENED! Goes to show that the agitation in the Niger Delta is not about the plights of those suffering there, but about who can extort the state effectively through blackmail.

In trying to please the very same people that have held the nation to ransom, they have now set a precedence of dealing and bargaining with terrorists.

Just like giving Al-Qaeda a contract to guard Americas largest single source of revenue. Bonkers !

As Mallam Sani said “A nation that buys its peace is a nation indebted to war".

This administration needs to watch as they play with fire there will always be consequences directly or indirectly.

My prayer remains with the good people of the Niger Delta ...
