Ruga: Militants Tackle Northern Group Over Ultimatum To FG

By


A militant group, the Joint Revolutionary Council (JRC) has flayed declaration by a ‘Coalition of Northern Groups’ over a 30-day ultimatum issued to the Federal Government to reverse its decision on the suspension of the Ruga Cow Settlement programme.
The JRC stated this in an online statement signed by its spokesman, Cynthia Whyte and obtained by The Tide in Port Harcourt, Rivers State capital, weekend
Recall that the apex government had last week announced the suspension of the planned Ruga settlement police following the public outcry and rejection that greeted it by many Nigerians.
Whyte also alleged that those behind the 30 day deadline are President Muahhamu Buhari’s kinsmen, saying: “We have felt the hands of Esau. We also know the voice of Jacob.
The JRC said that for more than 60 years, the people of the Niger Delta have sacrificed their lives, their land and its vast resources for the survival and continued existence for a nation that it described as ungrateful.
While warning that any attempt to infringe on what it termed the ‘peaceful and secure life of the Niger Delta people anywhere in Nigeria would be resisted; it said the region has borne enough headache for the Nigerian State and cannot afford the ‘luxury of a Ruga Migraine’.
The statement reads: “The attention of the Joint Revolutionary Council has been drawn to a declaration by a leechist group, the Coalition of Northern Groups in which a 30 day ultimatum was given to the Government of the Nigerian State led by their kinsman, General Muhammadu Buhari (Rtd.) to rescind its decision on the suspension of the satanic RUGA settlement policy.
“We have felt the hands of Esau. We also know the voice of Jacob. In furtherance thereof, we declare that any attempt to infringe upon the peaceful and secure life of any Niger Deltan anywhere across the Nigerian state will be met with just recompense.
“Leaders of the true struggle for the emancipation and liberation of the Niger Delta have continually been murdered, assassinated, hung, imprisoned and forced on exile by leaders of Northern extraction with the active connivance of saboteur elements, failed politicians and fraudulent and self-seeking so-called leaders of the struggle from the Niger Delta.

According to InfoMigrants, Nigerian women are at growing risk from traffickers in Germany who exploit and engage them in prostitution. Read the full report below by InfoMigrants. The new prostitute protection law in Germany was meant to identify victims of human trafficking – most of them migrant women. More than 18 months after the law came into effect, thousands continue to be targeted for exploitation, and the risk for Nigerian women seems to be increasing. There are campervans parked by the roadside. Some have hearts painted on them, one says “girls, girls” in red letters. It’s an easy matter for someone to stop for a quick transaction in one of these Love-Mobiles – sex with one of the “girls” in exchange for the going rate. Prostitution is mainly legal in Germany, as are these mobile brothels. But many of the women in the business – including those working from the Love-Mobiles – are victims of illegal human trafficking. Most of the women are from Eastern Europe or Nige

FULL TEXT: A sacrifice for our new political order – Ezekwesili

“When the ACPN leadership approached me in a series of visits to appeal that I run for office on their platform, the party appeared to be a good fit. It was founded by some disgruntled PDP members some years ago, but when its prime founder decided to return to the PDP, a core of its membership refused to move back with him. I was told that they stayed back because of their opposition to the ways of the PDP. Considering my vocal disapproval of the PDP and the APC, I admired the ACPN’s decision to stand firm and refusal to be co-opted.” It has been an interesting one week since I made the tough but necessary decision to suspend my campaign for the presidency. I have been truly overwhelmed by the reactions to my announcement from Nigerians. Even in airports outside the country as I travelled last week, Nigerians walked up to me with questions, concerns, encouragement, and motivation. I also saw disappointment by some who had poured their hearts and hopes into actualising our mission
