A militant group, Network of Niger Delta Republic Fighters, has threatened to declare a Niger Delta Republic on June 1, 2019.

The statement by the Director of Information of the group Maxwell Dan alleged selective maltreatment of the people of the region by the Muhammadu Buhari administration.

The statement read, “It is quite unfortunate that the story has not changed till today, and we are standing on that declaration; we are standing on the declaration of the sovereign state of Niger Delta and we will declare Niger Delta Republic on June 1, 2019. It added, “As that could not pay off, they remove a Niger Delta son, Mr Mathew Seiyeifa, the most qualified Director of DSS without any due process. Not satisfied with his cruel and selective onslaught against the Niger Delta people, they plotted again and remove our son Justice Walter Onnoghen from office on frivolous allegations without following due process, neither was he given an opportunity of fair hearing.

Why wait till June 1? Why not NOW as in NOW? The Newspapers that give oxygen to these views are really the problem!!!!

June 1st or not, Niger Delta Republic will stand!

Money don finish 😏

HandiWork of lazy politicians

They will call trouble

God Almighty will not make it possible for God is Nigeria Refuge and Fortress

After 2019 election abi, you people shouldn't have vote in this last election till next election 2023,kele magbe yin

Hungry people

Let them try nah and see how it goes...

Great job

Sorry for the delay in the payment, it will not happen again. You can check your account number now

Misled mercenaries.

That will nice oooo

Tactical nonsense.... o For what and for who.... idiots.

We re ready biko, this country called Nigeria is a scam😂😂😂 Biafra make una move oooo😂😂

😂😂😂😂

That is what is expected in a country where those in the government run the affairs of the government as their inherited business empire

This is not far from political under tone, but youths should better know their destinies!

Just tell us you will be watching the Champions League finals on June 1, 2019.

They should go and rest,small money and they sell out

phemykhris Only those dat have not witnessed d menace of militant can say anything dey like.. Diz guys are d most feared group in Nigeria.. Fulani herdsmen and boko haram dey learn work for where dem dey, abi nah Nigeria army 😂 😂 dat one nah saraka...

Thank God

You all know that niger delta boys if they start their craze it doesn't end. Whether they declare or not, their militant activities is what gave rise to kidnappings today. Remember they're still disturbing oil production in their region. Kayama Republic loading......

FG should just deploy 20k army navy and airforce

These hungry n greedy fools must shut up. Am a Deltan but these guys r only fighting for their belly.

The bargain started in earnest as MBuhari enters his Next Level. This is not the best way for Niger Delta. Delta problems are structural and political. They need to be addressed holistically.

Good one! Am so happy.

AbadaEfeJulius - pls do open a portal for the recruitment of Niger Delta army and Navy force

Rubbish only mouth them get!

How many times have they threatened, abagi..!

Fine, lets see who will surfer the problem more...the declaration that was not done during Jonathan. Although, i will like to the Oil no more, may be there will be new Nigeria.

Please make haste and don't tarry any longer. And come and see how your niger delta will become a war zone. Awon Olosi Eda

The only clowns that would be delighted by this empty opata are 'awa' usual IPOB rodents. Always aligning with losers since time immemorial. June 1 is round the corner, and their 'declaration' will only be recognised on PDP server.

Hahaha! Jokers of the century!

Can someone please lecture some illiterate people in some part of Nigeria

The best decision. Am 100% in support

Is that different from Biafra We joke too much in Nigeria

Is useless

They should count me out. Like whom exactly did they consult this are the same reasons why youths now believe in militants. Are the militant supposed to speak on behalf of the masses, in a sane country such story isn't worth any Newsline headline

I think that would be nice

Don't get your hopes up...this particular politically sponsored militant group have been fond of making noise every once in a while like this😊

Pdp militants 😂😂😂

Go right ahead, Nigeria is a failed nation to say the least

Yeye dey smell for this comment section. Remember this my comment 'no matter how long it takes war will surely bust out in this country and this pretending 1 Nigeria shit will come to an end. Hypocrites

They are seeking for attention

They surely meet their waterloo

Let it rain ☂ ☂ ☂ rain rain rain

Noise makers

LindaOsaVincent Stop the threats. Go ahead and do it. I don't like noise

We dont need another instability in the delta region . But it just seems to be that this current Govt. has no plans to improve the conditions of lives in the oil rich Niger-delta.

Buhari will say Atiku also gave them money for that

They should start by helping us to go and be kidnapping miyyeti Allah leaders... Let's start from there....1-1 goalless draw

Let them! Punks!!

They can't try it. I remembered when NDA gingered up and down and ended up doing nothing till date.

It's sad that the Niger Delta struggle has been hijacked by armed freeloaders who make noise only to be settled by oil companies & politicians. Those who empowered them with guns & inflammatory rhetoric should 'settle the boys'

Ok no problem

Very good! If Hausa/Fulani can boldly declare their state as Sharia state no leyley you people should go ahead please, I hate rubbish

They should be given N100bn too. They have the oil fields, miyatti Allah only have cattles and are demanding for 100bn. Give the Niger delta 300bn please.

Their money done dey finish?

They should prepare their own 100billion naira, since we know how to accommodate rubbish in this country

Please Please and Please don't do it. The Nigerian Army that looks somehow weak with Book Haram will suddenly be extremely strong with Niger Delta. You can bet. And we all know why it's going to be like that.

It's well,let wait and see what will really happen on first of June the elders of this nation as fail us

I beggie..

Ha ha ha ha

Oh lord please make it to be a reality, and also grant the people of Biafra their own nation, Insha Allah.. in Jesus name, Amen 🙏

Brilliant, WELL DONE. AMERICA and EUROPE have closed their Borders to IMMIGRANTS. SO, where you're going to RUN TO, we'll all wait and see. Stop BULLYING.

Only noise

You guys have not done threaten.

Tell them to declare it today

Lol they’ve always been threatening to declare a Niger Delta Republic ascertain day but it never comes.

And if they start dealing with them now some idiots will come n start shouting Islamization or start shouting Buhari like fools that they re.

7 plus 125k , 8 plus 175k , 8 148k only for today, pay and carry. Battery 🔋 💯 %percent. Kindly RT if this pops on your tl. Somebody needs this 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Haa shit, here we go again

Na today e don tee, something wey you no fit do when human was in the throne na now wey animal ascended na him you want show your sef. Goodluck.

😀😀😀😀😂 Atiku is coming

Yeah it was expected the moment Miyatti Made that statement i knew it was going to snowball others will soon start asking for their own allawee with one threat or the other . my only concern is seems now that Violence and crime is paying more than hard work which way nigeria?

Shameless and lazy youths,can they define onoghen treatment? A man that cannot defend money in his accounts as attorney general and minister of justice. Idiots,go ahead and declare your republic.

I think I am loving the country more now🤔

Pls let them declare

Fumbles. Yeeye don fly.

Na Dem

Its abt time...d suffering in naija frm 2015 to date is enuf to start a war let d truth b told..d present ruler has nothing to do wit rulership or leadership..PMB is a complete failure!

You all hypocrites in the north dont talk about the killing of your own brothers.. your Muslim leaders cant protest abt it bcos Buhari is the president.. y'all lost

Stop threatening the peace of Nigeria, fire your states leaders and your representatives at all levels for any intimidation.

Misguided militants..Another Sponsored schematics.

If militant declares this, even if the govt let they go, just know that niger delta went from frying pan to fire. You guys will never be united.

Let them declare... We really know there plan since.....

War isn't a way to go...Leaders in those region should speak up. This is the time to move Nigeria forward and don't drag us back to a recession. MBuhari ProfOsinbajo HQNigerianArmy PoliceNG DefenceInfoNG should move ahead urgently.

Action film 🎞 loading lol they also want thier fair share of the spoils since the government is so nice this days and been dashing out billions to terrorists so why won’t they request for thier share as well 🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️🤷🏼‍♂️

😂😂😂

We all know what you want... Una pocket don dey dry. They will soon reimburse you soon.. Sorry for the delay

The comments here is the reason why Nigeria can hardly get a revolution, any group that stands up against the government people start talking shit. Tomorrow they'll still complain about greedy politicians. Nigerians are crazy.

At least they are doing something,they are not happy with the nonsense going on in the country they have decided to demonstrate or declare successful or not! Unlike the so-called Nigerians that would talk from morning till night no action. People are suffering!

If they start, I hope they don't stop and they planned well. No region holds the monopoly of holding the government by its phantom b***s.

They are broke...they need more money

Hungry don touch these ones😂

They should kwayet their mouth

Nigeria has expired, let every region go their way. Buhari only came to steal and destroyed

Haha Dubai strategy

Rada Rada

So sorry... Money dey come Awon alariwo

They have threatened more than that before now. Southerners are just noisemakers. As long as the greedy political leadership in the south continues to pander to the whims and caprices of the northern oligarchy, the youth are just making noise...and this noise is becoming annoying

The same old song and am sure it will still be same old response ...until the day this fools learn to understand the only solution is true fiscal federalism the cycle will not stop

All this one are noise makers lols 😂😆

They want to be recognized that's all.

We will support, as long as it get the Fulani out of our lands and lives.

Everyone can declare anything jare. enough of all these rubbish. I'm now ashamed of the Nig Navy and all those Army commanders that have been posted to the Niger Delta, they have turned all theses to a money making venture... How do these miscreants get guns to threaten us?

Who is delaying these guys payment? Is not due to give them their pill, abeg not that they will do anything, but we have a lot of noise to deal with for now. Bandits, herdsmen, Boko Haram will guys allow this folks to overtake you guys? Guys increase una noise....

Good time, afterall, when a state is considered to big, they slent, Nigeria situation is enough for that....

Another way of saying Come and settle us The military is coming ...with sorrow, tears and blood

Let every Nigerian ethnic group go please....let’s just concentrate on border control instead of resource control

The Nigerian Govt should go after them .. open threat to the country. ...let youth be... FreeNairaMarley

obinixon231 When you give one tribe running their personal business one hundred million naira as settlement for what I don't know, every other tribe sees it as a booming business and starts to agitate for theirs too. What is good for the goose is also good for the gander

Pls, you guys should change the date because June 1 is the UEFA Champions League Final. We want to celebrate as Liverpool crown champion

Una too talk no action... shartapp ur dirty mouths

Story story

These clowns again

Noisemakers!

Better for them. All the SS should declare Niger Delta republic, SE Bịafra republic. Others can have Nigeria. Everybody rest. It's a win win.

Oh dear, an ideal mind is d devils workshop indeed! God help Nigerian youths

God save Nigeria. Things should not fall apart.

MMMM this is national threat!

Nothing wey Naija no go see for gate....🏃‍♂️

Unserious people

Congrats!

Nigeria can never be one, u gave some cattle herdsmen about a 100bn naira and u think other militants won't spring up?! Settle d Niger delta militants and another will spring from d middle belt... U c this country, they should just split it, so that everyone can go cry dia cry

Please I can’t wait 😊

Good one from the men. We don't mind the dance, we look forward to it.

Comedians, abi the money don stop..... Selfish people.

These ones too are looking for their own share ,God what is your plan for Nigeria

They should go right ahead. Extremely cheery development, that is if they are SERIOUS.

Politically... We need it

Ummmm! Problems everywhere.

I smell doom for Nigeria very soon, a country were terrorist is given ransom and a group dat kills and kidnap people are now given a right and valued as a social cultural group like oha na eze. Watch dis signs coming my country men. I have spoken

Ogogoro masters....

It means all their representative s at the both upper and lower houses at Abuja must to leave....

It's overdue before herdsmen and myetti Allah declare their own republic

They should go ahead and do that but they should be reminded that it's an of treason which the sovereign government of Nigeria may respond with the appropriate action.

We all yearn for one Nigeria, let's make Nigeria great guys

Best way to go They take our crude They give us nothing They send Fulani herdsmen to rape our girls; women & kill others Enough is enough

Are you not tired of dancing with Python?

Oh! Sorry boys... Bubu doesn't do settlement things now, please wait till Ramadan finishes.

Okay
