The story of Shoot-at-Sight, one of the leading Niger Delta freedom fighters, whose real name is High Chief Bibopere Ajube, is one that could make the best sellers list, when published as a book. He was one of the prominent leaders of the Niger Delta who willingly dropped his arms and abandoned violent agitation to embrace amnesty following its proclamation by the late former President Umaru Musa Yar’Adua, in his quest to restore peace in the once volatile Niger Delta region.

His acceptance of amnesty marked the beginning of his journey to self discovery in business. It made him to wear his thinking cap as he saw himself metamorphose into a major player in the economy of the Niger Delta. This is to the extent that he now commands the economy, wages war against poverty, fights unemployment and creates opportunities for jobless youths in the Niger Delta region.

His company, Bradama, which means “handwork”has become one of the leading oil and gas companies in Nigeria. Using Ajube as an example, Dikio has been touring the Niger Delta preaching the gospel of entrepreneurship to all ex-agitators. He has been preparing the ex-agitators to capitalise on the opportunities and comparative ecomomic advantage in the region to create wealth and escape the shackles of N65,000 monthly stipend mentality.
