Press Statement
We EGBESU MIGHTIER FRATERNITY read with utmost concern on the thread press statement issued by the movement for the Emancipation f the Niger Delta (MEND) through its spokesman, Jomo Gbomo , dated September 28, 2011 “On October 1, 2011 to bomb Eagle Square again”.
Remember, we are all general in the field for the struggle to liberate the oppressed Niger Delta Region. But the focus has been diverted without clear agenda for our struggle. We were oppressed without consideration for the wealth in our region by the previous administrations in this country, but God in His infinite Mercy turned the glory to Niger Deltans without being struggle to be where we are today, you have used with bomb thread on Mr. President who is innocent about our previous marginalization. Leave President Goodluck Jonathan alone to stir the ship of leadership in the country. We know ourselves. Note, if any bomb blast as a result of this October 1st Independence day celebration occurred and you (MEND) claim responsibility, we shall not hesite to meet you one on one. We know your true identities in the struggle. We know our homes. None of us come from different countries.
Remember, to thank our miracle God for what he has done for us as being oppressed to rule this country. Go and confront Bako Haram Sect in the North because Niger Delta man is the President today. Have you (MEND) asked if it were a northerner to have emerged as president, will they have bombed Abuja with suicide mission? Think twice of your decision to bomb Abuja again. We are also warning Boko Haram to stop further bombing to distract Mr. President because after the expiration of our 14 days ultimatum, we’ll commence our launching, code name “Operation meet Boko Haram in their land.”
This is our message.
