The military action is long over due... How do you justify all these atrocities committed by these criminal gangs in the name of justices...? Is killings, torturing, kidnapping and subjecting people to traumatic ordeal part of the struggle. It is common knowledge that the Nigerian government have failed not only the Niger-delta but all Nigerian or which part of the country is better off with all the wealth Nigeria state claim to have. The crisis in the Niger-delta is a collective failure of the Nigerian state and the Niger-delta leaders.
Acknowledging these criminals by calling themselves freedom fighters is doing disservice to the real struggle of the Niger-delta people; afterall there are unconfirmed allegations going about in the newspapers that the King of Gbaramatu and the local government chairman of that local area are brothers to the wanted Mend militant leader, same goes for some of this so-called Niger-delta Militant leaders who have their families dining and wining with the state.

My question, what have they done in their capacity for their people...... History has shown us too be wary of rebel fighters who tend to be worse than the government they want to change.
