The Niger Delta Avengers, also yesterday, said it does not care if the Federal Government hires mercenaries from Saudi Arabia or anywhere to fight them. Reacting to online reports that the federal government had concluded agreement with Saudi authorities to deploy Saudi Blackwater mercenaries to the Niger Delta region to tackle militants that had been bombing oil facilities, spokesperson of the group, self-styled Brig Gen Mudoch Agbinibo, told Saturday Vanguard that NDA was not perturbed. A staff in The Royal Embassy of The Kingdom of Saudi Arabia in Nigeria supposedly confirmed the $280 million deal, as part of the agreement in the Saudi-led Islamic coalition against terrorism to Vaxity. Anwar Eshki, a retired Major General, in the Saudi armed forces is reportedly the head of Blackwater, which undertakes such assignments for the Saudi Arabian government.


Giving reason why the Federal Government was not holding talks with the Niger Delta Avengers  on how to put an end to the bombing of pipelines, Vice President, Professor Yemi Osinbajo said that they are not freedom fighters but economic warriors who are fighting for their own private pockets. Professor Osinbajo who delivered the second foundation lecture of Elizade University,Ilaramokin, Ondo state entitled “The Future is here earlier than we thought”, declared that “the so called avengers are not freedom fighters but fighting for their own economic benefits. They are avenging for their private pocket and that is why government is not talking with them”.THE Federal Government  explained yesterday why it has refused to enter into dialogue with the Niger Delta Avengers who has continuously bombed pipelines in the region even as the militants  vowed not to beg government for negotiation. The Federal Government gave the explanation  a day after the Avengers blew up three more trunk lines in Bayelsa and Rivers. Meanwhile, residents of over 75 riverine communities Delta state have cried out over the pollution of their environment and environment by the activities of the Avengers and other militant groups.

I laugh

So the Nigerian Army can't tackle them again?, After all the threat of "crush crush crush", mumu-ibn-hari had to summon his fellow jihadists to come and help him. I laugh again.

These Saudi Mercenaries would have been much better to fight Bokoharam because of the desert terrain in which they operate. How does this dullardic Administration expect these guys to operate in the creeks?

Believe me when I say Buhari is a monstrous hypocrite, This same man criticised the last administration for seeking for foreign help to tackle Bokoharam, Now the dull man is doing the same. Let's see what zombified humanoids have to say about this.

Lmao him don go call his brothers, what are your soldiers for? Decoration? Commander in chief of armed forces, foreign or local arm force which one you be thier commander, imagine how much salary those millions can pay, BUT GOD WHY NAW? WHY THEM BORN ME FOR NIGERIA GOD WHY

The Daura One I KnW is not a "Santa Claus" like the Otondo Otuoke one.

I just the laugh this Administration

God please help Nigeria,I pray this is not true; it will be another Syria

Buhari completing his ISLAMIZATION plan.
All thanks to the Afonjas in the West.

OPC Afenifere and Odumakin warned them. Now we can see that Buhari wants to repeat another GAMBIA in Nigeria.

Only fools will believe the op.... oops I spoke to soon.

Wailing zombies will be jerking off in haste while in reality they have been scammed.

Ah ah... You forget to strike out our posts today?... Bros, Your president has failed in all ramifications. Very incompetent, Wasting tax payers money on Saudi Mercenaries.

I believe you are not a zombie anyway. Goverment from time immemorial hires mercenaries to prosecute wars

280m to kill the people that has been feeding him since because they refused to feed him again.Is all right, but 280m would've gone along way developing this region and everybody will have peace.

Hmmmm!

Two confirmed sources DSTV and Vanguard; why should I doubt?

Buhari will die if any mercenary lands in the ND. Civil war loading.....

Nonsense!

I heard this pill boost IQ like a miracle

This is not good, we are a sovereign and independent nation. Why do we now need to go the extra mile to get foreign mercenaries to deal with NDA, while we have our soldiers down here. Another thing is why spend such a huge amount of money, when u could employ few expatriates to train our soldiers in modern war combat.

Have the blackwater troops finished tackling the Jihad and the Isis rendering people's lives and property useless in the lands they were sent to? Does he even know the amount of war crimes the blackwater mercenaries have perpetrated? Does he think it's 'peace keeping' and 'doing the job' they are really after? And for that amount of money? He's really a dullard, I thought you took a stand against importation and encouraged #MadeinNigeria, wetin come happen? Lmao, God help us

Saudi military are one of the most lazy in the world, very afraid of Iran. They couldn't venture into Syria, instead sent mercenaries.

Mtchew,any step the Oga at the top make Na Islamization.Abeg belief this stuff at your peril.Na embassy staff dey confirm news for you.Common sense not common indeed.The Zombie vs Wailer crew that has infected this forum is sickening.All of you just thinking with your D¡¡k

dstv, which channel gan gan

These Mercenaries are agent of islamization. Buhari is bent on Islamizing this country. The $258m dollars is enough to dialogue with militants and also take care of issues affecting Niger Delta region.

I used to support this Mr president before, I was even campaigned for him in my own local way but that was the greatest mistake I have made in my life. Why hiring foreign mercenary to fight NDA while we were enjoying peace of life during late yaradua and former president Jonathan. Foreign soldiers/navy can never understand south south water ways. So it's a futile effort. Instead of dialogue with these boys as late yaradua did. Buhari is just a tribalistic president with northern agenda. Imagine all the big appointments in Nigeria today goes to the northerner for them to chop oil money. Whereas the real owners of the oil he stopped their little amnesty allowance. The oil pollution has destroy their land and water so they can not farm nor fish. No portable water for them to drink. No access road to their towns/villages. Mosquito is giving them malaria. So those people are suffering and the oil Nigeria is living on today is their inheritance. Buhari's wife has been touring all the northern part of the country donating money and food items on southern oil money. And the husband will be claiming there's no office of first lady. Fulani herdsmen are raping /killing southerners PMB is not taking any meaningful action against them. He's a president wt 100% northern agenda.

Because we no get army or because our army no competent?

When you can just hire leceister's kante
Nigga can tackle global warming

Iran nah father for military, they produce most of their military equipment...go see how many US drones dey don capture.

Useless story!

hucienda:
A shame.

So our security apparatus cannot defeat them?

And the country allegedly has US$258m to hire foreigners?

Lemme assume this news is false 'cos if indeed it is true, then that's just the height of it.

you started the last line well and later truncated your own line of thought. This is a fake news.


We have mercenaries all over Africa who could come into our environment and might not be easily spotted as outsiders , then why do we have to go to saudi- Arab-looking men who are going to be identified easily by the locals?

Lies from those headless militants!

Foolishness is when you send desert warriors to go fight in a swamp.
It is not the Avengers that will destroy them. It is the mosquitoes alone that would send them sick back to the desert.
To think that the $258m came from the very backyard of the Avengers.
