Activist Tells FG To Restrain The Army Over Invasion Of N/delta Communities by ogugwa1992: 6:50pm On Mar 18
Nigerian rights activist and author, Raphael Adebayo, has called on the Federal Government to rein in the military in light of the ongoing operation of the Nigerian Army in the Niger Delta region. The activist urged the government to prioritize honest investigation and peaceful dialogue over human rights violations and the unprovoked massacre of innocent civilians.

In a statement released to the media on Monday, 18 March 2024, Adebayo criticized what he described as 'the incendiary invasion' and 'senseless massacre' of law-abiding citizens and their properties in Okuama and neighbouring communities in Delta and Bayelsa States.

The activist stated that 'from what we know so far, the residents of Okuama, Okoloba, and other affected communities have been consistent in their accounts of being the victims of an unprovoked carnage by the Nigerian Army, which has led to the death of dozens of law-abiding Nigerians in the region. President Tinubu must revoke the free rein given to the military in his previous statement on this matter and, alongside the State Governors in the South-South, order an extensive investigation into what happened in those communities.'

The author further noted that 'Nigeria is already tottering on the brink of collapse due to the combined problems of widespread insecurity, food crisis, human rights abuses, injustice, religious extremism, and the greed of the ruling elites.' He added that 'if the situation in the Niger Delta is not quickly resolved through peaceful dialogue, Nigeria may have just opened a terrible Pandora's box of intractable socio-economic troubles.'

Adebayo's statement comes on the heels of a series of censures by activists across Nigeria who believe the Nigerian Army acted prematurely and in violation of local and international human rights standards. The activist concluded that 'those who participated in the escalation of this carnage by the Nigerian Army must be swiftly brought to book. The Nigerian Army must always remember that the privilege of service must never become a license to kill without due investigation and justification.'

Killing Soldiers is Wrong.
Killing innocent citizens & burning houses in the name of retaliation is equally Wrong.

Two Wrongs never make a Right.

Enough said.

Pls also tell the F.G to make DNA test compulsory and free because these non-virgins aka boreholes are giving us other men's children. Though I don't completely blame the borehole aka non-virgin women but I blame the men who trusted them so much. What do I even know sef aside enlightening my fellow men nationwide with the good news.

Apart from this activist, Why is that it only my Yoruba people are the one happy that the Nigerian army is burning down the communities in Niger Delta region. This is hypocrisy. I condemn the act of the militant who papetrated this act. But its unfair that we are supporting the destruction of lives and property of innocent civilians
By the militarily. Lets not be one destroying the southern unity. These things don't happen in the north no matter what happens

A whole chief of army staff was killed in the North, and nothing happened.
Herdsmen killed many soldiers and police officers in Delta State a few days ago, but nothing happened.

Now them are busy burning down people house , killing and raping women's, and everywhere seems normal because its in the south .
The most funny part is that easterners are part of those on the operation under the command of fulani or yoruba officer.

This situation should be de-escalated as quickly as possible.

Nigeria is already on the edge of a steep precipice. Too many frayed nerves. Too many issues.

Cheers to peace!

Even Tinubu cannot stop the NAF

Have you heard of the term “UNKNOWN SOLDIERS” ? That’s what will play out at last

Unknown soldiers commits genocide. It’s the Nigerian military way. Always unknown when havoc is about to be wrecked.

A coward military will kill innocent people and unarmed civilian.


Meanwhile, 300 girls can be kidnaped in the North and the Government reward them with 1billion dollars.


Soldiers are killed in the North and they reward them with Amnesty and joining the same Army.


Clearly in this Nigeria, all Nigerians are not equal or some more equal than others.



When will Nigeria ARmy try this in the North?
