MEND Promises Hell At Abuja Independence Celebration, Offers “First and Final Warning” to Public

By SaharaReporters, New York

The Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) has warned Nigerians to stay away from Abuja’s Eagle Square, the venue of the nation’s 2011 independence anniversary celebrations, on October 1.

In a terse public statement, the Movement said darkly it intended to “place bombs within and in the immediate vicinity of Eagle Square.”

In what seems to be an effort to pre-empt a lavish government party, it observed that after 51 years of independence, Nigerians have nothing to celebrate.

“The general public is strongly advised to consider this as a first and final warning,” the statement said.

SR is a Local and Babaric Media

These group of barbaric Americans refugee called SR deliberately allow some kind of crude new and comments to create more awareness for their junks. I thinks ist high time for readers to look for the alternative

Re: Pray for Allah to strike !!!

It is unguarded comments from people like you that fuel crises in Nig. I guess you don't practice what ur pastors preach to u every Sunday. I believe you should know there are Arab christians. Why don't u ask them what they call the Almighty God? Nothing but Allah, the same Supreme being u just mocked and insulted. The Jesus u worship NEVER did that. Then I ask u what type of christianity do you practice? I have xtians friends and none of them ever said what u said about Him.
I advise u to seek 4giveness frm Him. He is the Most Patient and Merciful. If He wills, Allah will strike anyone anytime, any where and anyhow for He alone has domion over all that is on earth and in the heavens.

STOP INSULTING EACH OTHER

It is very unfortunate that editors of SR are continually allowing narrow minded individuals to use this medium to insult each other’s religion. This is uncalled for. Nigeria problem is in no way caused by religion and people should get this right. Our problem is caused by the narrow minded individuals hiding under religion to perpetrate evil. They may claim to be acting on behalf of God, but only a full will believe this. Please let us desist from insulting each other on this column; it is simply barbaric. This medium should be solely used for constructive discussions to criticise our corrupt leaders and in moving our country forward. People insulting each other religions are akin to our leaders we are criticising each day and the likes of Boko Haram.

Lord Lugards' mistake- Nigeria

From the reality on ground in 9ja,I actually don't see what we are celebrating. A clear cut case is a display of dis unity as is vividily seen on this page. Boko haram attacking Jonathan n Nigeria cos their man wasn't elected. The elected president is busy sitted as a figure head not able 2 perform. Is it because of the planned unrest from our Northern brothers in d name of boko haram that why he can't perform or is he naturally dull? I've still not been able 2 place this. If boko harams want 2 rule in d desert no wahala their desert states shld be given 2 them n lord lugards error corrected. Oops I miss baba Iyabo(OBJ) he was more effective in leadership.

Haba!!!

Are you worshipping Allah or you worshipping religion? So what if someone insults your religion? Leave that person to God (who has infinite power) to deal with the person. We get so worked up with religion and even sin against God by taking another person's life. Please, let us stop for once, and think VERY well!

God punishment the bastard that insulted Al quran and Mohammed

May God almighty destroy you and entire family for calling al- quran toilet paper and to insult mohammed rasullahi. May calamities of the creature be upon you and your family from today. Amen

Mend and 1st October

Having read most comments, It is condemn worthy that Sahara allows such unguarded and uncivilised utterances from readers. Comments were initially sensible and on issues before some disgruntled elements began attacking religion. Dan iska, you are really dan iska and shall remain such. Which religion teaches homo? Definately not Islam which encourages marriage. It is truly unfortunate that Nigerians have degenerated to such an unhealthy intolerable level cos of our religious and tribal differences. Why wasn't this the case in the time of Sardauna and Azikiwe even when the religions and tribes were still existing??? The only difference between then and now is the level of corruption and moral decadence/debasement. Does that make sense? Oh, How pitiful!

THINK

i simply think there is a group of poeple sitting down somewhere and laughing their heads out over all this. we r made to belive mend was consistent in following up on their threats & only last week or so i read of of a mend warning to b-haram, except if im missing something, mend & boko haram are not known to not boldly assure nigerians that 1st they r going attack & 2ndly claim responsibility 4 d attacks @ least d major attacks, think nigerians who is boko haram, who is mend & all d other groups

MEND is Boko Haram; Boko Haram is MEND!: MEND+Boko Haram = Death

Who is MEND, who is Boko Haram? Does MEND still exist? I doubt it! So, who is issuing these strange threats NOW? The same crimimal power elite intent on making Nigeria ungovernable because, Jonathan, an Ijaw man (from the 'wrong' place) became president? So, that is it? MEND stood for Niger Delta causes, so when did it broaden the range of its grivances ti fight pointless causes? No, don't be deceived. Remember that when last MEND struck in Abuja, Henry Okah (strongly suspected of being used by some pple up North) had said he was pressured to implicate some northern leaders -- was that statement meant to abort any attempt to thoroughly investigate some Northern leaders feared in several quarters as fomenting all these mayhem, whether as Boko Haram or MEND? The challenge is on GEJ to unmask the faces behind this threat and deal with them, no matter how highly placed.
It is time to think, Nigerians.

Enemies of the State: My Thoughts

I won't be surprised if one day we learn that Boko Haram, Akhwat Akwop (what a silly name for a group)and this new MEND are all being led by the same people... All of them, from Boko Haram to Akhwat Akwop (I really hate this name) even to the MEND that drops bombs on Independence Day... They're all masks, fronts for Nigeria's real enemies. If you ask a true Muslim he will tell you that Boko Haram is twisting their beliefs and has nothing to do with Islam, just as Akhwat Akwop has nothing to do with Christianity, and Independence Day bombs have nothing to do with the issues affecting the Niger Delta; we've got unseen enemies as a nation, but they will all suffer a bitter end if they do not leave us alone. God bless Nigeria.

Grrr

U stupid dirt bag christian who doesn't even respect his parent talkless ov his pastor,who do u think ur papa is,hw dare u insult mah religion like dat,nd may ur soul,ur papa's soul,ur mama's soul nd ol ur siblings soul rot in pieces. . Amen

Someone wrote:- If GEJ says

Someone wrote:- If GEJ says that he ”is not a David” how can he then possibly slay the ”Goliaths in the land?” If he says that he”is not a general” how can he be an effective Commander-in-Chief who commands the respect and confidence of his army and his officers? “If he says that he”is not a lion” how can he overwhelm the animals in our jungle that seek to destroy and ravage our land? The lion is a noble and courageous animal that defends it’s pride and family and protects it’s own. That is why it is known as the ”king of the jungle” and that is why our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ Himself is known as the ”Lion of the Tribe of Judah”. “Every king worth his salt must have the spirit of the lion and the warrior in him to a certain extent. It is a fundamental pre-qualification for good quality and inspirational leadership and that is what distinguishes the pretender and the usurper from a real king”

ignorance is a curse

pls my dear, but not brother, are u arguing from the bible or satanic perspectives? if itis from the fomer, then pls go back to the bible and read understandably, but if its from the latter then i am not surprised at all

nija is no one (is a fact)

we still remain as one nigeria bcos its the interest of the exploits but no more the interest of the nigerians in general. this can be infered from the hatrate, ethnocentric, religious diffirence we the so-called nigerians exibit in our day to day activities, be it in office, market even in public transport. people live, chat, dine and even transact in groups based on their sentiment. No wonder! we learnt it all from our president,GEJ, who runs his govt. for his people only. justification is that 4 every N100bn naira approved by the FEC 80% goes to south-south. oh my country nigeria! a son of mistake! hmm! Jonathan as president, Azazi NSA, Petrini COD, hahahah! May be the predicted time has come.

INNALILLAHI WA INNA ILAIHIR

INNALILLAHI WA INNA ILAIHIR RAJIUN, HASBUNALLAHU WA NA'IMAL WAKIL.
OH ALLAH! FORGIVE US WE SHOULD NOT BE PURNISHED BY OTHER PEOPLE'S DOINGS AND ACTIONS. ALLAH YOU ARE THE KNOWER OF THE UNKNOWN, U KNOW WHAT IS BENEATH THE EARTH, ON TOP IT AND ABOVE IT. ALLAH MAKE THE LIFE OF THIS INDIVIDUAL WORST AND HARDER THAN HE REQUIRED. AMEEN SUMMA AMEEN.

Blah blah blah. Just noise, as usual.

MEND is history. If Boko Haram gave this warning, I would take it very seriously because of their willingness to die in suicide attacks. MEND members are criminals who simple want a share of Niger Delta Oil. I am a Niger Deltan, and MEND DOES NOT REPRESENT ME IN ANY FORM OR FASHION. A bunch of illiterates and motor-park criminals cannot represent the educated and enlightened. MEND is just looking for attention, after all, their man, Jonathan, is funneling billions through the amnesty program for them to share. Again, MEND is history; they can blow up oil pipelines here and there in the creeks, but they simply do not have the capacity to carry out any serious bombing. MEND members are busy buying houses in South Africa, and they don't want to die. MEND is a disgrace!

Etiquette of Evil

@Toyin: Thanx for your wise commentair!
@Curious1: Calm down, the idea is to scare folks away from another lavish waste of our money.
@Tuco: "A Fist Full of Dollars"...maybe, their money don finish or they're looking for their cut of the cake. Either way, they're disgruntled with their mugu extraordinaire. My chorus is: MEND, "Bumaye" GEJ et al.

Generally, my take is that this is "responsible terrorism" because the "warning" has been sent. Whether they succeed or not, I hope people will stay clear of Eagle Sq. that day. Which group does us the favour of cleaning out these thugs in Abuja would be saving us a bloody revolution. But I'm rooting for MEND. Afterall, e better say na teacher mess for classroom, let MEND take out their crass creeker, he's failed miserably. Meanwhile, MOSSOP say 28 of their members are "missing". Bola Tinubu could provide the "spark" for OPC. Nigerians, we're getting there. Amagedon is inevitable!

@ Curious1

I sincerely advise u to wake-up & have a life, open ur eyes & know the purpose of ur creation & stop living like an beast....Jesus christ (may peace & blessings be upon him) as a true servant of God (Allaah) would disown whatever lies u ascribe to him on earth (u would then be on ur own) - ofcourse u would not agree with what I wrote, but u owe it a duty to yourself to atleast disengage yourself from whatever programming you got from the church & the western media if you really dont want to perpetually remain fool.IF YOU GENUINELY LOVE JESUS, THEN BE A MUSLIM & DISCOVER THE TRUE JESUS.........BY THE WAY, MUSLIMS ARE FORBIDDEN FROM INSULTING OTHER FATHS !

Just read!

Saying that Islam is evil is an understatement, otherwise, why does Iran want to kill a Christian cleric? The poor man accepted Christ and has refused to renounce and they have condemned him to death, you can read the full story on BBC, http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/world-middle-east-15116650. They are worried because of the increasing numbers of house churches in Iran, hence they want to use Yusuf Naderkhani as an example, just as they are worried because of the rising numbers of churches in Nigeria hence Boko Haram. Islam is nothing but a satanic cult, and the paedophile Muhammad (pieces upon his dick) is the cult head, it is a cult that propagates through fear, intimation and sword. Tufiakwa, Allah kiyaye!!! I would rather be a pagan than to be a Muslim.

Where eva u 're or u wil run

Where eva u 're or u wil run 2 hide u can n't escape this. Cos no body does dat n score free.

mumu marry mumu

@okonkwo kennedy: If madam president actually dislocated the english language as stated then mr president chose his wife well.....mumu marry mumu.
Now I assume they have children which leads to thw question: mumu + mumu = ?

@ Abdullah

Will u answer any body that says "YOUR FATHER"? d clown did not even stop at insulting u as an individual but the god u worship, and god fights 4 himself.
While that clown is busy hating and abusing u 4 no just reason, his brother is saying that he had bcom clueless on how to rule the country on dailies, even his sister at the Fed finance said that her broda gets drunk in the nite when he waves away 6.6 billion Naira maritime revenue and wake up in the morning and say, NIGERIA BUDGET IS BUILT ON DEFICIT. So u see my broda Abdullahi you shouldn't waist your valuable time trying to educate bunch of block heads that once its their broda, he can come home and engage in three sums with their mother and sister it don't mean anything.

enough saharareporters!!!

This madness has to stop if you are not in part of agenda to create religious crisis in Nigeria, you have to monitor comments before posting it.
I since notice some senseless comments from some idiots such as a castrated male donkey called "Deri" and another who is using sultan of sokoto name, and now another psychopathic carious 1 which he started with insulting ALLAH and prophet Muhammad (s.a.w).
this is surely unacceptable, as we are ready to sacrifice our lives for the sake of ALLAH and his massager.

the end

i dont see a future in nigeria... Our ethnoreligious diff. Are so marked that hardly can we achieve any reasonable deve. i still wonder why we still exist as one country despite enemity and lack of trust.

apples & oranges

IT'S ONLY A CONFUSED AND BRAINWASHED ALMAJIRI LIKE YOU THAT WILL CALL CHRISTIANITY "A DEVIANT SYSTEM OF BELIEVE"
GO GET SOME EDUCATION, THE RIGHT SYSTEM OF BELIEVE IS THE ONE THAT ENDORSES AND PRACTICES HOMOSEXUALITY AS A FORM OF WORSHIP ABI???
HELLFIRE IS REAL, REPENT AND TURN BACK TO YOUR MAKER: THE ALMIGHTY GOD; THE FATHER OF OUR SAVIOR KING JESUS CHRIST BEFORE YOU DAMN YOUR ETERNITY IRRETRIEVABLY!!

Terrorist,Militant and Amnesty.

Militancy is an ideological opposition to a government through force of arm or violence or bombing which may result to massive death...we appraise militancy and the presidency granted an unconstitutional amnesty. What is the difference between the modus operandi of MEND and BOKO HARAM in Nigeria. Frm GEDU.

@YES TRUTH SAYER WE ARE THINKING

LIKE YOU SAID WE ARE THINKING, BUT I AM WAITING FOR MEND TO DENY THIS BEFORE I PUT ON MY THINKING CAP AND BLAME BOKO HARAM. AT LEAST MEND ARE EDUCATED AND THEY FOLLOW SAHARA REPORTERS, UNLIKE THEIR ILLITRATE BOKO HARAM COUNTERPARTS.

@OKWONKWO KENNEDDY

I BELIEVE WHAT YOU WROTE ABOUT PATIENCE GOODLUCK IS YOUR OWN CONCOCTION. HOWEVER AS EVERYTHING IS POSSIBLE IN NIGERIA IF SHE TRUELY SAID ALL THAT YOU SAID THEN IT WILL BE A CRIME (AS YOU ALLEGE) IF SHE HAS A SECONDARY SCHOOL CERTIFICATE. IF SHE HAS A UNIVERSITY DEGREE THEN SHE SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED FOR EXAM MALPRACTICE. IF ON THE OTHER HAND SHE HAS NO FORMAL EDUCATION THEN WE MUST PRAISE HER FOR TRYING THIS HARD. SOMEHOW I DONT CARE ABOUT MY LEADERS LEVEL OF EDUCATION BECAUSE IT DOES NOT SEEM TO MATTER, IF YOU DONT BELIEVE ME CHECK OUT YAR'ADUA AND JONATHAN HIMSELF. SINCE SHE IS THE ADVISER-IN-CHIEF (AS JONA SPENDS AN INORDINATE AMOUNT OF TIME IN THE ASO ROCK'S BAR) YOU CAN IMAGINE WHAT WILL HAPPEN TO OUR EDUCATIONAL SYSTEM UNDER HER WATCH.

@ABDULLAH : Pray for allah to strike !!

Pls await direct response from ALLAH soonest! no one does (or did) what you did and got away with it!. you are DOOMED - to say the least!.

YAWNNNN, SNOOOOOOZE, SNOOOOORE, ZZZZZZZZZZ !!!!

Other allah slaves made worse threat, some may have even died on their prayer mat reciting satanic verses from the toilet paper called koran yet there is NO "direct response from allah" I am still alive !!
Maybe you are different with more beard, more Koran in your head !!

When next you get on your mat to bow to that filthy bloodthirsty demon called "allah" and his pedophile sexual pervert epileptic mohammed tell them the insult is too much, they should kill me before the end of Friday (24hrs) !!

If by Monday "allah is still NOT arkbar" enough to kill by himself he should at least be "arkbar" to give you my address so you can do it for him !!
However Jesus arms are opened wide to you or any moslem who repents !!
