MEND says British Hostage declined o be released as planned

June 1, 2009

Mr Mathew Maguire has declined the gift of a release from captivity with an argument that he is now an advocate for change in the region and a honorary member of the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND).


 
He insists that his release should only be considered when Henry Okah is freed to participate in a credible peace process or has been allowed to travel for his urgent kidney surgery.
 
This has come as a surprise to us and we can not forcibly eject him from our camp against his will.
