“The Niger Delta is not a conquered territory and our people have never succumbed to intimidation before, rather we match force with the oppressor’s brutality.
“The Nigerian government should already know that the people of this part are not fools, who will not be able to see when they are being treated with disdain.”
It also reiterated its warning that Nigerians living close to oil pipelines leave immediately to avoid being injured.

Wow! Checkout Charly Boy’s Thoughts On Being Gay
A couple of days after the issue of him locking lips with eccentric presenter, Denrele Edun was revisited by the Nigerian media, controversial entertainer Charly boy a.k.a Areafada, has revealed his stance on why being gay is not evil.
Following the kiss he ‘shared’ with Denrele (see picture below), rumours circulated that the ‘weird one’ was actually a homosexual, despite being a married man and having several kids and even grandchildren. Some even concluded that the kiss was a confirmation of Denrele’s sexual preference (which has been questioned a lot).
In a post titled ‘JUDGE NOT’ which he shared on his website, Charlie boy wrote:
“Does not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you. Matthew 7:1-2
The Nigerian social media highway is most times polluted by silly, stupid judgemental comments, reminds me of the drivers I see on our roads. Rude, reckless, careless with a foul mouth filled with unprintable yarns. Check out comments on some blogs, even on my facebook page, some comments are obviously ignorant, stupid or down right off the hook in relationship to the issue. Some of our social media junkies have an opinion as if anybody send dem and a lotta times it is so crazily judgemental. Haba. I consider myself a liberal minded kinda fella. I try never to judge, even though total strangers have been ignorantly unkind and judgemental about my treasured brand, Charly boy. I have walked my journey guided by the philosophy, “live and let live”.
Recently, there was this trending story of an American who married his Nigerian gay partner, David Shoen-Ukre, in New York on July 30, who accused Nigerian bloggers, of causing the couple harm by publishing their stories without permission. The rain of curses/abuse, and the terrible judgemental comments the ensued after the story broke, was incredible. Many concluded that the couples were Evil. I have never seen hate and ignorance come so alive in words.
While I cannot speak louder than the stupidity of other people who will disagree with me on this, NO, being gay is not Evil!! A man marrying a man maybe a hard pill for a lot of us to digest, but the world has changed even since I took a dump this morning.
Don’t judge others simply because they sin differently than you. Every aspect of humans are diverse. Skin color, tribal marks/culture, height/weight, religious beliefs/tastes, everyone thinks differently and are different. We see what we see from where we stand. What is Evil to me, are the men in Agbada/Uniform who sold are country, our future and rendered most of us hopeless, future less, obnoxiously poor in a land filled with plenty. They are the VERY EVIL ONE’s, and we are feeling the effect of their EVIL.
I have always said that people’s sexual preferences are their cup of tea. Even though many will swear that I am gay too, hummm for dem pocket. I however must confess that I have a few close associates, casual friends who are Gay, and I truly don’t mind their company or friendship. Infact I have found the few of them, with very warm hearts, and fantastic soul. Yes o! And for those modafuckers who would want to come and quote bible for me, this is a piece from the same Holy book. Titus 3:2-7
To speak evil of no one, to avoid quarreling, to be gentle, and to show perfect courtesy toward all people. For we ourselves were once foolish, disobedient, led astray, slaves to various passions and pleasures, passing our days in malice and envy, hated by others and hating one another. But when the goodness and loving kindness of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of works done by us in righteousness, but according to his own mercy, by the washing of regeneration and renewal of the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us richly through Jesus Christ our Savior. Shey you grab?
So?
Let’s make sure our comments are germane to the topic, let’s be concise in our comments, demonstrating respect for people and ideas whether we agree or disagree with them and limit ourselves to decency. Make we no dey show how small our mind dey. I don talk my own o.

BREAKING NEWS!! Buhari’s Bodyguards Protest
– Allege that many of the key actors in Buhari’s government, who did not work for him, have denied them access to him.
– The group say they deserve to be recognised, compensated and remunerated, considering the volume of work and gravity of the sacrifices they made for the president.
Bodyguards who worked for Muhammadu Buhari in the months leading up to the 2015 general elections have protested against their exclusion by those they described as cabals in the government.
They said about 16 months after the 2015 presidential elections, the only reward they got for their efforts during the campaigns was N20,000 paid to them in January and February 2015.
The Punch reports that spokesperson for the group, Badiru Olabiyi Balogun and three other members, Audu Odemeho, Kasim Abdullahi Hassan and Zubairu Idris, at a press briefing on Thursday August 11, alleged that “some cabals have hijacked the president”.
They said many of the key actors in Buhari’s government, who did not work for him, have denied them access to him, warning that their marginalisation constitutes security threat to the nation.
“Right now, we need Mr. President to appreciate our hard work for him. We need Mr. President to recognise the fact that we have lost everything because we championed the change agenda.They said haven served President Muhammadu Buhari as his personal bodyguards during the electioneering campaign, they deserved to be recognised, compensated and remunerated, considering the volume of work and gravity of the sacrifices they made for the president to assume the office he had desired all these years.
“Definitely, it is not just our exclusion that is a security threat to the country. Anything that would deny any man his dues and legitimate rights can be concluded to mean a security threat because when you don’t get your dues and what is rightly due for you, then you are opened to a lot of temptations.2So, we are indeed a security threat”, Balogun stated.
“We had to abandon things that were so dear to us, including our families and the things we were doing before because all of us needed change. We believed that we had all it takes. And now, having done all that we did, nobody has recognised our efforts. All through the 15 months and 90 days of the campaign, not a dime was given to us”, Balogun said.One of the aggrieved men, Zubairu, said that recently, when he went to the Mosque in Aso Rock to worship, the president was elated and exclaimed: “Zubairu (Idris), where have you been? I’ve been looking for you.”
Zubairu said he was thereafter warned by an aide to the president to steer clear and never come back to the mosque again for prayer.
“One of the President’s aides warned me never to near or enter the mosque again for worship. He specifically told me to go and worship Allah in another mosque and not the one in Aso Villa because God is everywhere,” he said.
Meanwhile, a report by Premium Times says Nigerians who supported President Muhammadu Buhari in the 2015 election, are now, not only disappointed in his government, but apologising to other citizens who they may have convinced to vote for the All Progressives Congress at the period.
Many of these former supporters are not happy and think that the president lacks the political will and capacity to fight the many challenges he inherited and for which former President Goodluck Jonathan was booted out of office through the election.
