NIGER DELTA WAR, JONATHAN GOODLUCK SHOULD RESIGN NOW!
Icheoku commends the chairman of the Nigeria Federal Government's Vision 2020 Sub-Committee on the Niger Delta, Prince Tonye TJT Princewill for resigning his office, in protest, over the massacre of his people of the South-South Niger Delta by the Nigerian government! What a selfless patriot and a real leader this prince is, who will not stand and watch the government which he is a member of, wantonly massacring his people! Well done, Tonye! Based on this courageous display of qualitative leadership by Prince Tonye TJT Princewill, Icheoku hereby call on the Vice President of Nigeria Jonathan Goodluck and all remaining members of President Umaru Yar'Adua's administration from the Niger Delta and the entire South-South, to resign immediately in tow, in solidarity, and to protest the ongoing 'genocide of oil' in their homeland. Duty calls and Vice President Jonathan Goodluck must so answer by resigning now! No amount of gold in Aso-Rock is worth selling-out your people by abandoning them in this their time of dire need! If your power cannot be used to the benefit of your people, then why seek and hold it? Ken Saro Wiwa was killed for oil and now what is left of the people of the Niger Delta are being killed-off, while Vice president Jonathan Goodluck is cozying up to the feudalistic mallams from the Sahara desert, in the name of being a loyal vice president? What manner of a man will be having a party while his house is ablaze but Jonathan Goodluck? Power is ephemeral and with what face will he return home to the Niger Delta area someday to explain why he stood akimbo while watching the northerners massacre his people? When has anybody killed off the Fulanis because they will not part with their cattle for a mere pittance? So why must it be the people of the Niger Delta South-South that must be forced to give up their oil because the oligarchs said so? Jonathan, your people are being annihilated, don't you get it?
Icheoku says, this ongoing carnage on "disposable" Nigerians must stop forthwith; otherwise let Nigerians review their continued existence as an entity? Enough of this bullshit from the north and by the north against a helpless peoples of the Niger Delta; whose only sin is that they are asking for a reasonable fair share of their own nature-endowed resources! This is the time for all men in the Niger Delta to stand up and be counted as the northerners do not have any extra ball to be lording it over Nigeria, unchallenged? The Niger Delta/South-South governors should immediately protest the ongoing carnage in Abuja and threaten non-cooperation, if it does not cease immediately. Where are your souls Nigerians, that you should remain silent while fellow Nigerians are once again, being slaughtered or is Odi and Zaki-Ibiam not enough blood-shed already? The man died in him who keeps silent in the face of tyranny; are the men in Nigerians, all dead? Speak up, Icheoku commands you and end the onslaught in the Niger Delta now! Give to Niger Delta what is theirs and let them pay taxes on it to the federal government! It is the right thing to do! It is equitable! It is the practice all over the rational world and it is also commonsensical!
