"..these communities(Niger Delta), due to large-scale corruption, looting of the public treasury by the leadership at the center remain largely underdeveloped. The poorest of the poor live in these communities,..their hope dashed, their future traumatised and their children without any future. Soldiers of Northern origin are posted to these territories, as expected, they rape the people..kill them and instill fear in them." -- Liberty Forum, London. -Guardian Newspapers. Thursday July 17, 2008.

"Nigerians if you allow them, will hail an armed robber. I mean an armed robber, who can distribute money. Some people say yes, he(Yar'Adua) stole but he is distributing. He stole from the rich and gave to the poor. I mean some people can say this...there is no evidence to hope that there can be success because who is the president? This is someone who has not distinguished himself.." ---- Balarabe Musa, Former Kaduna State Governor. Daily Sun. Monday June 2, 2008.

Biafrans7, why don't you people solve the human right atrocity in your backyard? Why don't you emancipate the Osu caste?

[wheezkeed]

Biafrans7, you are nothing more than a failure, a desperado that has gained nothing than to advocate for war. Africa wants to unite and you rats wants to divide. You are the real traitors, the agents and the fez wearing fifth column. You will never divide Nigeria and throw the country into a deadly war. Your ilk shed the first blood in Nigeria. Do it again and the repercussions will be swift. You are on the wrong side of history..SELFISH RATS!!!!!!!

[wheezkeed]

Lookie, lookie here Chrischigoz, you and your ilk are on the wrong side of history. We the progressive youth are trying to stem corruption and unite the whole of Africa so that we can survive the next century. You racist, trialist, bloodthirsty, warmongering pieces of rendering wants to divide Nigeria with huge repercussions all over sub-saharan Africa because of your selfishness and pride. To hell with you, to hell with your ilk. You can never succeed!

"People know that Nigeria does not exist as a true nation. But our leaders are fraudulently holding up to the country because of the oil in Itsekiri land, in Ogoni land, in Ilaje, Ijaw land and Urhobo land and in some parts of Iboland. There was a civil war in this country and the fight was mainly to hold on to the oil(Nigeria's goal). What is holding this contraption called Nigeria together is the oil ..our people has been used.." --- Asari Dokubo. Nigerian Tribune News Sunday August 17, 2008.

To solve this problems, the west and ppl who buy this oil should stop buying it, that's the solution, they fuel corruption, and they say they are helping us.

Stop buying our resources and there would be more peace.
