We have noted with amusement, the vituperations against President Goodluck Ebele Jonathan by the renegade faction of the Movement for the Emancipation of the Niger Delta (MEND) headed by the convicted terrorist, Henry Okah in a statement issued to endorse the presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Gen Buhari.
While we thank all people of the Niger Delta, including the former militants whom MEND claims to represent who have already disassociated themselves from the statement issued by the faceless Jomo Gbomo and reaffirmed their unflinching support for President Jonathan’s re-election, we will like to state that the latest assault on the President by Henry Okah and his stooges did not come as a surprise to us at all.
It was very much to be expected, coming as it did from an individual and group who have never hidden their vengeful personal animosity against the President and who have even gone to the extent of launching murderous assaults on venues at which the President was present on two occasions. It is most regrettable indeed that rather than show remorse for the terrorist acts against his fatherland for which he is now rightly serving a term of imprisonment in South Africa, Henry Okah continues to pursue a pointless personal vendetta against President Jonathan who continues to advance and protect the interests of the people of the Niger Delta which Okah and his group threatened with their misguided actions.
The vituperations against President Jonathan in the MEND statement endorsing General Buhari are mischievous, baseless and deliberately styled to denigrate the good works of the President. It is well known that President Jonathan played a significant role in ending the militancy and insurgency in the Niger Delta. Under his watch, the destruction of oil facilities and the incessant kidnapping and killing of expatriates in the Niger Delta waterways have become a thing of the past. The attempt by Jomo Gbomo’s MEND to rewrite history by tarnishing the person of President Jonathan for selfish, pecuniary and political gains will amount to an exercise in futility.
All patriotic and right-thinking Nigerians must consider an endorsement from a convicted criminal and his group who harbor evil intentions against the unity and progress of their country as a poisoned chalice. President Jonathan would never have accepted such an endorsement from terrorists and renegades. The President therefore advises General Buhari not to place any stock on his purported endorsement by the renegade faction of MEND which is led by a convicted and unrepentant terrorist with whom no leader who truly means well for Nigeria should be associated

This shit is real....they should relax jooor.....its obvious GEJ is afraid of MEND....he is placing so much attention on the endorsement
Lol
More drama please
So many pple r against GEJ. But who needs the support of militants?
Nonsense
Okay then!
Okay
Reuben abati always shooting himself in d foot,is asari dokubo any better dan henry okah?? D niger Delta are against Jonathan, didn't u see s turn out for buharis campaign in bayelsa?? Y didnt he release a statement to d pple of bayelsa?? Nigerians are wiser now.. We want change
All this back and forth...
All this verbal exchange of words,blames,accusations ,criticisms and what have you is getting outta hand.GEJ and GMB should go on a public debate instead of all this roadside actions of uncivilized politicians.Enough already!
election telemundo...............
A convicted criminal.yes but what about tompolo,asari,alameseigha that continue to wine and dine with the presidency?
sssshhhhhaaaarrrraaapppp!!!! nobody wants a terrorist's support or endorsement. The only reason this bored Abati is releasing statement is the shock from the fact that Buhari has nija delta supporters, not everybody from nija delta is a thug or a terrorist and I am sure if and i mean if Okah did endorse Buhari, Buhari does not welcome it.
We would like to know see d end of dis lugubrious saga
My presido no fear u hear.
Jonathan is letting people around him blind him. The truth is that most of the nation sees him as inept and totally incompetent to head this country. It's sad that even as weak as he is,he cannot tell himself the truth.
If Reuben Abati would only speedily respond to matters concerning Nigerians the way he does this,he might be half passable.
this people are really afraid.look at what the pdp chairman said just yesterday.
Story for d gods... Allow ur work to speak for u...
linda like u i sidon de watch, but e be like say them (pdp) de fear.

Ok
Okay!

This is a press release I've been expecting.
Mr President really needs to caution some of his aides.
It is only in this country that people are paid for talking even wen they v nothing to talk about, but just to let d masses know they exist they react to every comment from critics whether constructive or otherwise. Its obvious this Abati man's portfolio is as good as useless. If this is what the office is all about, then of what use is it to our political economy; ,may be he doesn't understand his job or he just want to be noticed. Nigeria, God save us from this selfish and corrupt government.

.👏BIG BROTHER SAYS SO.👏
Na una know! If they had endorsed the PDP candidate this wouldn't have come up. GEJ and his people are bunch of hypocrites. Why have they not come to condemn criminals like FFK and his likes? Known looters and enemy of this nation who is now hob-knobbing with the presidency?
PDP party nd his group re more dan terrorist seriously speaking! infact ur time has expire in aso rock orga GEJ! Vote Buhari nd Osinbajo! For president for change nest month gbam carry go

100% in support of this position. GEJ represent Light and will never accept support from agent of darkness. Birds of the feather conglomerate to the nearest proximity. GMB is a supporter of insurgency, so is not a thing of surprise that insurgents are supporting him too.

I tire abeg
So what moral right has Gej got to label anybody as a convict when we saw him reversing the conviction of another felon who already served his term in lagos prison and who is now a very prominent member of his campaign team in Lagos and the entire south west?
This Clueless man....Did he not spring to the defense of MEND when they bombed Abuja and at the same time that they were claiming responsibility?
His exact quote was, "What happened yesterday was a terrorist act and MEND was just used as a straw; MEND is not a terrorist group.
"It is erroneous to think that my people who have been agitating for good living will deliberately blow up the opportunity they have now."
This is una President, intellectually deficient and a lush...
Abati, you are just a fool. Must you make political statements to score a cheap point. Or is it paining your oga that people from his side are endorsing his rival. You are too petty for my liking.
Please note that even pm newspaper won't take you back. Broke bastard. Sold his reputation for a plate of ewa goin.
2015 presidential election. ...god save us. Pipo say America go com separate naija ooooo if buhari win. Watching all d dramas
Hmm. Ds election will be tough. It should come and pass sef. Henry killed scores of Nigerians, no party should be assosiated with him na
Buhari is an affliction,he shall not rise up a second time. He ruled in 1983.
GEJ Untill 2019
Come Failbuhari 2015,Failburari will loose as usual.
How can we vote an illitrate as president,what will international community call us. abeg GEJ untill Ibuhari gets first degree
The presidency , under Dr Ebele Jonathan has failed the nigeria state .we are stagnant as a nation.under his watch, corruption was further legalised.
Bunch of RETARDS.
Reuben Abati or whatever he's called is so full of sheet! GEJ is full of sheet, I really can't wait for them to get out of d state house. How can pdp work hand in hand with militants even allocate huge tax payers money to them to squander yet have d guts to say this against apc!!Mfkers
Na so so big grammar we the read! We do hear
Asari nko?
Pls face d problem of this country abeg and stop blowing big grammar on every issue oooo
It's evident that Buhari's is gaining ground day-by-day. GEJ and his stooges are total confused. They didn't expect this kind of a massive support for gmb. Meanwhile, gej should stop attacking his opponent's personality, rather he should prove to us that his 6 yrs as Nigeria president is not a drawback for us.

How times change! Same MEND who bombed Nigeria into helplessly nominating Jonathan as VP are now terrorists? Same MEND whom Tompolo Jonathan's man Friday openly admitted to leading on several occasions?
Well, what's good for the goose is def good for the gander.... If they sucessfully muscled in Jona, why should another Nigerian not qualify?
On behalf of the General, ENDORSEMENT ACCEPTED! All against can take a dip in the heart of the Atlantic.
George Joseph (future teller), hope you will not commit suicide if APC wins in February?
Ghen Ghen! Cnt wait!
Ok **DOPEY SAID SO**
Onyx, I always thought u were one of the reasonable people on LIB...dnt let me change my opinion..u guys are really supporting this terrorist that said during his 2011 campaigning Shit that this country will be ungovernable if he doesn't win..isnt it obvious he's the one spare heading the insurgencies and disturbances of Goodluck's tenure...as elders will say,the devil u knw Naw is better than the angel u dnt knw...he's promising everyone heaven and earth..i pray when he gets there, he won't islamize the country and cut off the heads of Christians that ain't ready to comply...by that time, I hope it won't be too late...#THINk

Hehehe....LMFAO.. u dey vex seriously
A convicted terrorists in Asari Dokubo has been campaigning for GEJ and even threaten d unity of nigeria if jonathan is not re-elected and GEJ hasn't disassociated himself from him(asari)....this pple think we r fools
feb. is already here.may the most credible candidate win#say_no_to_rigging#say_yes_to_free_and fair_election#say_yes_to_credibility
I can see why some ppl tag GEJ n his govt a kindergarten govt, it's ds same importance they attached to endorsement by a thug dat dey attached to thugs like Tompolo n asaris in giving them contract in 100s of billion! If they are a serious minded govt that hv something to show for d 6 yrs it's in power, they would not even dissipate it energy n time for petty issues like this!
If that be the case the president too should watch out for people like the writer and asari Dokubo who where once ant government until their brother came to power mind your own biz anybody can endorse anybody answer obasonjo on what happened to money in excess crude acct and live endorsement
Empty threats....
Why is GEJ's PDP so worried about too many things? A clergy showed support for change, PDP got offended. Now a militant group shows support for change, again they're offended.I doubt if they had got the endorsment of MEND like they have from Asari Dokubo they would publicly reject it. They are simply against anyone who shows support for a changed Nigeria. It looks like Nigeria is under a siege by these goons.
So what of Asari Dokubo who has been heralding his support for GEJ? Check very well before commenting. Don't just write comments out of impulse.
Jonathan's government welcomes praises from anyone, be it a clergy or a militant, but attacks anyone (clergy or militant) who clamour or show support for a changed and better Nigeria. What is this?
Its too late to make amends or blame each other. Buhari never gave up on the presidential seat, his strategies and years of planning are finally paving for him. GEJ didn't wise up early enough to realize this. This battle is btw APC and PDP and our vote wont matter coz the deed is done.
i sit down too they watch
Anon 12:52am, why lie. Where you there when he said it? Or did you hear it on recorded media? Or did you hear it from someone else? We say things in this country like we were there when things happened. Go and get your facts right because every time you tell a lot the devil welcomes you into he's fold every time
The likes of Tom polo, Asari Dokubo, Africa, Ateke Tom & d rest of them in Niger delta that this same govt spends billions on , what are they? Children of light abi? Biko, think b4 u comment.
GEJ should end his accusation gimmicks, and stop blaming people over the failure of Nigeria. He should simply go and let a new air come in.
