Spokesperson of the Ijaw Youth Council, IYC, Eric Omare, who confirmed the developments to Vanguard said:
"At as Sunday morning (yesterday), information at our disposal indicates that some Ijaw people resident in Lagos and Ogun states, for fear of attack, are already relocating from their places of residence to the South-South.”However, the IYC, however, said that the ROPC members and the leaders of the Yoruba nation should allow the police do their jobs by apprehending criminals responsible for the Ogun and Lagos attacks.
In regrds to the situation at Kaiama and the fact that people are relocating due to the fear of the Adaka Boro Avengers, Omare said:
“We call on residents of Kaiama town to be calm and go about their normal activities. There is no plan by the Ijaw people to declare a republic and the threat by Adaka Boro Avengers should be disregarded.
“We wish to warn groups and individuals not to further expose Ijaw and Niger Delta communities to unnecessary tension and danger. They should not abuse modern means of information technology to the detriment of our communities by issuing unnecessary threats and ultimatums.
“We call on security agencies to stop forthwith the unnecessary threats and attacks on Ijaw and other Niger Delta communities because of threats by faceless groups. They should check issues of security with the leadership of Ijaw nation instead of threatening or attacking innocent communities and people,” he added.

What is Nigeria sef??
I reserve my comment
Calm down ke! E don start?
For this single cruel air raid attack, a lot will happen! Right now, Nigeria is like an egg, if handled carelessly, it breaks! #Sic
Hmmm
Isaid it , it not a matter of militant or not , they just want to kill the ijaws in their areas with ijaw militants excuse
Ijaws are misled by the greedy warlords and kleptomaniac politicians among them. They believe that their Epesu can shield them from bullets. If they want violence let them be prepared for the law. They pollute their water ways with excrement drink and cook from the same water. The pollute their fish habitats with Oil Spill and they expect FG to clean it up? Life is not like that. They must mend their way. MEND IS NOT EMANCIPATING ANYBODY. I am from the Niger Delta
Nawa o,may God help us.
See what a few is causing many. Now you want calm after all the ruckus.
Haba... what would the perpetrators of this needless chaos gain at the end of the day?!

AUNTY LINDA 👩
This stupid zoo country will soon be a history in Jesus name Amen
Hmmmmmmmm,what is happening to my dear country?
Lib addict#just passing#
Very very wrong, what if the Ijaws also tell the Yorubas all over the South South to leave? As a matter of fact the Yorubas occupy some of the juiciest positions in the oil companies, this thing should be handled with care or else the innocent once will suffer must.
hmmmmmmm nawa for unity in nIGERIA
-D great anonymous now as Vivian Reginalds
okay o!
This is how it starts. What is the president doing about this situation? meeting should be called and people be appeased please. If an Ijaw man cannot live in any part of the country because of fears of being attacked, they can as well declare Ijaw nation which could lead to something I don't want to spell because I dread that word.
God save Nigeria.
When you have some sense.. you can come back and comment.. the water in the Niger Delta has been polluted since the time of Ken Saro Wiwa, the quiet one that died cause he would not fight.. read a history text book and come back....
Isnt this how the civil war started. In the case of igbos, because a few igbo army guys plotted a coup which was even avenged. The people started killing igbos in thousands, even in Lagos. Shooting people bearing igbo names in Lagos airport. Hunting igbos down in their houses and sheds. Raping their women. Gowon refused to talk. Igbos decided to go home and declare their own republic in peace but they were threatened to return back. Nigerian then declared war on them and killed them in thousands.
Pls, if there is an alternative story, feel free to share it. Especially yorubas who insult us and call us all sorts. Tell me, what were they to have done. Sit back and get killed in hausa and yoruba land?
So. If ijaws decide to seize their oil and build dier own country, d same yoruba will call them selfish and ask that military should decimate them.
Why do yorubas always stand on the side of injustice and behave like cowards? (I mean, the majority)
Why Una people sef nor go school? Abi if u get company u carry school cert. holder do Finance Manager instead of someone more qualified?
Variable ONE NIGERIA. Only when one wishes.
YORUBA PEOPLE ARE PATHETIQUE. They NEVER EVER threatened the Hausa-fulani after the bloody tragedies of Mile 12 in Lagos and the burning down of a yoruba market in Ekiti by the Hausa-Fulani.
Now, they are after INNOCENT unarmed Ijaw CIVILIANS for a supposed deed of a few Niger-Deltans who may NOT all be Ijaws.
Hmm... Quite funny, so in dis people's mind, Ijaw ppl dat I know will run away... Lmao...You guys dnt have a clue on the kind of weapons dose guys use.. If ppl wan threaten Na ROPC... abegiii, wch weapon dem get? Dis Ijaw ppl can end Nigeria with d kind of weapons Dey possess...Try visiting dia arena and understand what I'm talking about ... ROPC Na eim dey threaten? lwkmd
so the ijaws can talk now,when the people were been killed and kidnapped, you people were sleeping abi? even the commissioner for police attached to Lagos state Mr Fatai Owoseni said the yorubas accommodated the ijaws and didnt report them then, why are they complaining now. The Redeemed pastor that was kidnapped is yet to be release due to the ransom they are asking for. now that we dont want them around us,you are complaining. Do you know what people are going through in this neighborhood? landlords and tenants not be able to sleep in peace with fear of been kidnapped,raped or killed and some leaving their homes in the evening to look for where to sleep then come back in the morning to prepare for the next day work. Did govt give holidays to the dispalced people? a grandmother was raped in the presence of her grandchildred, she died the next day, will that family pray for them or curse them. please let us leave sentiment aside and be truthful to ourselves. if they want to fight the govt,they know where they live and their offices, they should go there and attack them and not innocent people that are struggling to make ends meet in this harsh economy.
End time
We like the Hausas, sometimes we have misunderstandings, but we can deal with it. But you Igbo blooded people are animals, it doesn't matter if you're Ijaw or Okoro, all you people in the south south/East are deranged.
you hausas are brainless scumbags, trouble makers and materialistic set of bitches. which tribe is called okoro? you are a fool.
you hausa are stupid and wicked set of people. you are a fool. which tribe is called okoro? mumu.
