Vacate Niger Delta Before August 1 - Militants To Northerners

The Adaka Boro Avengers (ABA) militant group has announced that it will declare the Niger Delta region as an independent republic on the 1st of August 2016.

The group said it had concluded arrangements with other militant groups to make the declarations.

Spokesman of the group, General Edmos Ayayeibo, its spokesperson, mandated the Federal Government to use the three weeks’ notice to “move out all military personnel and all government agencies out of the Niger Delta,” and warned that “failure will lead to destruction of military barracks and personnel.”

It also ordered all northerners and people of the South West to vacate its territory.

“If they refuse to heed to our warning, we will use so many as example in the Niger Delta region on the due date," it said.

“We are telling the Nigerian government that enough is enough and we are taking our independence by force. We have our foreign backers, so we are not afraid of the Nigerian government but ready for total war," the group said.
