In an electronic mail statement issued in Yenagoa, Bayelsa State, by the group’s Spokesman, ‘General’ Columbus Okolobo, the REA specifically pledged to hunt down the leadership of the RNDA, which it said had become the mouthpiece of politicians, who are bent on ruining the ex-president’s “rising profile.”
It described the purported security/intelligence report linking Jonathan to the rising militancy in the area as a cover for its sinister motives and advised the group to return to the original tenets of the struggle.
“The lid has blown open over Cynthia Whyte, as Nigerians now understand that same person is the spokesperson for MEND and the RNDA. We urge them to quit acting scripts because they can no longer masquerade; the carpet is off their feet.
“The cordial relationship between RNDA and other militant groups with security agencies points to the fact that there is a romance to hatch devilish allegations and machinations against perceived political foes,” the REA alleged.
In a related development, the Special Adviser to the President on Niger Delta, Brig. Gen. Paul Boro (rtd), said that the Presidential Amnesty Programme has transformed the lives of former Niger Delta agitators.Boro, who spoke at the graduation of 80 ex-agitators at Innoson KIARA Academy in Enugu, yesterday, said the Federal Government was impressed with the response of the participants. He added that government would ensure that none of the graduates missed their track, but drive to prosperity following their participation in the nine months course.
