N’Delta Youths Condemn Attack On Jonathan’s Convoy

Niger Delta Youths have
condemned the attack on the campaign convoy of President Goodluck Jonathan at Katsina and Bauchi, saying it contradicts the non-violent accord recently signed by both the Presidential candidate of the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP) Dr. Goodluck Jonathan, and Presidential candidate of the All Progressives Congress (APC), Gen. Muhammadu Buhari.
The Niger Delta Youths who spoke under the aegis of the Niger Delta Youths Coalition (NDYC) said the attack is unacceptable and provocative.
National Coordinator of NDYC, Prince Emmanuel Ogba who addressed a press conference in Port Harcourt, last week, said at this point in the political dispensation of the country, there is need for Nigerians especially the youths to tow the line of non-violence.
Ogba, however, advised the leader of the Niger Delta Peoples Volunteer Force, Ahaji Asari Dokubo and other leaders of the Youth groups in the oil-rich Niger Delta to exercise caution and allow the APC Presidential candidate, General Buhari to campaign freely in the Niger Delta and every part of the Southern Nigeria without molestation.
He called on the West African countries under Economic and West African countries (ECOWAS) and Nigerian government to declare full scale war and smoke out members of Boko Haram, saying enough is enough.
