Militant group, Niger Delta Avengers, have reportedly agreed to dialogue
with the Federal government to find a solution to the lingering crisis
in the Niger Delta region. This development is contained in a statement
released today by the spokesman for the dialogue group, Ballantyne
Agiri. The statement in part reads:
“The body has collectively and willingly agreed to heed the clarion call
of eminent Nigerians and international community to dialogue with the
Federal Government. The federal government should from the inception of
the dialogue rule out from the agenda any monthly monetary inducement or
stipend for the NDA.
The
federal government should be ready for structural changes that should be
human and development oriented. Members of the avengers’ group (who
will participate in the dialogue) have already been selected, each based
on his integrity, forthrightness, honesty and life track records. The
names of members of the group for now shall not be made public for
personal reasons until they begin functioning in few days ahead.”
