A militant group in Niger Delta, Adaka Boro Avengers (ABA) has threatened that it would declare the Niger Delta region an independent republic on August 1, 2016.niger-militants_bh.jpg

according to an online news platform, Independentnig the militant group on Sunday, gave the Nigerian government an ultimatum to withdraw all its personnel and establishment from the region before the date of its declaration of independence.

This is just as northerners and people from South West were also urged to vacate the Niger Delta territory.

The spokesman for ABA, General Edmos Ayayeibo, in a statement, ordered 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.”

The statement read:

“We, the Adaka Boro Avengers and all the freedom fighters in the Niger Delta region have met and come to a conclusion that we are declaring the Niger Delta Republic three weeks from today July 18, 2016.

“So we are by this notice calling on the Nigerian government to move out all military personnel and all government agencies out of the Niger Delta. Failure will lead to destruction of military barracks and personnel.

“We are, also, by this notice calling on our fathers, mothers, brothers and sisters living in the northern parts of Nigeria to return home immediately.

“We are also warning northerners and westerners to leave the Niger Delta region immediately within three weeks from now, for their own good.

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

“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 inhuman treatment given to us by Nigerian government is enough. We can no longer withstand the suffering of our Niger Delta people. They should not take us for fools.”
