Just In: Oil Companies given 30 days ultimatum to vacate Ijaw Nation

Oil Companies have been given 30 days ultimatum to vacate all the territories in Ijaw Nation.

An Ijaw militant group, The Ijaw Renewal Movement, gave the ultimatum following their claims that Ijaw people have been overly marginalized despite being owners of the mineral resources sustaining the country.

The leader of the group, General Ditari, while speaking from Gbaramatu, in Delta State, said that that the Ijaw nation, is the only place in the whole world where the people are suffering despite having so much crude oil.

He also said that the Ijaw Nation takes care of the whole Nigeria, and all they get in return is Balkanization and marginalization.

“The 3 percent they claim they gave Ijaws, out of 100 percent, Ijaw will still share it with every area crude oil pipelines pass through. Every other peoples mineral resources are for them alone, Zamfara and other Northern States gold, are for them alone, it’s only Ijaw crude oil that is for everybody,” he said.

The ultimatum starts September 25 to October 25.

General Ditari also said that Ijaw Republic have been declared since September 1st 2021 and the Ijaw people cannot be in another country, and be giving their wealth to other areas, while neglecting their own.

He added that all hostilities will fully resume in Ijaw Nation, from the 26 of October, and all oil companies in Ijaw territories should voluntarily leave for their own safety, before the 26 day of October.
