Boro Day Celebration: Ijaws Urged to Jettison Disunity- MOSIEND
By Amgbare Ekaunkumo, Yenagoa, Trek Africa Newspaper
The leadership of Movement for the Survival of Izon Ethnic Nationality in the Niger Delta (MOSIEND), has described the disunity within the Ijaws states of the Niger Delta region as worst than Ebola virus.
MOSIEND, calls for proper clean up and renewal of the minds of the people, adding that it will further help in correcting every action and inaction that has rediculed their collective struggles.
The group, made their position known in a statement signed and sent to newsmen in Yenagoa, on Monday, by the National Secretary MOSIEND Worldwide, Amb. Winston Cotterel Amain, during the 2022 Isaac Boro Day Celebration in Bayelsa State.
The statement reads “Great compatriots of our struggle for the Emancipation of Ijaw Nation, I bring you greetings from the Movement for the Survival of Izon Ethnic Nationality in the Niger Delta (MOSIEND)”
Fellow compatriots, let us use today to clean ourselves from this Ebola of disunity that has turn us against ourselves, that has made us to speak or take actions that has ridicule our collective struggle for a better place in the Nigeria state. Let us use today to unlock the potentials for our Liberation through setting up Ijaws Nation Framework vis a vis Ijaws people Republic; let’s us together set up the ijaw Development plan, that will cut across Arogbo in Ondo State to Ebeano in Cross River State; let’s set up our neighbourhood watch to check mate, the helmsmen and any external invaders.
This is the fifty-four (54) celebration of the vision of our Hero, Major Isaac Adaka Boro. A vision of unity, a vision of freedom and a vision of love in the declared Niger Delta Republic.
As Mosiendes, we observed, commend, instruct and where necessary criticised especially in an event of outright contravention of the fundamentals and vision of the actualization of the Reorientation, Repositioning and Recovery of our lost grounds in the Emancipation of the Ijaw Nation.
We are disturbed to watched with disdain the disunity that has eaten so deep into our blood and marrow. Which I say is worst than Ebola disease.
Adaka Boro, which is the spiritual consciousness of Ijaw Liberation which is in the blood of every Ijaws man awaken us today to speak in unity of purpose for emergence of a South South President that will Restructure Nigeria and return the ownership of Resources back to the Communities.
The South South Zone has only govern this country for 4yrs during the military era and now. But we have help in the growth and stability of this country more than any other region. Hence we should be given the opportunity to govern this country for another four year, for the interest of peace, oneness, equality and justice.
We believes that for Nigeria to remain one, President Muhammadu Buhari GCFR and all political party leaders should as a matter of urgency resolve and zone the position of the President to the South South.
We wish to state that, Political parties in the past has failed to recognised the facts that, our support, our mobilization and Resources if pull out of any Political party, will collapse.
Therefore all political parties should take note and work towards zoning of the President to the South South, to advert the impending danger, that will engulf the entire country if the South South is not given the opportunity to do it one term of four years.
We must come together to demand the release of all freedom fighters being held in various correctional centers. We should not allow our leader, brother and friend Comrade Henry Okah die in South Africa prison. Henry Okah has not committed any crime against the Nigeria State non the South African Government, but has place his life for the enhancement of the struggle for the Emancipation of the Ijaw Nation. And the gods of ijaw land has declared him not guilty of all charges leveled against him. Going forward, the South Africa Government have no other option than to discharge, acquit and pay compensation for unlawful detention.
There is so much to do, so much to change, as the vision is passed from King Koko of Nembe to Major Adaka Boro, which is been celebrated today as the Spiritual Consciousness of Ijaws Liberation.
I quote’ the truth which makes men to be free is for the most part, the truth men prefer not to hear.
