| Buhari lied! We are not holding peace talks with the Nigerian government - Niger Delta Avengers |
The Niger Delta Avengers militant group has refuted claims by 'General' Muhammadu Buhari that they are holding peace talk with the Federal Government of Nigeria.
Buhari had yesterday, while granting farewell audience to the outgoing Ambassador of Germany to Nigeria, Mr. Michael Zinner, at the Presidential Villa, said that his government is in dialogue with the militants.
But in a swift reaction, the militants in a statement issued by its spokesperson, Brig.Gen Mudoch Agbinibo, said that peradventure they were to hold peace talks with the government, the international community will most definitely be a part of it.
“Our attention has been drawn to media report that the President is in touch with Niger Delta agitators including the Niger Delta Avengers but the truth is that we are not aware of any peace talk.
“If there is any such peace talk, it means the President is talking to their mercenaries set to disturb the genuine struggle of the agitators.
“President Buhari led government is not sincere to the Nigeria people and their foreign allies.
“If we are to engage in any peace talk we made it clear that the international community must be part of it. The President know our demands. So they should stop deceiving the international oil companies, the general public and the international community,” the statement read.
