Buhari Re-Launches War Against Indiscipline Brigade In Abuja [PHOTOS]

The President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government took the fight against corruption to another level with the re-introduction of the War Against Indiscipline, WAI.

Unveiling the brigade, the Director General of National Orientation Agency, NOA, Dr Garba Abari explained that the body will aide civil intelligence gathering in the area of insecurity, violence, kidnapping, and other forms of social vices.

Recall that Buhari as Military Head of State from 1984 to 1985, introduced WAI as a panacea for corruption and to force Nigerians into exhibiting correct ethical conduct.

The programme then had gained so much popularity, as Nigerians disciplined themselves to do the right thing. The culture even continued for a while after he was ousted.

WAI was, however, criticised for human rights abuses regarding freedom, justice and equality, as the military brought its powers to bear in enforcing discipline on Nigerians.

The Damage That We Will Wreak In S/South Shall Take FG Over Decades To Correct – Militants

The militants group, Forest Soldiers, FF, aka Isaac Boro Last Born, on Friday, in a statement by its leader, ‘General’ O. C. Ibori, aka, Baba Were 1 of Niger Delta, reiterated its warning to the federal government and the international community that it was going ahead with the attacks at the expiry of the ultimatum.

Their leader said, “The damage that we will wreak in the South South region shall take the federal government over two decades to correct, if at all there would still be the entity to be called Nigeria again, when we start our bombings."

“Before now, we employed a civilized way to make our demands, we entered into various dialogues with the federal government through Brig. Gen. Paul Boro (retd), Dr Ibe Kachikwu and Lai mohammed. On Feb. 18th, 2016, they agreed to us, the Arepo militants 1,500 amnesty slots because we were excluded in the first and second phase of the programme, but till now they have failed to do so.

It added that "We are the most dreaded militants group in Arepo. The Avengers group is like a child's play. We the militants in Arepo are not members of the avengers and we have no affiliation with them. We do not have the same ideology with them. We have been a peace loving group before now and we have been living in the Arepo neighbourhood peacefully since 2001 without causing any havoc to the Nigerian resources."

“Instead of the government given us amnesty, it brought in the military to attack us. We will use all our arsenals which we positioned in Delta, Edo, Rivers,Bayelsa,Ondo, Cross Rivers, Imo, Ebonyi, Lagos and Ogun to destabilise Nigeria and destroy all pipelines in these states.

“The government does not understand the language of peace and negotiation but violence. When we start the international community will feel the impact as all the U.N machinery in Nigeria will be touched. Foreign investors in the country will suffer irretrievable lost as oil pipelines in Edo,Imo, Rivers, Ondo, Cross River, Ogun, Bayelsa, Lagos, Ebonyi and Delta states, will be gone.”
