Can't take that offer - The British government has warned that its citizens should leave the Niger Delta area forthwith.

But seriously, this just highlights a problem that might just become so intractable and out of the control of the new President.

If these people do acquire this kind of organisational ability and efficiency - we have not begun to see seriously high oil prices yet.

LOL, Very funny!!!!
The Federal Government has warned that none of its citizen should apply for this dangerous job, because they shall be out of job since Federal Government has a brilliant formula to douse the Niger Delta Problems.

Its funny but I still worry about my close friends working there. Four of my friends' colleagues were taken the other day, I hope he's not next. Being Nigerian seems to make no difference down there from what he says. I think it was inevitable that, having studied Chemical Engineering I'd have friends there. All I can do is hope he's OK.

I received this email too from a friend and laughed.

But truly, I reject the notion of a militant Niger delta. Even if it does seem this way…. Of late
I am concerned about this situation, especially since I have watched it grow and grow… I don’t think the situation is being handled as it ought to. Without the oil in this region the Niger delta’s position is terribly dispensable…now it s almost like ‘expatriates are going, let’s do something’.

I am from the Niger delta. I live in Port Harcourt. We all know that the flawed situation here has been hijacked by thieves, oil bunkers and war lords who have supporters in government…. Let me not begin to whine.., but for many, like me, here, the sentiment is the same…

We refuse this baggage…
We reject Violence
We insist on our peaceful, quiet lives by our water sides (as polluted as they may have become)
We choose to remain

I think its funny you know. However, like one Oyinbo guy said Nigeria will rise above anything and thats just the way we were wired. We rise above all challenges and crisis, that is we feared:)
I am hopeful......
