Buhari and Tompolo to the best of my knowledge entered into
alliance, some weeks after the Presidential inauguration where the later wanted
the cooperation of the former to ensure that there is peace in the Niger Delta
and that Biafra agitators do not form alliance with Niger Delta militants. This
alliance was a result of intelligence reports that elements within the Niger
Delta Militants and Biafra Agitators were being sponsored by agents of the
Peoples Democratic Party to blow up oil pipelines and make the Buhari
Government suffer economic crunch.
Militants from both
the Niger Delta and the South East attended a meeting where agreement to blow
up oil installation was discussed and I was also aware of that meeting. Buhari
was advised by intelligence sources, political advisers and loyalists to cut
off sections of the Niger Delta Militants from teaming up with Biafra
agitators. This was coming at the heels of renewed uncensored vulgar messages
from Nnamdi Kanu of Radio Biafra conditioning the minds of the people that
Buhari is a terrorist-elect, child rapist and all manners of things said
without consultation with the Igbo nation.
