DON'T GO TO SOUTERN NIGERIA- US STATE DEPARTMENT WARNS
The US State departmnet has warned all it citizens that intends to travel to Nigeria to stay clear of the Southern Niger-Delta region of Nigeria. The place has been know to be very volatile due to the activities of the youth militants in that region of the country, they called themselves the Movemnet for the Emancipation of the Niger-Delta (MEND) . The youth now specialises in kidnapping foreign workers of major Oil companies operating in that region, the latest be that of the British and American worker held hostage by the militants. A week befeore this , some filipinos were also capture and yet to be released.
The problem is given the Nigerian government sleepless night as they just can't succumb to the request ofthe militant who are asking for the release of one of their Leader Mr. Asari Dokubo who is facing trial for treason charges by the Federal governmnet and also for the release of former Bayelsa state governeor Mr. Deprieye Alameiysia who is been held for corrupt charges and also for increase revenue allocation to their area. These conditions the federal government can't succumb to. Therefore, for the interest of the foreign nationals in Nigeria, they just have to stay clear of that region now. He who has hear let him hear.
