Army planning to overthrow
Buhari's government - JNDLF

– The Joint Niger Delta Liberation
Force (JNDLF), a body of different
militant groups has warned President
Muhammadu Buhari
– The group made this known on
Tuesday, June 21 while revealing that
some top army officers are planning to
sack Buhari’s government through a
coup d’état
JNDLF, which claimed responsibility for the threats
issued on launching a missile attack which caused
pandemonium in the Niger Delta region, stressed
that people behind the coup plot were getting ready
to instigate anarchy in the region, as part of their
ulterior motive to overthrow Buhari’s government.
The militants revealed this in an electronic
statement that some high ranking army officers
were already involved in the plan of the coup,
because they approached the leaders of their
group, with an appeal that they should continue
with the ongoing attacks on oil installations and
petroleum pipelines.
JNDLF alleged that the “coup plotters” wanted
to use the continued destruction of oil facilities as
the real reason to overthrow the federal
government.

staff, Lt Gen Tukur Buratai
The electronic statement released, was signed by
those who identified themselves as ‘General’
Torunanaowei Latei (Creek Network Coordinator);
‘General’ Agbakakuro Owei-Tauro (Pipeline Bleeding
Expert); ‘General’ Akotebe Darikoro (Commander,
General Duties) and ‘General’ Pulokiri Ebikade
(Intelligence Bureau).
The militant group stated: “We are constraint
to let the cat out of the bag today that
PresidentMohammadu Buhari should be
wary about the security of this country as
some military men are making move to
remove him from power by instigating
civil unrest in the country.
“Some top military men through their civil
agents approached us to cause and
continue the vandalization of the oil and
gas pipelines in the Niger delta region so
as to use as an excuse to take over the
government from democracy to military
rule in the country.



“We said no as such plan will not work
and not in conformity with our genuine
desire of agitation.The military want to
disgrace him now and let him quickly look
into the
issues and make pronouncement for his
administration to be in peace.
“Let president should analyze certain
memo from the military concerning Niger
delta region before taking action or
otherwise the military will use that as a
platform to remove him. We know the
issue of Niger delta is political and we
preferred
political solution to resolve it but if the
president refused.”

The group further added that President Buhari
should apply the necessary measures to solve the
Niger Delta region problems, in order to for the
ploy of these top military to fail.
It said:
“We received several calls unknown to
persuade us to continue the bombing and
that when succeeded in overthrowing the
government we will be placed on a better
position, we said capital NO!
“When asked of their names they are
above Major General’s level. They refused
to disclose their names but their
intonations seem like yoruba and Hausa.
Our agitation is not for selfish interest but
for the overall benefit of the Niger delta
region.
“We’ll not kidnap any person, kill or
hostage taking of any expatriate in the
country but will continue our agitation
with clear determination to actualize our
course in Nigeria.
“We believe their sinister plan because
their is ceasefire in the region for
dialogue, but since then the attitude and
actions of the service chiefs show that
such plan could work for them.”
