We as a people have learnt our lessons and as such would not allow ourselves to be goaded into another round of crisis in our region.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> "As peac‎e-loving people, the ex-militants have changed from the war-war approach to a much peaceful and decent approach to achieving results. We owe the Nigerian state our patriotism, solidarity, loyalty as long as the federal government gives us an unfettered sense of belonging in the state.</div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: justify;"> "Whoever engages in any crime under any guise should answer to his crimes without dragging the region along with him. The Delta region comprises of so many ethnic groupings and not only the Ijaws. It therefore follows that Dokubo should speak for those who believe in him amongst his people and not for the entire region", he stated.</div> <br /> <br /> <div style="text-align: justify;"> <br /></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b>=============================================================</b></div> <div style="text-align: center;"> <b><span style="background-color: white; color: red; font-size: large;">PLACE YOUR TEXT ADVERTS HERE </span>=============================================================</b><br /> <b>Need Dubai visas (2 weeks or 3 months)?
