This is according to a statement issued yesterday by Cynthia Whyte, the spokesman of Reformed Niger Delta Avengers (RNDA), a the group that recently split from Niger Delta Avengers (NDA).
The group named several former and serving governors as sponsors of the Niger Delta Avengers. Those named as “sponsors” included Governors Nyesom Wike of Rivers State and Seriaki Dickson of Bayelsa, Senator Godswill Akpabio, ex-militant Government Ekpemupolo (alias Tompolo)
Others are: Former President Goodluck Jonathan, Raymond Dokpesi, the founder of African Independent Television (AIT), the Indigenous Peoples of Biafra (IPOB), Kingsley Kuku, Kimi Angozi, and Patrick Akpobolokemi
RNDA had recently declared its opposition to NDA’s destruction of oil infrastructure in the region, warning that it would disclose the names of individuals and groups backing the NDA. Whyte’s statement revealed that the NDA’s sympathizers included Edwin K. Clark, Tony Uranta, Daniel Alabrah, Ms. Annkio Briggs, and Olisa Metuh.
.
RNDA named Oyege Nimi Brown, VIP Timothy, Joshua Macaiver, Paul Bebenimibo and others as the main operatives of the NDA, adding that Udengs Eradiri, the president of the Ijaw Youth Council (IYC), also known as Brigadier General Murdoch Agbinibo, serve as the NDA’s chief spokesman.
However, speaking with SR from Zambia, GEJ dismissed the list released and and said he did not wish to trade words with Cynthia Whyte. He said that the names of those listed suggested that a political agenda informed the composition of the list and clarified that he was in no way tied to the NDA, because his ambition is not worth the blood of any Nigerian
