From Godwin Tsa, Abuja
A former Niger-Delta agitator and freedom fighter, Endurance Amagbein, has raised the alarm on fresh plans to attack military formations in the creeks of Bayelsa State by some unidentified persons and pin it on him.
While distancing himself from the the planned attack, he declared that the era of militancy and armed agitations in the Niger- Delta region is over.
Meanwhile, Amagbein- the self-styled “General” has commended President Bola Tinubu’s government on the efforts at making lives better in the region.
In a statement made available to newsmen by his media aide, Mr Mightywind Dudafa, in Abuja, the ex-agitator said he would not relent in his clamour for peace in the region.
While condemning the plan attack,
he said nobody should give him a bad name to nail him for crimes he did not commit simply because he was once a militant.
He said he was not the only militant in the Niger Delta and that they didn’t go into militancy because of poverty, but to address the serious issues affecting the people of the region at that time.
Amagbein explained that their agitation at that period,  was to compel the Federal Government to pay attention to the oil bearing communities.
According to him, the administration of President Bola Ahmed Tinubu is doing so much to change the narratives of the people, and that nobody should portray me to be an enemy of the Federal Government and the service chiefs.
The ex-agitator said he is very appreciative of the sacrifices the service chiefs and all military personnel make to ensure there is peace in Nigeria, especially the present leadership led by Gen. Christopher Musa.
He condemned the planned attack, adding that an intelligence report at his disposal indicated moves by some persons who are bent on bringing him down at all cost to attack military men to pitch the armed forces against him once again.
He called on the leadership of the Ijaw National Congress (INC) to call those behind “this senseless acts” to order; saying that he is demoralised whenever he hears people accuse him of what he knows nothing about.
He also admonished all military personnel in the creeks of Bayelsa to be vigilant so they can live to enjoy the fruits of their labour.
Amagbein pray God to bless and protect all military personnel in Bayelsa who had denied themselves comfort just to serve their fatherland.
