A founding member of the Pan-Niger Delta Forum (PANDEF), Kennedy Orubebe, has said that Nigeria will boil if former President Goodluck Jonathan is arrested as a fallout of his invitation by a Federal High Court.
Speaking during the weekend to New Telegraph newspaper in Warri, Delta State, Orubebe said any effort to probe the ex-President should commence with thorough investigation into all sleaze practices carried out under previous Presidents and Heads of state.
Orubebe said: “I vehemently say that for them to make any mistake of arresting Jonathan will not augur well for the present government. But we know that past Presidents and Heads of State in the country have committed a lot of atrocities against this country and nobody raised an eyebrow. I repeat if Buhari’s government makes any attempt to arrest President Jonathan, it will not be taken kindly particularly by the Ijaws. In fact, the country will burn.
“I know for sure that Buhari’s government will not arrest Jonathan. So, let’s leave it like that. But in case it happens, the entire Niger Delta will boil and Buhari will not be comfortable wherever he is. In fact, government should not think of that.
“Although Jonathan ignored his people when he was in power and developed the North, be that as it may, let this government remember that he (Jonathan) came from somewhere because he remains our son no matter what.
“If the government wants to make any arrest, they should start from the past Presidents and Heads of State that did something unconstitutional against this country. I remember that Chief Obasanjo’s name was mentioned in the Halliburton scandal; so, they should not think of arresting Dr. Jonathan because it will backfire seriously on them.”
He decried what he referred to as disparaging statements made against Jonathan by Buhari’s aides, stating that that was uncalled for. According to him, there is nothing unusual about opposition party speaking against politics of the incumbent, provided they are based on facts.
He advised Jonathan, however, to maintain a dignified silence and feel free to offer advice privately to President Buhari when need be, even as he (Jonathan) should speak out when his government or person is being vilified or Nigerians are fed with lies about him.
Ex-president Goodlock, Ebele Jonathan is the pride of Nigeria and cannot be arrested. The Niger Deltans are peaceful people committed to the development, peace and unity of our dear country Nigeria. My advice to PMB. Nigerians must sustain our democracy, the footprint of GEJ in the unity of this country Nigeria should’nt elude you so soon, particularly now that we are facing hard times. Please sir, Nigerians need sustainable and inclusive development, good economy, infact so meny issues to address. Arresting GEJ is not what we need now.
Repeating what he has said during election.
Umunne m na umunna m, a si na ewu richaa ji onye uso ala, ya abata na nke onye etiti.
It will be most unwise for Buhari to do that, as a matter of fact he is incapable of doing such

In my Vision of the night two years ago Jonathan was killed by hausa /fulani and if time is not taken it will come to pass because Jonathan is sold his people to the zoo government

Northing will happen I think you people are Niger deltans? Good morning to you
Correct!
Yes mumu Goodluck Jonathan deserve to be arrested cos when he was on seat, Asari Dokubo was telling him what to do for the betterment of his people but he prefer to dance and drink tea with these useless Hausa/Foolanis. To me he is the most stupid human being on earth. Buhari should arrest him and put him in kuje prison or kirikiri.
If empty threat works, with the disappearance of Kanu, Nigeria would’ve turned to ashes.
ball ot ball are you the one that made kanu disappear and how come their family aren’t complaining?
we pray buhari and his agent of darknes wont try it

You can only be aggresive through verbal diatribes.You were good in making incendiary statements but weak to fulfil.Are you going to commands the burnig of the country?Many before you had made such wacky admonishing but failed woefully to ascertains their devillish target.You are setting fire to cooks yourself or excavating grave to bury yourself.Ask Nnamdi kanu about the repercussion of inflammatory statements.He was considering himself as brave and man of intriques.Where is he today?Whenever you see someone’s beard on fire be swift to press yours with water. s n
You comment is pointless
