Quote of the day

On the independence bomb blast where he exonerated MEND: “Why am I saying that it was not MEND? That is the sin I have committed. And I always explain to people that look, this car bombs first of all happened in Benin, Edo State. Somebody even died and another in Bayelsa State, nobody made an investigation but they said it was Niger Delta cris...is. It was buried under MEND, under Niger Delta crisis. Again, another one in Port Harcourt, luckily nobody died, but the incident was buried. Then now in Abuja on October 1, they said MEND again. I said no, we cannot continue to bury this under Niger Delta crisis or MEND. That is the sin I have committed.” - President Goodluck Jonathan.
