MEND is fighting just cause. The British colonized Nigeria and put us into the mess we are facing today, Nigeria still remain among the poorest states in the world today dispite our oil wealth. The British should share from our mess, that is reeping from what they sow. The MEND should treat the hostages with kindness while waiting to hear from Nigerian Government and their so called newly established Niger-Dealta Ministry.
