The Ijaw Youths Congress, IYC, on Thursday warned the President Muhammadu Buhari-led Federal Government to bury the idea of arresting former President Goodluck Jonathan over the ongoing probe of massive fraud and embezzlement alleged to have taken place under his administration.
The group gave the warning in Delta State, at the annual 2016 Major Isaac Boro anniversary celebration.
Criticising the present administration for limiting its anti-corruption campaign only to the Jonathan regime, the IYC, through its President, Udengs Eradiri, urged the APC-led Federal Government to probe the Halliburton bribery case under ex-President Olusegun Obasanjo.
On the renewed militancy in the region, Udengs, said; “If they want us to talk, they must first open the Maritime University and start admitting students, then we would now sit and talk. The same issues for which Adaka Boro and Ken Saro-Wiwa were killed are the same issues the Avengers are raising.
“There are no Avengers anywhere. Settle these issues and the avengers would fizzle away, he said.
