Jomo Gbomo Nigerian Quotations

We are also considering the release of the Thai, Egyptian and Filipino hostages as well. Their countries do not have interests in the Nigerian oil industry.

We are interested in hostages of countries with interests in the Nigerian oil industry because their home governments will transfer the pressure they feel onto Nigeria's government. The hostages won't be freed any time soon.

There has been no confrontation so far between our units and Nigerian soldiers.

Anyone captured after this, as will surely be the case, will not be so lucky. These oil workers will soon understand that they don't stand a chance relying on the promises of safety by the Nigerian government and military.

That the Nigerian military has been preparing for weeks only for their incompetence to be revealed in mere minutes is enough warning to oil companies and their workers that they stand no chance against any of our units in the event of an attack.

The Nigerian government is not sufficiently impacted to consider the conditions we have laid out before them and we perhaps need to be more ambitious in our attacks on oil facilities. Whether we will achieve this objective remains to be seen.

For now, their release is tied to the fulfillment of our stated conditions by the Nigerian government. We know that won't happen so soon, so in other words we intend keeping these guys for a long, long time.
