 PRESS STATEMENT

                 TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN

Our attention has been drawn to a recent threat letter purportedly written to First Bank Nigeria Plc unbehalf of the Niger Delta Peoples Volunteer Force (NDPVF) by some faceless individuals.

NDVPF is a nationalist and self determination group whose mission statement and declarations honorably makes it anti-criminal; pursuing the greatest good for the greatest number.

We, the Niger Delta Peoples Salvation Front (NDPSF) wish to make the following declarations:

1. The NDPVF is involved in agitation for self-determination within the provisions of international law, viz; Universal Declaration on Human Rights, United Nations Convention on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples, Africa Charter on Human and Peoples Rights. This is reflected in their mission statement

2. The Niger Delta struggle is aimed at returning sovereignty to the peoples and ensuring environmental, socio-economic and natural justice to the people.

3. It is natural that criminals will capitalize on this seeming state of anarchy to rob individuals and organizations.

4. We condemn in totality, all criminal activities perpetrated by individuals or groups in the name of the Niger Delta struggle as it runs contrary to the natural laws of our land.

5. We call on the management and staffs of First Bank Nigeria plc. To disregard the purported threat letter as it did not emanate from NDPVF. Some con men and fraudsters are at work!

6. We further call on the government of the Nigerian state to resolve the Niger Delta imbroglio by following the agreement reached with our patriotic and esteemed leader, Alhaji Mujahid Abubakr Dokubo-Asari  on October Ist, 2004.

Thanks.

The struggle continues!

Mark Olise

Director of administration.
