Is Buhari planning to invite 39 Islamic nations to stop Avengers?



It is being rumoured that President Mohammadu Buhari may be planing to invite 39 Islamic nations including Saudi Arabia ,to wage a war against the Niger Delta Avengers.

An online medium "Dodex news" reports that President Buhari will be bringing in Saudi Blackwater mercenaries to the Niger Delta region to effectively end the menace of Niger Delta Avengers.

President Buhari’s rationale for bringing in Saudi Mercenaries was hinged on the Federal Government’s description of militancy in the Delta region as terrorism.

The President had visited Saudi Arabia some months ago.

One outcome of that trip , it was learnt was a proposal by the Saudi Monarch for Nigeria to join a coalition of Islamic Nations against terror.

President Buhari initially denied Nigeria was not going to be part of that coalition.

On a later date, PMB disclosed in an interview he granted Al Jazeera in his visit to Doha that Nigeria was indeed part of the Islamic coalition.

According to Buhari, “We are part of it (the Islamic coalition) because we’ve got terrorists in Nigeria that everybody knows which claim that they are Islamic.
“So, if there’s an Islamic coalition to fight terrorism, Nigeria will be part of it because we are casualties of Islamic terrorism.

“Why can’t those Christians that complained go and fight terrorism in Nigeria or fight the militancy in the South.

“Nigeria that matters, not the opinion of some religious bigots,” Buhari stated.

The Islamic Military Counter Terrorism Coalition, is an alliance of 39 countries in the Sunni Muslim world united to fight ISIS and other terror activities in Islamic nations.

Since Nigeria is part of a global Islamic coalition against terrorism, then the group can also send in their forces on a nation’s request.
