· Does Wole Soyinka and Chinua Achebe support the Militant?

We must realize that not only the overwhelming delta population is supportive of the Militant acts but that a  vast majority of the “learned Brothers” either actively gives verbal support and/or contributes moneys to fund the militant organizations., ever since the demise of Ken Saro Wiwa,

  Using the mass media as a political front with a capacity to reach large and influential segments of the world population in the shortest possible time, the utterances of our learned brothers have provided factual

Information to show that they are against the Shell work in the Delta Region

  

People of prominence such as Wole Soyinka and Chinua Achebe through the mass media have affect the way that we participate in the political sphere, through becoming an important source of our knowledge by their verbalism

  

But the analysis and opinion has not in any way show that they supported the militant or am I missing something?

  Given this situation, what role can such brothers play in the delta domain to reverse this dangerous and unfortunate scenario being experienced now, what can they do with such media at their disposal in helping to resolve the lingering conflicts in the country
