- In this edition of BIH we bring to you the story of the destruction of an oil-bearing community in Bayelsa State of Nigeria in November 1999 by the Armed Forces of Nigeria under the command of President Olusegun Obasanjo then president and commander in chief of the armed forced of Nigeria. It was one of the darkest moments in the history of Nigeria. Houses were destroyed by soldiers. Humans were killed in their numbers. Children were caught in the crossfire and the community was left with scars that will be difficult to heal in many years.

This video only pick a part of the story that seems to go in its line. I was rounding off secondary school at this time. I wasn't privy to the event but I learnt of some other versions of the event
1. Some soldiers were killed in Odi. Not only were they killed, they were hung on a tree. That's treason to a Nation. Don't forget Obasanjo was a military general. How do you think he will take this?
2. There were reports of the community collaborating with the militants.
3. Before the invasion, the military notified the community. This video also says that but the community believed in the militants withstanding the Nigeria Army. They've been pre-warned to vacate the community.
4. This video also says the state governor calls for federal intervention that the situation is beyond his control.
Before you crucify Obasanjo, get into Obasanjo's shoe at the time and know what he's facing. It is true that civilised society, example USA, may not handle the situation like this but have you ever heard of a civilised society killing its Army, hanging their bodies and engaging them in gunbattle. If you act like in the jungle, expect a jungle treatment.
By your logic every northern community as well as South Eastern villages would have been burnt. There is no justification for this evil.
These people have the history for violence and crime until now especially for the killing of the recent 17 innocent soldiers that lead to yet another destruction in the village
I just heard about this story today but it was told in another way, i was told that obasanjo visited them but they stoned him because the people have extra ordinary spiritual power that made them fearless and violence
A great video Sir
You are going to be a big TH-camr.
Not one person has recognized that this wouldn't have happened if those militants had not killed those polices, none of these would have happened in the first place
Unfortunately that picture is not Odi but Odioama community in Brass LGA in Bayelsa state after being destroyed by the military in February 19 2005. Till this day nothing have been done by the government to relieve the suffering of the people.
This is really sad indeed.
It's unfortunately for Obasanjo to take such decision during his regime which is not right for a head of state to take such decision if he really humidity, it's the same think also happen in my country Sudan during Omar Al Bashir regime alot of people were kill in Darfur region where I came from half of million people lost there life because of such leaders which we have today in Africa, May there souls continue to rest in peace.
Obasanjo should be in jail for life.
same scenario happening between gaza palestinian and isreal , When you harbor a criminal in your house you can later be infected by the consequences, Americans will always dial the code 911 when they spot a fishy movement, inform the authorities and let the authorities do there job , reverse is the case in nigeria , because a terrorist is your brother you will harbor that person into your community, later when the consequences come then we all cry and blame the government , it’s pathetic
That's if you can prove that Obasanjo directly ordered the massacre. Don't forget the police officers have love ones too and they are missed.
This is very sad...
I've heard this story about Obasanjo ordering the invasion of a whole town in Nigeria. It's really a wrong approach to dealing with the issue. This can't happen in other countries that value their citizens
Hmmmmm

Yes it won't because in those countries they will not kill 12 uniform men

You must be a bastard...... How many villages were destroyed in the south west with the high crime rate there or in the North... Obasanjo did it in Odi, now Tinubu is doing same in okoama community....
Don't worry it will happen to your parents and siblings too
I wonder how the people of Nigeria managed to heal from some of the genocides
So sad that the innocent had to pay the price for the deeds of the evil and wicked outlaws created by a politician.
So unfortunate OBJ gave the order. he's wicked
He's not wicked. He's a demon 👿
Very sad... Very sad indeed.....
Why is the Nigerian army so big with generals from almost two regions that also dominate presidency of the country? In my view as an outsider, the Nigerian government and Olusegun Obasanjo should be sued at ICC to be held accountable for its atrocities in the Odi town, Bayelsa. A Nigerian friend from Benin City told me Obasanjo practiced wizardry. Should we say he was sacrificing the citizen of Odi? Imagine the commander-in-chief of the armed forces of the Republic of Nigeria unleashing well armed soldiers to destroy a little town instead of letting the police arrest and prosecute criminals! If that is not terroristic witchcraft , what is it?
It's saad that people are always judging situations with emotions, more reason why majority cannot lead a complex institution as a government
The question now is that has the Nigeria delta people leant from the event of massacre?
Good job 👍👍👍👍
Don't blame Obasanjo for his action, blame the then governor of the state. The then governor wrote to the president to intervene because the security situation in his state is beyond his control
So to intervene is to kill a whole community ? What type of excuse is this
The blame goes to the president that didn’t use wisdom in his intervention. Innocent people were killed, that’s totally wrong. The Nigerian military should be ashamed but if given the order they would do it over again and that’s the truth
Obasanjo a Yoruba man did in 1999 and in 2024 a Yoruba Tinubu have killed delta people again, it shows that Yoruba are after oil in Nigeria to build their Lagos
Where did you put your brain kid 😏😏😏
Please help me ask him/her please so dumb@@MajeedMakanjuola-km2nx
Stop reasoning from your anus please
Obasanjo should at least be prosecuted
Very sad
Lazy army they can’t end boko boys but showing power against defenseless people 😢
How could a sitting president of a country order his army to massacre his own people with such impunity. It can only happen in Nigeria. No wonder the Nigerian army is ranked as one of the indiscipline entity in Africa. From robbing the same people they are meant to protect to........Obasango could have stayed and rot in prison if Nigeria could have a been a country country with law and order.there was a country call Nigeria.

@@Raynstormbeatz is like you don't understand the Palestine and Israel conflict. What will be reaction when your land is being seized from you on hour basis for over 75 years,your people are being massacre under brutal foreign regime, all forms of human rights is being violated, you can't even have access to basic human necessities and whole lots of inhumane treatment? I don't think you will sit down and fold your arms.
You can't say Palestinians are currently suffering because they have harboured hamas instead of reporting it to Israel.Israel my foot.my own land?
@@incomingvirus5569 No one brought land to earth we are all occupants, that’s no 1 , no 2 , in the ancient times So many lands were conquered through war , why are they not Fighting to reclaim till date , where ever you find your self make that place your home ! This is 21st century you can’t just wake up and kill# people and not expect them to return that same energy, if you follow up the conflict since you will understand, after the previous conflicts stopped isreal was supporting them , gave them supplies, light , water you can mention , then you just wake up one day and use your terrorist group to bomb innocent people chilling, what do you expect in return ? you can’t make peace to war or violence, it’s through dialogue understand the strength of your Opponent and get over what is in your head !

Thanks 🙏
Obasanjo should be in jail forever! Obasanjo has no single integrity to further interfere in Nigeria politics. Even administration he condemned were better than him. With this act alone, he is the worse leader in the history of Nigeria.
A soldier dont forgive and forget that Obasanja as a Soldier
Another story of Obsanjo administering genocide.
Bayelsa is the 27th largest state in Nigeria interns of landmass, but has the smallest number of local government area
And a few days ago 16 soldiers were killed with some beheaded and dismembered in Delta state. The bad blood between the Nigerian army and indigenous people have long be sown because of the army’s reckless acts like this.

Most national mayhem and problems in Nigeria, were brought up by the incumbent political leaders; imagine, a state governor training thugs, buying ammunitions for them. Is this kind of ugly thing still not happening in the country till date? May God help Nigeria.
Make a documentary about Bokoharam
That is mans inhumanity against man they is God oo.
It's time for them to join thier brothers,the biafrans because they will be safe forever and can also have justice.
Just heard about from my mom. How dare he? To wipe out a whole place because of what just a few people did. Where I’m from unbelievable. And he still stayed in office!!! He better have repented because Judgment day is coming.
That's why the country is struggling, the blood of the innocents wasted ruthlessly is crying for revenge. People talk about Rwanda with shudder but the real data and statistics of annihilations and genocides supervised by the Nigerian state and it's criminal counterparts will INSTILL the fear of God in any person of goodwill.
Barbarism, that's the prisident laid down by the unprofessional shortsighted OBJ. What are soldiers doing, scattered all around civilian habitat, in a civilian regime, it's quite out of ethics n a failed priority.
Bayelsa is bigger than lagos by landmass. Do your research.
His brother tinubu is following his foot steps by destroying okwu oma community,that's the hatered of yorubas to Eastern part of the said country called Nigeria,God Almighty will judge them thanks
Big Shame on you Nigerian Military,shame on you late Obassanjo, president, How dum, of decision, better means Could have used to fish out this group of thugs, gang members, Rather than this Evil Act, what a Shame. Africa, Africa, my what a Shame no Human Compassion here, I wonder if God knows this Country Called Nigeria. My my.
Why not blame the Gov who created the group?
@@omobulejoolusegun1504whose place is it ?
The president must be tried am sure he is still alive this is in human he as no right 😢😢😢😢
OBJ MUST BE BROUGHT TO BOOK, IS A WICKED SOUL
Hummmm
Sorry sir, this is quite deferent, that is war between deferent countries n sub interest.
😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
The number of police killed were more than 200 not 12 as claimed. Besides, you forgot those police men have wives, children and parents too...learn to balance your prejudice tales atimes.😮
BIH has in nowhere supported the killings. Also, 200 policemen killed is not reported or documented anywhere, so we can't carry that here. We go the extra mile and cross several layers to fact check our stories before we carry them here.
They were ambushed by militants not Innocent villagers
Nigeria security I don't even understand how they are oriented.. They seem to have more power to harmless citizens than going after the real terrorist
What did Odi did against the federal government of Nigeria? Stop misleading unsuspecting ignorant people!
I doubt if you've watched the video yet. Try and watch it till the end, broh. BIH does not mislead. BIH reports VERIFIABLE facts in its unique style. Watching before attacking is good sir.
I think the one misleading himself is you
