Exodus Following incessant attacks that began in March 2004, the villages were deserted for nearly four years. According to local, state and federal government of Nigeria's report, the attacks were politically motivated. Former President Olusengun Obasanjo intervened, but later gave up under political pressure from the local governors. The people therefore went on forced exile and settled in nearby villages ever since. It was not until July 19, 2007 when Goodluck Diigbo, arrived from the United States of America, where he had been in exile and was able to make peace that the people were able to return to their nativeland. All houses had been destroyed. Goodluck Diigbo, a surviving leader of the Ogoni people of Nigeria was the former aide and confidant of the slain Ken Saro-Wiwa. The famous African writer and rights crusader who had founded and led the Movement for Survival of Ogoni People, MOSOP. Goodluck Diigbo worked closely with political leaders, security forces, natives and warring factions.Bua Teyork, formerly called Bua Teyor and Teyor Kaani is situated east of Bori, the cultural and politcal capital of Ogoniland.
