Nigeria To Appeal ICJ Ruling On Bakassi by semid4lyfe(m): 2:03am On Oct 05, 2012 |
THERE were indications on Thursday that the Federal Government was set to ask for a review of the judgment of the International Court of Justice which ceded the oil rich Bakassi Peninsula to neighbouring Cameroon. http://www.punchng.com/news/fg-in-bakassi-u-turn-%E2%80%A2-jonathan-directs-adoke-to-appeal-icj-ruling-%E2%80%A2-nigeria-to-base-legal-battle-on-fresh-facts/ |

As a pseudo-PanAfricanist, this is bad idea... However, as a proud Nigerian, I'm very happy... We also need to militarise the place while we're at it, we can't let smaller countries bully us... I don't really like Paul Biya(freaking utterly corrupt dictator) - an invasion and regime change in that part of Africa won't be a bad idea... Imperial Nigeria - let's get it!! 1 Like |

Hope they submit their formal application for review of the judgement before the 9th of October which is just 5 days AWAY! |

CyberG: Hope they submit their formal application for review of the judgement before the 9th of October which is just 5 days AWAY! They should be able to do that, if they're dead serious about it... However, it's Nigeria, where people at the 'ivory tower' talk the talk, but can't walk the walk...So, anything is possible - the end will justify the means... 1 Like |

shymexx: As a pseudo-PanAfricanist, this is bad idea... However, as a proud Nigerian, I'm very happy... Well, we have to hope that this government can come up with a strategy that will strengthen our chances which has been weakened by the actions of previous governments and this GEJ's recent statement that he will not ask for a review of the case. One of such strategies is finding ways to keep the Bakassi people engaged, piling up pressure and making it clear that Nigeria is committed to the re-integration of Bakassi into Nigeria and will accept no other options because the people will NOT. That way, even if it goes down to a referendum, the Bakassi in addition to their zeal would have seen strong commitments and good will of the Nigerian administration to completely vote themselves back into Nigeria which is WILLING to accept them with both hands and feet, in fact completely! |

A good step by Mr. President but while wait till this last minute before taking this turn. However, I salute the uncommon courage of Mr. President in taking up the Bakassi Appeal to the Hagues and I'm very confident that Nigeria would reclaim Bakassi. I rejoice with the Bakassi people and the good people of Cross River State. |

CyberG: I concur 100%.. I reckon referendum will be the end game... And that would be easy for Nigeria, since the people from the place prefer being part of Nigeria, to Cameroun... I just hope they settle it amicably, without bloodshed... |

Re: Nigeria To Appeal ICJ Ruling On Bakassi by Nobody: 2:28am On Oct 05, 2012 |
onila: I don't support this The oil(and fish-rich water) is the prize!! And probably a naval base for Nigeria in Bakassi to monitor Equatorial Guinea and Sao Tome & Principe - those tiny countries are too rich to be ignored... We need to share some of their oil wealth lol... |

Re: Nigeria To Appeal ICJ Ruling On Bakassi by Nobody: 4:52am On Oct 05, 2012 |
Cameroun needs to stay off Bakassi, OBJ unilaterally, without the consent of the NASS gave out Bakassi. He will not be forgiven if we dont get Bakassi back. Cameroun Stay off our Bakassi. We need it for National Security. |

Good move I'll say, but as someone rightly said, why do they need to wait until few days left before they could appeal ? |
Re: Nigeria To Appeal ICJ Ruling On Bakassi by Ironi: 6:02am On Oct 05, 2012 |
Some dumb Nigerians have already started talking about invasion and militarilization of Bakasi.You people think big population translates into military prowess. Where do you get those funny ideas from? Don't make Cameroun clean the floor with your face. |
Re: Nigeria To Appeal ICJ Ruling On Bakassi by Nobody: 6:07am On Oct 05, 2012 |
I bet it with you people that before that deadline date, they will come and tell us that they need financial allocation and some review committee to really know what went wrong before they appeal the judgement. even if they still lose the land, they should have appealed immediately. if it is the election they lose now, even before they announce the winner, they would be the first person in court to appeal the following day in tribunal. come o, were they sleeping before? my leaders are so slow to act on something important and justifiable but quick to act on something that they will benefit them financially.

A huge step in the right direction. I always thought Nigeria didn't press hard enough to have the Peninsula in the first place. Nigeria gave the Peninsula up far too easily! Now is the time to right the wrong! REFERENDUM PLEASE!!! |
Re: Nigeria To Appeal ICJ Ruling On Bakassi by erinolu(m): 6:19am On Oct 05, 2012 |
OBJ should be tried for ceding part of the country without formal ratification from the NASS. What he did was criminal and against the Sovereign constitution of Nigeria. How i wish Gani was still alive... kai !!! walahi |
