President Goodluck Jonathan on Monday met with David Cameron, British Prime Minister and pleaded his country’s assistance to stem the big oil theft in Nigeria’s Niger Delta.

Jonathan reportedly told Cameron, who now chairs G8 that stolen oil from the Nigeria is shipped abroad where it is refined and sold in the international market.

He described the crime as “blood oil”.

Oil theft, known in Nigeria as illegal bunkering accounts for more than 10 per cent of Nigeria’s daily oil production of 2.2 million barrels.

The president who called for sanctions for all those involved in the illegal trade, said that the G8 has a role to play in putting an end to the crime, challenging the group of industrialised nations to take a stand similar to the one taken on money laundering by public office holders

Jonathan also called on the G-8 to look into the issue of proliferation of small arms and light weapons in Africa, and long term peace keeping support for Mali, a theme that he took across the Channels to Paris, where he later held talks with President Francois Hollande.

According to him, there is need to sustain stability in Mali after the military intervention, otherwise, the rebels may adopt a guerrillas approach of killings and suicide bombings, thus continuing their terrorist activities by other means.http://primegossips.com/?p=3529

While noting the cordial relations between Nigeria and the UK, the President expressed commitment to promoting trade and investment between both countries.

“We have a robust relationship in terms of trade, because trade between African nations are more difficult than trade with other countries. Without robust trading the economy cannot develop because whatever you do either primary production or industrial, you need trade facilitation,” Jonathan said.

Responding, Cameron, said both nations had a close relationship based on successful trade and investment which would double in the coming years.

Cameron also said that the two countries would continue to build on their strong diplomatic and political relations as well as aid and development partnership.

Do you think they would listen to the bolded. It is their stock and trade. Criminals!! CHUKWU would visit all of them.

So after all these noise on how G8 powers will scold GEJ for extravagancy, wasteful spending and corruption.

The table just turned and they will defending themselves having encouraged or bought stolen oil and also sell arms to Africa to destabilize the continent.

In this political and diplomatic battle, who say GEJ no be Cat wey him back no dey touch ground.

I learnt that Cameron real name is Kamoru, that he changed it some years after he left Naija

GEJ remains the Most Professional and Indeed the Most Dangerous politician Nigeria will ever have. The hunter is now the hunter . *An intelligent attack on CameRuN and the West. GEJ can't just carry last. So sweet indeed! Ok cameron, defend urself n G8

which one is blood oil again?
He and his Aso rock cabal are also eating blood food.
Who fault is it if a country cannot protect her territorial mineral resources from bunkers and illegal minners(tani o ma ri ese were ti ko ni bu?). Talking as if Nigeria won't also hop at the opportunity if it comes her way.
Instead of blaming them, why can't he find a logical way to curb the bunkery. Nonsense.

Even the man he talked to is making 'commitments' and you are here making excuses on their behalf. What on earth will make a man take a stand on an issue with another country against his own country?

No be only Blood Money, Na Blood Diamond! The British are free to go unless Nigeria FG dont spend Blood Money themselves...

Frank-C:

Even the man he talked to is making 'commitments'

My frnd Shut it, will you. There is a Demand side and a Supply side to every issue, and one wud hv to tackle an issue from both sides if there is any hope the issue can be effectively tackled substainably... The President is already dealing with d Supply side here at home by using d Navy and JTF to curb activities of vandals, and results from virtuali all sources indicate clearly dat Oil theft is significantly decreasing as Oil Production increases. Hundreds of illegal 'Oil Refineries', barges and tanks hv bn destroyd, and sm of the thieves arrestd. Howeva, d the theft wud continue and wud neva be completely eliminatd as long as d Demand side (Foreign Refineries that buy these Stolen Oil) is also tackled along with whateva is going on at home. That is how a Problem is solvd any where in d world, and dat is what GEJ is advocating: a two-plunge approach. Get Sense abeg...

gibberish as usual!

Dear GEJ, are you aware that by pandering to the wishes of these ex-militants and paying them big sums, not only have you denied the families of the folks they killed justice, you're spitting in their faces by rewarding the killers and leaving the bereaved families to suffer.

You're buying blood peace!
