lacasa: There is nothing selective about the presentations by Senator Enang and the geologist in Toyin Akinosho. Senator Enang had scholarly enumerated that more than 83% of Nigerian crude oil blocks are owned by northerners. The ebullient senator went further to state that the owners included but not limited to characters such as Danjuma, Bayero, Atiku, Dantata and Shagari. In the other hand, the so-called geologist who is not even a petroleum engineer was busy vomiting uneducated number of barrel an unstuck well can produce in a day. If the hack writer was an average authority in Nigerian Oil and Gas sector as people would want us to believe, he would have informed us about the number of OML owned by the characters from northern Nigeria as opposed to southern Nigeria. I do not have to be an expert on Oil and Gas industry to reel out educated estimate of barrels of crude oil produced by Nigeria in a day. The geologist’s article without iota of statistics to prove the senator wrong is a waste of time at best. 1 Like |

haka_nai: Don't sweat it !!! Its always about hate for the North.Anything will fly if it makes the North look bad.The senator who made the allegations should be ashamed of himself.Extracting information without verifying its authenticity. I just wonder why for The south southern & thier south earth uncle's labour so much hatred for notherners meanwhile mor than 65% pof thier total population leave in the north making a living . I will rather eat sleep & rest in a hausa Fulani home than risk my life in an Igbo mans seriously speaking |

*556#:What has this thread got to do with a dead Ojukwu and who he canvassed for support? Who give a fu@ck who Ojukwu supported? (apologies for my Language, am......) Who did you and your people canvassed and voted for in 2011? This thread is about oil block, nothing to do with Igbo, Yoruba or anyone else. Some like you don't like intellectual exchange of views, unless tribal name calling comes into it and once that is done, then they comes to life. And minus tribal argument, they got nothing upstairs to offer. If you got nothing meaningful or insightful to say, why not go to the hip hop section, where you will be much more useful. This is for people that at least know how to cross the road. |

pluto04:You are right, the way justice works is that the senator has made an allegation with names mentioned and a document he claimed to support his argument, its then the turn of those that disapprove of his allegation to present a counter argument, names and document to prove he was wrong and gain I am not saying that he was right and I want to hear from the other side, unfortunately this article do not do that but talking entirely different thing (1ins/working of oil industry in Nigeria) |
Re: Northerners Are Not Controlling Nigeria's Oil Blocks by Eziachi: 6:47pm On Mar 09, 2013 |
Demdem: I mentioned El Rufai, because you in particular agrees with every allegation he mades about Jonathan and his govt. Are you believing whim simply because of your dislike for Jonathan or because you knew for a fact that Rufai is right or making sense? The reason you didn't believe this senator, is it because you think he is connected to this government, therefore he has to be wrong? You should know that I am not a fan of any of this politicians no matter where they come from, but I do alway insist that people like Rufai or Ezekwesili should be proven wrong with a counter superior argument from GEJ fan club instead of shouting them down or calling them liars , that is exactly what I am doing in this case. If everything relating to GEJ has to be wrong to you and anything against him is right, your argument on issues can't be credible then because is bias, especially when I knew agree with you over many issues because it makes sense to me. I like people who say things the way they see is, not people that say things based on pre determined angle. |

What kind of people are people like El Rufai and Ezekwesili? I believe anyone making a claim has to substantiate it convincingly. That is THEIR responsibility.Yes they should NOT be shouted down but given space to air their views. But that does not absolve them of the duty of proof. |

Those whose wells are idle should have their licences revoked and a more transparent means set-up for equi-distribution. Still fancy the Venezuela' model, refine the oil for the citizen and invest in other sector for export then this sectorianism will STOP |

Eziachi: Shut it! Like seriously you Igbos think you are smart? are you suffering from selective amnesia not to see what your useless brothers are writing on this thread? what has this thread has to do with all the nonsense you greedy bastards wrote on this thread? someone made his personal analysis about what he thinks about the true situation of oil blocks distribution and before anything, your foolish greedy people have started accusing a whole ethnic group and calling us names. Just click on the first page and see what these foolish were busy writing. and yes, my post is a reply to you foolish ones and got everything to with the thread. you want us to play by the rule after writing stupid things and lies about us. Who brought up alliance of SS, SE and NC to make the SW look bad? was is it not you greedy bastards that started writing and insulating US? How can what the OP wrote affect me to warrant you bastards grouping the whole group and calling us names? what is my business with who owns oil block or not that made you greedy bastards to start abusing us? You greedy bastards can't deceive anyone again, Ironsi, Ojukwu and Zik tried it in the past and failed. You wanted to make us look bad, as usual hoping that will make the south south fall into your trap by taking you as friends, when in reality you never liked them as evidently portrayed by Ojukwu calling all Igbos to vote for IBB? No one is going to seat down and allow you greedy bastards repeat 1947, where you made us the scapegoat and aligned with the northerners, only to start begging for our assistance when the northerners outplayed you in your treachery. |

all4naija: You are the person insinuating that. My statement is clear that if it were to be so it's rightfully theirs as to entitlement. It is clear you lacked comprehension and quick to conclude on a shallow mindedness. u arent putting ur brain to work no doubt. I said nothing contrary. the bottom line is its foolish for those presenting controlling the resources to be complaining. For what again? |
Re: Northerners Are Not Controlling Nigeria's Oil Blocks by Nobody: 5:04pm On Mar 10, 2013 |
Demdem:First and foremost, that was a rhetorical question. How are they controlling them when they are not receiving anything? You keep begging the question by putting it on edge just to rub innocent people with another man's crime. Aren't Ken Sarowiwa case and the militant fighting evidences to that? What is your claim now when that is not actual the reality on ground? |

Re: Northerners Are Not Controlling Nigeria's Oil Blocks by Nobody: 5:39pm On Mar 10, 2013 |
^^^ I can't leave Sarowiwa case out of the issue. It is an indication though. Those who have gave out most of the oil wells like IBB and Abacha have not been questioned. Those oil wells are still in the hands of those people. I don't know how the Niger-Delta people are in charge of the oil well as your claimed here. If you mean the person in power(the president) is from that region,that is correct and is a different thing entirely. He is not controlling those oil wells as well not giving them back to the people. What he did is to make the resource allocation is just a little better, that is what I can see in all of these. It is clear the Northerners are still controlling these oil wells. I would be very glad if GEJ can take back these oil wells from these illegal owners and turn them into state properties, as you refused to accept the obvious. |

Re: Northerners Are Not Controlling Nigeria's Oil Blocks by Nobody: 6:07pm On Mar 10, 2013 |
^^^^ Your way of quoting is difficult to read. Well, it is clear Northerners are still in possession of those oil wells! |
Re: Northerners Are Not Controlling Nigeria's Oil Blocks by Demdem(m): 6:17pm On Mar 10, 2013 |
all4naija: ^^^^ My comments are boldened, urs arent. That was a flimsy excuse yes, northerners control some wells while southerners also control some. Above all, the south is in charge. that is what is clear here. |
Re: Northerners Are Not Controlling Nigeria's Oil Blocks by Nobody: 6:25pm On Mar 10, 2013 |
Demdem:No! I mean difficult to read and quoting you back. Why must Northerners control Southerners recourses at all? |
Re: Northerners Are Not Controlling Nigeria's Oil Blocks by Demdem(m): 7:19pm On Mar 10, 2013 |

Re: Northerners Are Not Controlling Nigeria's Oil Blocks by Nobody: 1:35am On Mar 12, 2013 |
^^^ It would be easier for me to use a Tilda for indication. It is right time the laws must be amended! As the resources are not benefiting the communities at the hands of the Northerners. |
Re: Northerners Are Not Controlling Nigeria's Oil Blocks by Demdem(m): 5:26am On Mar 12, 2013 |
all4naija: ^^^ While waiting for the laws to be ammended, the ND still receives much more allocation from different sources unlike other regions, how well has the communities benefited? Am asking this not because I don't want the law to be rewritten and not ammended but just to prove to u that there are even bigger challenges than the law itself. |
Re: Northerners Are Not Controlling Nigeria's Oil Blocks by cfours: 5:32am On Mar 12, 2013 |
I think the myth that "northerners control Nigeria" needs to be thoroughly dispelled as I doubt the credibility of it. In fact, I think northern population are some of the most marginalized in the entire country. something needs to be done esp for the infrastructure and overall development up there. all these boko haram, fringe movements are symptoms of extreme poverty. we like to point fingers at the north because they have very little presence among us. therefore they aren't there to defend themselves or attack their detractors. |
