prologue: Bauchi should develop their solid minerals. Theirs is even better when compared to the comedy Nasarawa has to offer (which has no business been called a state in the first place). So far, with the resources they have, there are good roads, fairly stable electricity and other infrastructures. They should improve on what Gombe is doing. From gypsum industry alone at the Alkaleri LGA, a viable industry that supports the cement companies. Same with Lead, zinc, manganese, tin, columbite and some radioactive minerals. Bauchi is better than some SS, SE and Sw states though Yuguda is been modest.
For this, I doff my hat for Osun state, upon my recent visit.
Bauchi can take a cue.

you have spoken well but bauchi is not better than any Sw state. Even ekiti that does not have industry have tertiary institution to cover up for them.

stebell: For once, I've seen a Northern Gov admit dat without "Oyel" his state will crumble.

But Issa don't worry de "oyel" will not finish. We will continue to see dat yu peeps up North survives no mata wat.

Late Yaradua(may his soul RIP) knew dis wen pipelines down South started goin up in flames. Production dropped and most of de 'Foreigners' started leaving Naija.
Apart frm dat, allocations to Northern states were very low and all their investments especially those owned by Northerners were crumbling.
He hurriedly offered Amnesty.

To an extent it solved de problem a little

The yield point or brealing point will be wen the Northerners/fulanis push the ND peeps too much to de wall, then enough will be enough and de "oyel" will stop flowing.

Long live South South
Long live Niger Delta Republic
Long live de Ijaw Republic.

EWU Niger Delta, Oil will finish one day if you are such an ignoramus, and when it finishes you fishermen will go back to fishing while Northerners will be mining their reserved solid minerals, think think think ODE

wirinet: Governor Yuguda is just being truthful unlike all others who lives in a perpetual state of self denial. Only Lagos State can survive without oil and that is even debatable as Lagos would find it difficult without free oil money from Abuja. Even with oil money Lagos is highly indebted.

Even the igbo states would crumble without handouts from Abuja. What is the internal generated revenue of all the SE states. I dare the governors to release their IGR figures like Yuguda, it would be shameful.

The SW is not much better. Nigeria as a whole is build around free oil money explored and exported by foreigners.

Nigeria as a whole would crumble the day oil dries out.

Oboy did you go to school at all, so Abia, IMO and Anambra do not have oil or are they not part of Niger Delta..... anyway enterprising Igbos dont really need oil to survive

Bauchi can survive and be great without oil but with dedicated leaders.

Unam fulani or wherever yu come frm. It will neva finish.
Stop hating
More and more wells are being discover onshore alone not to even talk of gas reserves.
Yu hv solid minerals indeed. Why are yu not mining then. Yu want to tell me dat yu kno more than ur gov. Issa abi
Continue living in fools paradise unam
And don't forget to fast for de "oyel" to finish "Aturu"

you talk like an average ladipo spare part seller. How much oil is imo, anambra and anambra contributing to nigeria's total? Did you even pass elementary geography? Look up the meaning of delta and show me any map that includes any igbo state as part of the Niger-Delta.

As "enterprising" as you said igbos are, can you list the IGRs of all the igbo states, and then tell me if the amount alone can sustain the igbo states.

IGBO-SON:


^^^Not too sure about the bolded though; coffin making business could be a roaring success.....esp' in the Bornu/Yobe axis!

Mallams don't bury their dead in coffins just plain white cloth in the belly of mother earth.

Haba!

deor03: I wonder, why politicians lament for nothing. No right thinking man will live in the North right now or for some years to come.

People are being slaughtered everyday , just because someone does not like the God you worship. This has been on unchecked for decades

Industry that chooses to open there will not get workers, so why Open there in the first place.

Sharrap ya mouth, Wetin ya sabi!

Isa yuguda! What an idiot, see how DUMB! You are, I pity my people.
Bauchi state generating only 250million and u r still the governor! Allah ya sawwake!!
I no blame the FOOL, we northerners have not been able to understand what true leadership qualities are.
This governor dey irritate me!!!
