I agree that our governors mismanagement is a greater problem than resource control, if they can't manage what they have now, so they would still do when there is resource control. My position is that both problems can be solved the same time.

Mogidi:


If Jonathan had done it he would have been seen as the president of the ND. The best time to agitate for resource control is now, it's our prerogative to start agitating for resources control when we feel like it. We don't need outsiders telling us when to start fighting for control of our resources, its our prerogative. Harness your useless views alone, this thread is not for your type.

barcanista:
I disagree with your line of argument. With Resource control all our attention will be on State officials. They have no excuse and the Governors won't control all the monies. of the 50%, 15% will go the the State Government, 15% to the Local Government, 15% to various communities and 5% as an intervention fund eg DESOPADEC of Delta State. This will ginger participation in societal building and whoever steal will be dealt with without recourse to Abuja. Remember, it will be a thing of we-we.

. . . . . . . .hell I am ready to joust with a kid today . . . . . . . . . .since it's an issue of 'we', 'your' and 'our' then, I advice you lot to head back to the creeks as a matter of nationalistic urgency . . . . . . . . . .since 'we', 'our' don't need a 'your' then I believe taking up arms will be the right thing to do, not so? I will harness my views about anything that affects the body Nigeria and not leave issues of nationalistic importance to charlatans like you and the op

You have a strong point.

Your modus operandi is dead on arrival, you have no business with the issues raised, you're only here to derail, am not going to reward your infantile quibbles with another reply. Bye

barcanista:
The call for Resource control is a patriotic one. I don't believe in any thing like "derivation". Let the people control their resources and pay 50% to the FG. The FG can set aside a percentage of this revenue as intervention fund for poorer states in the country and also to assist their own government. This will encourage healthy competition among the 36 Federating units and the FG controlled FCT. This present system promotes laziness and unnecessary hate among regions and states.

barcanista:
Bros, you see my last reply to you on PIB?

1999 General Abdulsalam Abubakar introduced the payment of 13% derivation to mineral resources producing states and inserted it into Nigeria 1999 Constitution.

Mogidi:


You were right in your analysis but I see lots of problem if the bill is not passed. I see them watering down some of the issues the bill was meant to tackle but not passing the bill sends a signal to us in the South South.
With the likes of Wike in Rivers all hope is not lost, Buhari won't want to be seen as president of the north.
They may have the majority in NASS but for God sake we have the resources, they can't disregard the region that lays the golden egg by not passing the bill even if its watered down version.

Mogidi:


A big thank you to General Abdulsalam Abubakar, it should have been 50%, your region enjoyed 100% in the past.

Were you expecting President Jonathan to develop only the ND because he comes from the ND, have you taken time to find out how governance works?

I normally don't reply id.iots but heck its Tuesday.

barcanista:
Why are you thanking him? Abdulsallam that sent Soldiers to kill Ijaw Youths in the Creek after the Kaiama declaration? he only acceded to the 13% because they need to douse tension. This is our undoing. Our people should have rejected and insisted on 50%

Jesusloveyou:
why i like to reply fool like u,if u know that d son of d region cannot develop ur region why are u clamouring for gej to continue his failure and crying of conspiracy,even this thread is a cry of failure of gej re-election.as i always say-we in south south should not clamour for presidency but for true federalism

Can you not find any im..becile to identify with your imbecility today? Go to a thread with issues that are discernible to you, am sorry but you lack the required skill-set to debate here.


This is my last reply to you, bye.

Truckpusher:
Exactly what I've been saying - The federal Government can make policies that would ensure that the wealth goes directly to the people and not creating some bogus outfit like NDDC just to settle some thieving elites.

Between, aren't your own elites thieving too?

Mogidi:


hahah
I was only being sarcastic in praise of his measly reward of 13% when his region enjoyed near 100% when they had any resources of value.

truefact:


Why are you afraid of standin on your own? Leave ND alone for godsake. You are the lazy one here.

. . . . . . .really? . . . . . . .between the one who toils the soil for produce, goes to the market to sell them and the one who sits at home drinking sheppe while beating his chest that there's a natural resource under his feet, who is lazy? . . . . . . . . .your response will go a long way in telling who you are!! . . . . . . . . . .there's a reason its called natural resource

Please I sincerely want to know what happened to the $100 billion that was made in Oil Revenue in 2012 Alone? Considering that the Government had to borrow more and deplete our reserves.


$100 billion = N16.8 trillion
