Reference: No. What should cause sensible agitation is what Asari dokubo did and is still doing: making billions in the name of the Niger delta struggle and using it to go create jobs in a foreign country. Even if he had sited his investment in Lagos like LADOL, ND youths would have been employed but he obviously doesn't think so much of his kith and kin, why then do you blame a stranger for neglecting your region when you can't caution your own son? If gej was remotely interested in breaking a vicious cycle, he would have encouraged this project to be relocated to bayelsa since 5 years ago. If he was interested in breaking the vicious cycle, he would have mandated Asari, Tompolo, Boyloaf etc to utilise the billions he's giving them to do something similar in the ND, not using executive fiat to push a private investor into debt in a bid to soften the hostile reception he deserves from his people for sleeping for 5 years on the seat of authority. Or you think its beans to relocate such a gigantic project? Who will bear the cost? But of course he's simply the ND version of the Kaduna mafia we all accuse of selfish born to rule mentality 5 Likes 1 Share |

Chukwugekwu: gej was right to sleep on the throne for 5 years then try to form voltron with another man's sweat in 3 weeks?? No my friend. He isn't right and I'm glad the courts told him so. No one is intimidating the ND.....let them agitate for such to be replicated in the ND by the ND sons who have made billions from gej patronage |

theV0ice: I just can't phantom it. Why can't they just face Dokubo, Tompolo, Boyloaf and other militants and ask them what they are doing with the funds being paid Is it not a sheer molestation of the people of ND, with the siting of Dokubo's investment in another country, despite all his noise about fighting for ND. Hypocrisy. They now expect others to invest in their land, when their own sons are not even investing there. 4 Likes |

onatisi: God bless you for your candour and honesty. No sensible person will wish the ND not to get all they can from the oil in their backyard but how do you explain a situation where an ND son who claims he didn't have shoes got promoted to the highest office in the land by acts of fate only to get there and get preoccupied solely with working towards getting a 2nd term? If he had spent the resources, goodwill and energy he expended on his 2nd term bid on developing the ND, the ND would have been Dubai now. Gej was simply interested in feathering his own nest. Those who regard him a hero should go ask him for the goodies he brought back from his 5 year adventure. 4 Likes |

superstar1: "NigerDelta" is not a political region, rather, it is an economic region composed of adjacent oil producing states surrounding the actual NigerDelta which is a topological/Geographical description. The Geographical NigerDelta is made up of only Delta, Bayelsa, and Rivers. The Economic NigerDelta is made up of 9 states cutting across SS (all the 6 states, but CrossRiver now stands as a passive member since its claims to oil has been ceded to Akwa-Ibom), SE (Imo and Abia), and SW (Ondo). The debate here refers to the Economic NigerDelta of 9states, not the Geographical or the Political (better known as SouthSouth). 3 Likes |

Our lands are bn destroy as a result of d oil exploration, we should b able to enjoy d benefits of d oil through jobs creation and other means, some of d things we are suppose to benefit from are not even located in d niger delta so it makes it difficult to benefit from them, yes our leaders are not performing but we shouldn't use dat as a weapon of ignorance by relegating ourselves behind every region in nigeria, Believe it or not our resources is d only thing keeping this country together.

Having read all pages, I believe it is the person who wears the shoe that knows where it pinches. It is easy to overlook the valid struggles of the NigerDelta, especially since the militants managed to exhaust the goodwill they initially enjoyed, seeing that they all later turned out to be fighting for their bellies and using their spoils of war to establish fiefdoms within the NigerDelta. However, It only makes sense that investment be forcefully attracted (from its origin) to the region. I see no reason why cargoes that are related to oil and gas shouldn't be shipped straight to the NigerDelta. I know for a fact that the Onne port is already handling such cargoes. The people of the NigerDelta should also tone down the militancy, so as to create an enabling environment for investments to thrive. As it is now, even a NigerDelta man does not feel safe working in the NigerDelta. Militancy is not the way to achieve development, political diplomacy would see more achieved and would conquer any planned opposition. Militancy will never achieve this. I hope the incoming government will show more responsibility towards the ND and derivation should be increased to as much as 20%. It is expected that a Buhari regime would exhibit zero tolerance for corruption, thereby forcing the state and local governments to execute their budgets with accountability. Concerning the LADOL project, I believe the investor is at no ones mercy. As such if frustrated, I will advise they even move their project to Angola and continue the business of making profit. Let the IYC conjure with aggression another investor to do its bidding. The never ending debate over the location of a refinery in Kaduna is one I argued against in my younger years. However, I have come to realise the refinery was duly sited considering the end user in the North and the possibility of exporting refined products to neighbouring West African states that are land-locked. It wouldn't make any economic or HSE sense having multiple pipelines dedicated to individual crude oil derivatives traversing the South to the North. The NigerDelta has 3 refineries to cater for the South and possible exportation by sea to any global customer. At the end of the day, it is the end user who pays for any of the crude-oil derivatives that truly holds the ace. Next is the refinery investor, who can chose to buy crude-oil from wherever he pleases. Dangote siting his Refinery in Lagos and close to sea definitely has his eyes on the larger world market. It is the NigerDelta/Nigeria that should be begging him to buy Nigerian crude-oil, just as we should be looking for another customer to take Americas slot as our preferred crude-oil buyer. Dangote cannot be threatened where raw material abound all over Africa, begging for a buyer. 3 Likes |

nonaira:well Adaka Boro saw thought this would happen. He decided to fight by proclaiming a new republic but about 12 days after. The born to rule over came him and he became their mule. Ojukwu saw this coming, for about 3years blood was flowing all over Biafran land (including lower niger). The zoo keepers with norn to rule mentality blackmailed Adaka Boro into working against Ojukwu. After 3years Biafra lost the battle for freedom. Today over 40years after the end of the battle which “we“ believe that Biafra lost. Here we are still talking about the same thing. The yorubas said they are the friends of the Niger Deltans we all are seeing the strenght of their friendship with the Niger Deltans. Well am watching to see how this new war will end. God Bless BIAFRA, GOD BLESS LOWER NIGER REPUBLIC... Ojukwu may GOD rest your soul. 1 Like |
