Southerners Erroneously Think The North Is Dependent On The South - Ben Bruce by edoyad(m): 6:15am On Mar 14, 2016
This is an excerpt from Senator Ben Murray Bruce's COMMON SENSE REVOLUTION , his e-book available for free on the internet. It's like a compendium of all his common sense articles, it is informative .

Many Southerners erroneously think the North is dependent on the South.
In actual fact, the reverse is the case!

Only the blind individual who is suffering from chronic paucity of knowledge would carry such a stupid notion about a group of people especially the Notherners. I don't know why Mr Ben didn't call a spade a spade and put it that some SSners and SEners should receive a proper education and stop the chronic hatred they have for the Northerners.
Majority of what's being said about Northerners are borne out of nothing but hatred for those people.

Why do you think Igbos carry their fake products to sell in the North if they don't depend on other Nigerians to be successful. Make dem go open shop in Zambia.

The social media senator himself.

However, I agree with him. The south believes because oil comes from the south and Nigeria depends on oil, the north is dependent on them.

Fact is, the average northerner does not even benefit from oil money, they mostly live off agriculture, business and menial jobs.

The so called southerners who claim to be feeding the nation have no input whatsoever to the economy other than the fact that the resources were naturally deposited in their region.

My people here in d South-South think that our so called "Oil" is being enjoyed alone by the people of d north. But they refused to understand that our people here particularly d politicians from our zone equally enjoys d rich oil wealth at d detriment of ordinary citizens just d way ordinary people in d north are suffering too. Who will that d likes of GEJ, Anaechi, Wike, Magnus Abe, Adams, Emmanuel Uduaghan, James Ibori Godswil Akpabio, serika Dickson etc not being or never enjoyed the oil wealth?

Ben Bruce makes me laugh with this postulation. Are the Notherners giving us this food for free? But the Northerers are taking the proceeds of oil for free in the name of 'one Nigeria'. The South does not depend on the north for anything, if there was no Northern Nigeria, us in the South would buy food from other countries like Cameroon,Benin Republic, Ghana etc and life would go on. But if there was no Southern Nigeria, only God knows what would have happend to the North by now.

Now whose argument should I support, that of Bruce, successful business man and senator who employs over a thousand people, or you, anonymous poster on NL?

Common nonsense, food is a commodity that can be purchased easily when you have economic wealth. What is food?

UK imports too, UAE imports food and even Russia. Economy is the koko, the northerners are parasites.

Are you saying that fuel is distributed free in the north while you buy food items from them? You are the one who is funny and doesn't make any sense.

help me ask am, if they refuse to give us food then we will have to make Cameroon and Benin republic farmers richer.

We buying the food self makes them richer, they barely sell there food to northerners like them

why do nigeria shiver when there is crash in oil prices? Are you being paid at the national assembly with groundnut or fura proceeds? You just make it look as if southerner don't farm. Even with the so called food produce in the north, the living condition there is unbearable. Early in the morning you would see children carrying bowl moving from house to house to beg for food. common sense is not actually common. where did Ben bruce leave his?

Rice , yam, cocoa, cocoyam, potatoes, tomatoes, poultry farm, maize, cashew, pineapple, cassava, palmoil, garri, groundnut, oranges, mangoes, sorghum, pepper, crayfish e.t.c are grown in the south...

Is it the beans and the onions that graduated to feeding the south?

Omo!!! this senator should not fall my hand, why bootlicking this northern asses just to get your books sold.
