Oil Pipeline Explosions: Are Multinational Oil Firms Behind The Sabotage? by worksmart(m): 2:05am On May 07, 2016
Who is going to benefit from these pipeline explosions?

Answer: the same Western multinational companies that are allowing the explosions to happen.

Reach you own conclusions.

Are we not holding these oil firms responsible for securing their assets?

I strongly suspect that these oil firms are involved in these explosions and conveniently hiding behind fake stories of "new militants groups "
How coincidental that these militants suddenly are springing up just when we have a serious government that has started to clean up the corrupt oil sector.

It is well, what doesn't kill us makes us stronger.

Prepare for another few weeks of worsening fuel scarcity and lack of electricity.
So who benefits from pipeline explosions?

Is it the so called (probably non-existent)"militants" ?

Is it the Nigerian Public?

Is the Oil firms who get to contracts to rebuild and profit from a non-functioning and corrupt oil sector?

You may not be far from the truth pal. There is a strong connection from the Western World regarding these bombings and it is for real.

OP what you are suggesting is like a farmer killing his own crops just to create a scarcity. I seriously doubt that, multinationals make more profits while in full operation. For each day no work billions are lost

Multinationals do/sponsor illegal oil bunkering #fact

Multinationals and pipeline vandalization? No, I don't think so.

Pipeline vandalism is sponsored by refined petroleum products importers, alternative power equipment importers, local chiefs and 'warlords'.

Those are your prime beneficiaries -- I pity those poor misguided souls who are being used blind, and would lose their lives for a false cause and peanuts.

Since when did it become the job of the oil companies to provide security for the pipelines!! Buhari has failed and nothing else.No one should even begin to attempt a window dressing.

Why not talk about the cause of the problem first.
Solve the problem and there will be no bombing of facilities.

Yoruba...you will know them; they are more concerned about ND oil than even Niger Delta people! Go and read every thread about Niger Delta oil; you see them warning militants on how Buhari will deal with them. Lol! Yorubas...why are you still concerned about ND oil when Lagos and Ondo now have oil as you claimed? Master of propaganda; you claim to have oil yet you are salivating at someone else's oil. GIVE ME A BREAK!

Sorry you do not appear to have comprehended this thread.
It has nothing to do with tribe ; It is about the economic sabotage of the country.

When the fuel scarcity starts no tribe is immune from the resulting hardship and inconvenience.

Read my post again.
The so called militant group that has just sprung up is probably non-existent and likely just a convenient cover the multinationals to carry out this economic sabotage.

That is why there is a question mark in the title of this thread.
Corrupt members of NASS may likely be in collusion.

Why does NASS never seem to ever summon this multinational to ask what they are actually doing to protect these assets?

Also coincidental somewhat that timing coincided with NASS going for 1 week break.

I use the term pipelines loosely, the oil platforms and parts of pipelines being used by Chevron for instance should be responsibility of Chevron to secure. After all if those assets do not belong to them then how could be referred to as Chevron oil platform?

So do you consider it stupidity to ask questions.
Nobody said militants do not exist.

Question is do there exist genuine militant or a group of hired thugs colluding with the multinationals?

Get contracts to rebuild destroyed facilities is very profitable for the multinationals. Besides the sabotage of a government that is starving them of additional side streams of income from corruption may also be their motivation.

The yorubas ar concerned abt niger delta because they ar able to harness d resource for their development while you guys ar too primitive to do so. That is why u cry dat Lagos is built wt oyel money while you av nothing to show for d same oyel in ur possession.
