Oil Blocs In Nigeria. Questions Unanswered by change49gerians: 2:16pm On Jun 19, 2016
How many oil blocs do we have in Nigeria? Where are all the blocs located? Who owns the oil blocs? How did they become owners of these blocs? For how long have they been owners of these blocs? These questions will pop in your head when you begin to wonder why some people have wealth that Forbes cannot quantify. Let us take away sentiments and judge right for a minute. If a well is dug in your compound and someone from the next neighbourhood claims to own the well and claims all dividends from the land, wouldn't you find that preposterous? How is this possible that oil blocs are shared to people living thousands of miles away and the indigenous people from whose lands the oil is explored are left to inhale the chemical substances and the effects of oil spills and pollution only. The kings in the Niger Delta communities do not have oil blocs, while civil servants or just a business man without a reputable record from elsewhere will be given oil blocs. Let our change be transparent to all Nigeians. We will like to know who owns each oil bloc and a record of the quantity of crude exploited from each bloc. Let our change be visible in all directions. We are here for Buhari, and it is ripe for things to begin to open up. Let the questions Nigerians are asking be answered. we are tired of reading filtered news on our dailies. Let us be transparent in a way that is visible to the mere eyes.

They wil never focus on responding to such questions at all! How can you allow a status qou to change when your life & the luxuries that follow depend on that!

My only problem with these militants is that they arent genuinely agitating for the right course...it can b seen from what happened before. They are given some cash, & then they keep quiet!!!

The real people agitating are not actually the militants. You will never hear the voices of the true agitators because they are not armed. Our system seems to need aggressiveness and violence to respond to calls. The people are not dummies, but hey have no say for themselves. Many times they have attempted to speak out, but they get shot at till they become mute. Ken Saro Wiwa was only an activist without arms, yet he was murdered in 1995. So tell me, what truly is the right course? The military is used to dish out violence and deaths to peaceful agitators because they are vulnerable. Our media will not report such stories because they are also beneficiaries. Put yourself in the positions of the militants for a minute. If you found yourself in penury and your livelihood is taken away from you what would be your next option in a government like ours? Take a visit to the Niger Delta and you will hardly find any standard place worth living in. Companies move their offices to Lagos and Abuja thereby making the Niger Delta a factory.The people given the cash are militants who create terror and not the masses. They are not the average man with a vision or hope for the future. They live to die the next minute.

Who is being deceived here? I refuse to read those thrash you filter for fools. That is why it took BBC to announce the death of Sani Abacha. No local media could do it. It takes foeign newspapes to report the massive rigging during elctions in Nigeria. For now, to get the truth about ongoings in Nigeria, one needs the BBC, Aljazeera or Saharareporters. Our newspaper are owned by top politicians and what would you expect to read? For those living in Nigeria, they get briefed by their relatives living abroad. What you know is what you are told and not what it is. You really need to be informed. The questions that we ask does not corroborate your newspaper report. Who owns the blocs? tell us the names. where are the blocs? tell us the locations. What quantity is explored from each bloc? we need to know. Even after your newspapers report we are still asking the same question. which makes your reports useless. how can you claim to be informed having read such crazy report? We are not fools, we know the answers we seek. Guess what, one explosion and the news says 4million barrels have exploded, from which bloc was the 4million barrels rigged? We need to know.
