Exploration activities in Benue state may be gradually yielding success as a quantity of crude oil has been discovered. It is however not yet known if the discovery would be of commercial quantity, but the deputy governor of the state, Engr Benson Abounu, is urging the federal government and the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) not to relent. Oil exploration north The excitement came as the sole administrator of the Apa local government in the state, Danjuma Solomon, visited the deputy governor to brief him on the discovery of the product in his domain. According to Solomon, oil seepage was discovered in his local government. He also spoke about the further discovery of exploratory oil wells drilled in the 1960s by Chevron Nig Ltd. Engr Abounu said, based on results of several geological investigations, the government was convinced that the state had oil and that exploration is just what was needed. Benue News reports that Abounu urged the federal government to intensify the search.

I doubt the fg would do anything as the NC is not regarded as true north... What a truthful pity... I advise that if they are true with their conviction they shouldn't solely rely on fg but also engage private investors. 1 Like |

Seriously The topic and the body of the report said "Northern Nigeria" I actually became elated when I read that....until I realized that it was Benue state where the discovery was made. Typical. When it favors the north, Benue state is referred to as "north" When it doesnt suit their purpose, they remind them that they are the "middle belt" 10 Likes 1 Share |

HtwoOw: Actually, its good news to them. Seem you are ignorant of the political dynamics such a discovery implies. The only thing that made it not so good news is that it happened in Benue. The average man from SS/SE is praying for oil to be discovered in the core north, so they can ease off their parasitic relationship with the rest of this thing that calls itself a country. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Now watch how the "tivs and the idomas" would start battling for control of the oil revenues and the location of its resources while forgetting about other viable revenue earners in the state! Pathetic! 1 Like |
