There is nothing anti-North about this, the government is looking for snow in the desert; another way to siphon money into the hands of thieves - both Southerners and Northerners.
They will just dig some shallow wells and say they are looking for oil. Of course, they will say they cannot find any at the end, but they would have had the opportunity to steal billions! Shege barawo! Onyiosi

southerners are obviously confused -

One minute they are making jest of northerners saying - the north is dry with no resources.
They next minute they are complaining saying the north has enough resources to sustain its self.

i think you are the 1 that is confused,
no seriously,

look at the above statement

everybody knows that the north has everything an agriculture country craves for,
theonly thing they lack is oil in commercial quantity, cos as far am concerned oil is the only resource of relevance in this country,

its wots moving this country,
and its the yardstick that makes this country relevant to the outside world,

BUMP!

Interesting that BEAF used the term Core North and Parasites in June 15 2010, a term Reno Omokri denied using in a tweet that thousands saw on 20 Oct 2011.

Beaf:

You will find oil in the "core North". And what a combination it will be! Home-grown, ruthlessly professional parasites and immoral looters vs absolute poverty, misery and hopeless dejection. The criminal levels of mismanagement of the North will become immediately apparent, their elite will groan about their folly in taking to the easy ways of oil bunkering; they will wish they never abandoned agriculture and the good old ways of hard work and honesty. Fuelled by religious extremism, Talakawa's will rise up and fight oppression. It is a scenario that will 10,000 times worse than the ND. Maybe, there will even be a war of attrition in the affected states. . . And of course, the rest of the country will be only too willing to forcefully put down any dissenters, because, they would have become the new vultures.
You will find oil "core North" and the chickens will come home to roost.

nakays: oil have been found in some areas of jigawa state
