Give it to Benin Republic, are they not all Oduduwa people, I thought you guys wants freedom from Nigeria, you can start by letting Benin Republic Annex that one, later they can Annex a whole state and much later they can Annex the whole South West, or what do you really want. 14 Likes 3 Shares |

These paranoid screeds are irrational. If you dont want to lose the island don't go to ICJ and kill over it. There's no evidence Benin wants or even has a reasonable claim to the island anyway. 2 Likes |

Abiodun hinted that the Ogun was determined to make life more meaningful for its resident living on the Island, stressing that the Federal Government must collaborate with the state in giving the residents a sense belonging by providing access road and bridge for them amongst other infrastructural needs. A 2019 investigation by sunnewspaper showed the state failed woefully. If the islanders were smart they'd vote to become their own local government. The state and local government they're apart of dont care about them so they should get wise. The allocation the island gets could provide basic infrastructure and make them more politically relevant. Facts about the island: Only 1 dilapidated school that serves primary 1-6. Expecting mothers deliver babies in Benin Republic. No acess roads No electricity No market 1 Like |

while the state was also working with Ondo to activate the Deep Sea Port project in the mutual interest of the two states and the country’s economic development. This would be interesting. 1 Like |

If the island belongs to Nigeria how in da hell will Benin claim it? International engagements don't work that way I also doubt Buhari will be interested in securing an oil rich Island for the South given his search for oil in the north has been fruitless so far. |

Agboriotejoye: You're wrong if that's the case. You should be able to understand this by reading the article and his previous statements on the matter. He seems to really believe Benin is secretly plotting to take the island from him. Abiodun, who cautioned that Nigeria should learn from the Bakassi Island issue, said governments at both levels must provide social amenities for the residents of the island to prevent Benin from taking advantage of its proximity to the Tongeji and claim ownership. |

Oil in ogun State too? Make we break up tomorrow na |

adedehinbo:Infact the oil in tongeji Island is very vast and deep. That's why I laugh those ignorants saying southwest doesn't have oil. We also have bitumen in large deposits at odeda in ogun state. The bottom line is to exhaust Niger delta oil then breakaway from Nigeria to enjoy our oil in peace 1 Like |

Blue3k:Don't be an oversabi. What the gov is saying is that Benin Republic might claim the land as theirs due to the fact that 1. It's on the Nigeria/Benin border and might not be clearly mapped out yet. 2. The name suggests the inhabitants are the egun people who are indigenous to Benin Republic. So if a plebiscite was to hold there, it might favour Benin. What the gov is saying is that the govt take steps to have solid presence on the island such as to discourage any such thoughts coming from Benin Republic |
