Verse 3
I never thought the day would come
When things would get so bad
I seen young kids hustling, makes me so mad
We the biggest black nation but nobody cares
Raise your voice and die amongst so many fears

And yes, I'll take my chances
Attacking the villian until my nation advances
A lot of lame promises they never fulfill
Oil rich but we suffering still

Me, I go yarn

It's time to fight
Me, I go yarn
It's time to break forth
And time to bite

It's time to separate this wrong from right
Me, I go yarn

It's time to break forth
And time to bite
Make we yarn
It's time to make advances
It's time to get some answers
It's time to separate this wrong from right

Me, I go yarn
Until them change the plan
Me, I go yarn
Direct me to the plan
My people fear to die
Why, we must try
Me, I go yarn
Until them change the plan
Make we yarn
Direct me to the plan
My people fear to die
Why, together we must try

Repeat Chorus till fade

The Nigerian constitution is a forgery - MNN

The Constitution started with "We the people hereby agree"


some transcribed points from the video below:

But We did not agree to give The President and 36 Governors immunity

We the people couldn't have agreed to give the key of the treasury to the executive branch

Nigeria has become a criminal enterprise where few people are using a forged document to rule 150Million people

We cannot be united by fraud and forgery

Nigerians have been calling for a Sovereign national conference but those who have secured themselves in Abuja have refused to listen

Who created the 36 states? Few Military elites!

Who created the 68 item exclusive lists in the Constitution that prevented a state like Lagos from generating her own electricity, do her own rail and manage her own sea port?

Less that 1% of the country's population has 90% of the assets of the country and you cannot break in, you are locked out!

Somebody will sit in Abuja and say he's (IG) Inspector General of Police for a state like Imo, how is that sensible? how will he know how things work locally in Mushin?

We cannot be bound by force for all times!

You need to watch that video if you have any Nigerian heritage at all.

If you can do a transcript that will be great too.

We want to Know who owns this land








WHO OWNS PAPA'S LAND AND OIL IN NIGERIA?

BY

GESIYE ANGAYE

The ownership and control of land, minerals and mineral oil have become controversial and political since 1978. Before the Land use Act of 1978, control over land was vested in families, clans, villages and communities in Southern Nigeria. Under the traditional or customary agrarian land tenure system, individuals did not have complete control over the land and the sale of land was hardly possible. Individual occupants of land were identified by the right they hold rather than by actual possession of land. In Northern Nigeria, the ownership and control of land was vested in the State government under the Land Tenure Law of 1962. However, the methods of agricultural organisation and production were similar to the system prevailing in the South. The Land Use Decree of 1978 vests all lands in a State in the Governor who shall hold it in trust for the people. The Land Use Decree is criticised for abrogating people's inalienable God-given rights to land ownership; effecting high concentration of land in the hands of a few people who are well connected with government, while depriving the small-scale farmers of land; causing delays in securing Certificate of Occupancy from government. The law is ineffective and not obeyed, especially in rural areas.



The 1999 Constitution Review Committee found that the Land Use Act was anti-people, undemocratic and that "the preponderant view in several parts of the country was that the Act was unduly oppressive and had in fact outlived its usefulness". Surprisingly, the Committee still recommended the retention of the Act, perhaps for political and economic reasons. Nigerian Constitutions have also changed the ownership and control of land and oil from time to time. For example, in the 1954 Nigerian Constitution, 100 per cent of the mining rents and royalties went to the Region of origin on the basis of derivation. The Okigbo Commission on Revenue Allocation of 1980 also recommended that 100 per cent of mining rents both on-shore and off-shore should be paid as of right to the mineral producing areas as the ownership of land is vested in the State Governor by virtue of the Land Use Decree of 1978.



But the Commission regarded the Federal Government as the owner of the minerals on which royalties are levied. The separation of rents and royalties is rather unfortunate because they are all incomes of landowners. In the Dictionary of Economics, Hansen defined Royalty as a payment made to a landowner for the extraction of minerals from beneath his land. Therefore, all rents and royalties both on-shore and off-shore belong to the mineral producing areas. Petroleum profit tax is what belongs to the State or Federal Government. In truly federal and just democracies like the United States of America, mining rents and royalties are paid directly to the landowners while the government collects petroleum profit taxes from the oil companies.



In order to capture oil revenue, Nigerian Constitutions and court judgements change like chameleon. Section 140(6) of the 1963 Constitution states that all minerals both solid and oil, found in the continental shelf of a region of Nigeria, belong exclusively to that region or state. On the other hand, Section 52(3) of the 1999 Constitution states that all minerals, mineral oils and natural gas belong to the Federal Government. Then a court of justice or injustice gives a contrived judgement. Describing the Supreme Court's decision as absurd, Amaechi wrote: "Mr. President went further and laid claim to all off-shore oil as Federal Government property, recently confirmed by the Supreme Court which had in 1919 and 1962 respectively delivered judgement to the contrary on the same subject matter". As Reverend Zilly Aggrey puts it "Out of the seven Supreme Court judges, none of them is from the Niger Delta or the littoral states. I as a pastor, having read the judgement went on my knees and took the entire Federal Government of Nigeria and the Supreme Court of Nigeria, to the Most Supreme Court of Heaven. If it is the wrong ruling, watch out. Nigeria would not rest until that judgement is corrected".



Why is Nigeria still grouped amongst the poorest nations of the World despite the huge petroleum wealth it had made since crude oil was first discovered at Oloibiri, Bayelsa State in 1958? Why were billions of Naira stolen by a single ruler? Is Nigeria robbing Peter to pay Paul and is therefore being robbed in return? There must be a curse which must be broken. The oppression of a powerless minority attracts heavy retribution. Nigeria cannot leave the oil producing minorities poor and use their oil wealth to build a peaceful, prosperous and wealthy nation. How many billions of Naira had been spent on National Electric Power Authority (NEPA) and Gas turbines to provide uninterrupted power supply by the present administration which many wrongly or rightly regard as anti-Niger Delta? NEPA, christened No Electric Power Available, may not provide constant light when those that fund NEPA are the only people not connected to NEPA national grid and remain in constant darkness. This is simple and pure retribution or karma and Nigeria is reaping what it sows. The logic that one owns the land and another owns the oil extracted from beneath the land is Nigerian logic or illogic propounded by parochial logicians. If crude oil were found under "the big three" eminent jurists would have inserted the enabling section in the 1999 Constitution to read: "Any oil found under any big three belongs exclusively to the owner of a big three'.



It is hoped that the Federal Government will not ask any oil producing state, especially Akwa Ibom, to refund even a kobo, based on the perverted supreme court judgement. If it does, then it should also refund the balance of the expropriated mineral rents and royalties to the rightful landlords. In the Nigerian situation where about 78 per cent of total federal revenue and 98 per cent of foreign exchange earnings in 1999 were derived from oil revenue, no patriotic Nigerian who is keenly interested in the overall development of the nation would suggest or support absolute resource control, especially mineral oil and gas resources. But the fundamental rights of the people must not be denied. Mineral rents and royalties rightly belong to the real landowners i.e. families, villages, communities and clans, irrespective of the unjust Constitutions, Petroleum and Land Use Acts. It is the denial of the property rights of the rightful owners of land and oil that has led to the disputes, dislocations, and conflicts between oil-bearing communities, and the oil companies and government. Therefore, it is in the best business interest of oil companies and government to recognise their true landlords. When the rightful of oil become business partners with oil companies and government then justice is done, and peace and progress will reign supreme in the Niger Delta Region in particular, and Nigeria is general.
