Ibos sha want to take south south by force..... The resource control is so much based on SS oil....

They want to invade SS should we ever go separate..

Never

Mindlog:


Invade SS because people in that region are dumb and helpless or what? The same SS who have their militants that have caused the FG headaches is what another region wants to "invade"?

SS don't need you to speak for them, they have been agitating for resource control way back Obasanjo's Presidency!

DenreleDave:


I hope so oooo... Make SE no go invade una oooo

Mindlog:


Don't hope anything, set àwón defender of South-south.

Let Nigeria practice true Federalism and have power less concentrated in Abuju. I am glad that electricity generation, transmission and distribution have been removed from the Exclusive list, let Nigerians be told the excuses why Governors across Nigeria can not see to it that their State's residents have access to steady power supply.

South West are more afraid of Resource Control than any region in this country.
In a span of just two years maximum, Resource Control will deplete the Country like mad.

country more United and prosperous

Seun, mynd44

Nigeria as we know has not reached its full potential, economically, and militarily, when compared to countries like turkey, Brazil, India, South Korea, Taiwan, what these countries have in common is there will and seriousness to develop.
We cannot say same for Nigeria, a country full of ethnic hatred, and poverty, and a political system which tends to serve the rich only, these concluded presidential election has opened to the surface the deep hatred we have for each other.
My Igbo brothers are now thinking of relocating their businesses to the east and eventually settling down there, cousins that are living abroad are trying to sell all there properties in Lagos and investing in the east as a result of the fallout of these election, they see Lagos as bad economic investment, with the way the Yoruba’s are behaving, the brotherhood of all ethnic nationality's is fast eroding. I keep wondering why the Yoruba’s hardly invest outside their region, what are they afraid off please I need someone to tell me.
These bring me to the topic of resource control, all over the world the regions of countries reflects the wealth which lies underneath their soil, California is the richest state in America because most of the wealth created their are controlled and kept by the state , they only pay taxes to the center, likewise Andalusia, Catalonia, Barcelona in Spain, Bavaria in Germany, Scotland and England in the UK , sandton in South Africa just to name a few.
Nigeria needs true federalism and resource control to develop.
When it was suggested in the house of assembly and the senate that oil companies should relocate their head offices to their region of operations Yoruba senators where vehemently opposed to it, I wonder what their reasons were, you cannot be extracting oil from a place and be paying taxes from your headquarters to another place, it doesn’t make sense .
Texas is the largest oil producing state in the USA and that is were you will find the head offices of most oil firms , if each state in Nigeria controls their resources and a new political system is introduced to make it difficult for politicians to steal, I bet you these country will develop so fast, a system were corrupt politicians are jailed and punished etc Brazil, South Korea, south Africa, USA, Europe and a system were the six regions in the country can have a Governor General () overseeing the states, with someone like Peter obi being the in the south east and Atiku can be the in the Northeast and kwankwaso In the NW etc these will reduce lots of tensions and ethnic hatred, and it will make each regions to strategize and bring about development they will be begging for investors to come to their regions even if it is local, I BELIEVE POWER IN THE CENTER SHOULD BE DISSIPATED AND NOT CONSOLIDATED each region should be given the chance to grow at their own pace these will bring about a lasting peace and unity, the issue of indigenes and settlers should be resolved also, we have Nigerians holding political offices in other countries but we cannot tolerate ourselves holding political offices in our regions
Obama’s father was a Kenyan , yet he became the president of the most prosperous and powerful nation on earth, there is too much hatred, illiteracy, backwardness, poverty and underdevelopment in this country countries like India have various languages yet they are ahead of us.
Daily we read on social media how ibos and Yorubas are always at each other’s throat , even before this election, let us practice true federalism and resource control and dissipate more powers to the regions you will see how the hatred we have for each other will disappear .
Again each states should be allowed to fix the term limit and salaries of each governor’s we are running a unitary system that has outlived its usefulness.
Yoruba’s should not be afraid of ibo’s taking over there land they should be more concerned
About bringing developments to their region and ibo’s should not be afraid of not ruling these country they have been at the helm of affairs before , including being the governor of Lagos state ebitu ukiwe and Udubusi Kanu , they have been army chief, naval chiefs, IGP, Vice President, foreign ministers, secretary to the government, central bank governors and many more posts.
Northerners should not be afraid of resource control since they have discovered oil in their region
Yoruba’s should not be afraid even as they have not discovered oil in their region, we have not heard anything concerning the one discovered in Lagos, I pray each regions discover oil so that we can continue to live in peace

Watch out for my next topic the similarities in language between ibo’s and Yoruba’s eg eti means ear in Yoruba and nti in ibo , enu means mouth in Yoruba and onu in ibo , imu means nose in Yoruba and imi in ibo language

Which Region. Has come out to ask for Resource Control?

I am for Resource Control and the reason is simple: We all can't be sharing the SS Oyel Money while others keep their Cow money and Cocoa money without bring it to Abuja for sharing.

Make we practice True Federalism.

But any region where there leaders have not ask for RC should not claim others are scared of it.

Difrent:


Be frank and fair.
Why did the oil companies relocate to outside the niger delta?
I remember Warri back in the days when it was fine to kidnap oil workers for ransom...first it was whites getting kidnapped...when the white were no longer available the black top management became targets when those were not available then they turned on eachother.

Afraid? Abeg, try another lie.

South West governors have been actively pushing for more autonomy, more region type government and resource control. OP must have been living under a rock.

sapele914 PARASITE:
Then advocate for Local Governments to control their resources, then most likely after that, you will want if natural resources is found in your backyard the owner of the land, should keep the oil, gas, gold etc, because it was your fore fathers that planted the natural resources in the earth?
parasitic way of thinking
Lazy way of thinking.
