Nigeria is in the top league of world oil producers but the country could export
much more if it was not plagued by inefficiency and an armed insurrection in the
Delta of the River Niger where the oil is found.
The government has brought an end to some of that militancy by offering an
amnesty.
But another problem is the widespread theft of crude oil in the Delta.
The BBC's International Development Correspondent Mark Doyle recently flew
over the area to see how much oil is being stolen.

The will of God.
All na 'employment'!

As we pray. . .

not right, but no news

Too Bad

So what? What has britain done reduce poverty in nigeria compared to what france is doing in francophone countries? Abeg make dem rest!!!!!!

This cant be a serious reporter. How can you investigate how much oil is being stolen by flying over a region. Reporters are daily risking

their lives at battlefront seeking out news worthy materials. The worst thing that can happen to him in the creek is getting kidnapped.

Everyone knows that these ND guys are no religious freaks, they are business men. No one will cut off his head. If he wants to get people

interested let him come down and do some serious investigative reporting not this child's play.

what do you mean ?You better dont say what you dont know.

BBC, you people are f00l. You flew down to the South South only to see how oil is been stolen. It is your oil. You did not fly to see how our politicians are jeopardizing this country. How corruption rules in high places. Oh i see! you are only concerned about the oil, Ehh? Thunder fire una there. Hope your plane crash on your way back home. . .that is, if you haven't gone back.

to the uninformed, this BBC & their other cohorts in the western press cannot love us more than we do each other!
their main concern is the OIL!
the french peeps have not done anything spectacular to their former wards (francophone west, east & central africa), be not deceived as they (colonialists) are all birds of the same feather.
these same so-called bunkerers are the same peeps that have fat bank accounts in their (reporters') countries.
its just shameful that Africans have lost their pride aeons ago & are paying lip-service in getting it back!
