Once again this is Nigeria in her colour, while some countries, for example Israel, keep on expanding their territories, Nigeria is eager to loose her territory.

Truely we have done nothing with the vast oil reserve we have. Should we now loose all our territories because we are not making use of our oil resources. This is not a good reason for this. We should have allowed Camerooun to take over all Nigeria because we are not making use of our oil.

Our leaders are only interested in how to fill their pocket not to defend the country. It's very sad.
