mmsen: Here's what an unbiased source had to say: One defining characteristic of administration in Northern Nigeria Protectorate was the inclusion of chiefs and emirs as "native authorities" fitting into British administration.[3] Taxation proved very difficult in the protectorate for the first years of British rule. Lugard's attempts to institute poll taxes were foiled by the emirates, the need to introduce coin controversy, and attempts to tax trade were opposed by powerful merchants.[3] This created a substantial deficit in the budget of the Protectorate and public works projects had to be paid by grants from the British Empire. As a result, the British often had significant shortages of British personnel before 1907. These pragmatic concerns resulted in incorporation of the traditional authorities within the British structure.[3] These same financial and administrative challenges resulted in discussions led by Lugard for the unification of the Lagos Colony, the Southern Nigeria Protectorate, and Northern Nigeria. The disparities between the protectorates was to be corrected by creating a central administration in Lagos, with custom revenues from the south paying for the projects in the north.[3] The unified Colony and Protectorate of Nigeria began in 1914 and had two lieutenant governors with one responsible for the area of the southern province and another responsible for the northern province. The administration in the north remained largely separate and included and deepened the use of native authorities. These divisions have been found to persist in many respects to this day. It wasn't because we couldn't, it's because we refused to give into the white mans demands because face it, we're bad as*es! Apparently you guys are good at accepting your masters demands, all the more reason why you can't break away without our blessing. |

Ahmeduana: Boko haram is an issue that a plain northern state can conquer but as to kidnappings armed robberies and other fraudulent acts in the south, that you're stuck with because corruption is in your dna, as for oil, it's not too late, heck I'm sure we do have the oil, just that we don't want to share with you, until we're done tapping yours, we'll break away and enjoy ours alone. |

EzioAuditore: That does not explain why northern Nigerian in 2015 is still not economically viable. They had to try and institute a poll tax - that only happens when there is insufficient business revenue. It wasn't southern poll tax that subsidized northern projects but customs revenue. Nothing in that passage refutes what I wrote. Why has 'Arewa' not even attempted to break away? Not even a murmuring? Could it be because things are much as they were in 1914? A few wealthy people and a huge, uneducated, poorly nourished underclass. P.S. Is it 'bad ass' to stagnate your own development? 1 Like |

mmsen: I have to say I feel quite offended that an IGBO man just called me a liar. Anyways, if I'm yearning for discovery of oil in the North then it's because I want the revenue to be used to revive the mining and agricultural sector in the north seeing as we have the vast lands and labour and all. Then we can go back to the occupation of our ancestors then in a few years when oil is totally utterly useless then you'll start sh*tying yourselves, heck! I'm quite sure you'll just murder each other into extinction because all you carry inside and out is ugliness and hatred. 1 Like |
Re: Buhari To Resume Oil Exploration In The Chad Basin by mmsen: 9:31pm On Apr 20, 2015 |
EzioAuditore: You assume that I'm Igbo? How foolish can you be? You have vast lands that you refuse to work. You have unskilled, uneducated labor because you refuse to educate your people. You have a large population of children who have never seen a class room. Teenage girls whose bodies have been ravaged by childbirth by way of fistula. Polio (in 2015). If you truly believe in Arewa agitate for a break away state and watch as your own people laugh at you for being so foolish. P.S. You cannot talk about killing in the south with Boko Haram and the crazy Fulani herdsmen killing for the sake of killing. Jos used to be a beautiful city - but the common factor in most of Nigeria's problems turned it into a war zone. 3 Likes |

mmsen: No! It's badass to not allow our brains and resources get raped by the white men! Education might be a problem for now but that will all change, seeing the vibrant new generation of intellectuals the north is nursing, I can honestly say the future looks bright. Just think 10 years into the future when oil is utterly useless, we'll see who holds all the cards. |
Re: Buhari To Resume Oil Exploration In The Chad Basin by mmsen: 9:38pm On Apr 20, 2015 |
EzioAuditore: You don't want your brains being raped by white men but are perfectly happy to allow them to be raped by the backwards and destructive Arabs. Have you looked at the illiteracy rates? The WAEC and NECO results? I'm glad that northerners are finally leaving some of their worst practices behind but what you are claiming is a long way off. There are other social impediments to progress that you have not acknowledged. 1 Like |

mmsen: What influence do the Arabs have in northern politics? Are we paying them tax? Did we pay them tax? Did they conquer and rape and pillage our people and force a tax on us? Forget about Waec and neco, we're very aware of your malpractices in the south but as a matter of fact, the percentage we've been getting is enough for us to achieve the future we're planning. Back then northerners didn't even consider western or modern Islamic education but the fact that there showing up is the positive here. You don't have to be a rocket scientist to make a difference. But you guys, even with your educated masses all your people do is steal and rob and all other unethical practices. |

Goziemartins: crude oil and gas exploration contributes about 15%:to GDP but more 80% to government earning. This indicates that Nigeria federal government lack the much needed skills to diversify and developed a more dynamic national income through tax, agriculture, solid minerals, manufacturing etc. Oil will significantly become on important the moment Nigeria is run properly |
Re: Buhari To Resume Oil Exploration In The Chad Basin by Nobody: 9:52pm On Apr 20, 2015 |
mmsen: In what world was Abacha more corrupt than IBB? Clearly you have no clue what you're talking about! IBB was the most corrupt leader Nigeria has ever had, I admit that but even he said that they were saints compared to GEJ, I believe him. And like you said, there are few northern elites, we can claim that our future generation is getting educated and we have a bright future, but what are your youths good for if not mischief? They've ruined the Nigerian name in and out of Africa, there's no sign of change! You are still the same old corrupt blokes you are. |
