vladimiros: interpretation: WE CAN'T CONTROL THE SOUTH-SOUTH ANYMORE

GARRI (x7):
Our leaders are too mentally lazy. The fixation on oil money is silly. They should think of intellugent ways of generating money for their states....

Ikwere fist son: obi is nw a man nd eze hs graguatd frm skol

Muniru A: All Nigerians must benefit 4rm d sector. There shudnt b a wide gap btw south-south and other parts of Nig in distribution of oil income. D same shud apply to oda sectors

logica: Which sector is the North sharing revenue with the rest of the country? Disease sector?

okpara ugo: If there exists 800milion tonnes of limestone in Yobe state, why hasn't Nigeria's biggest industrialist opened a cement factory in Yobe state to utilize the deposit Come to think of it, all Dangote's production factories are in the south and/or middle belt.

Northerners have made their area un-inhabitable and they cry foul.

onome25: NORTH DRY THIS FESTIVE PERIOD NO BE SMALL.KIA COME SEE KADUNA WEN DEY BUBBLE BEFORE DON TURN TO WHERE DUST DEY LIVE!(people run away this festive period) MY FRIENDS THAT HAVE LEFT PLS COME BACK LETS BUBBLE OR ME TOO GO RE-LOCATE MY SELF & BIZ AWAY O.BOKO GUYZ HAVE KILLED THE BEAUTIFUL LIFE STYLE IN THE NORTH...what a shame & agony to the northernans.

The problem some Nigerians have is that they have never travelled out so they keep seeing a single page in the book of life and some don't use their internet access to poen their mind and broaden their horizon.
USA has majority of it's oil fields in Alaska and very few in California and Texas and yet the over 50 states of this country benefit from it,I'v never heard the US senators talk of derivative formular.They pass bills that will be beneficial to the whole nation.
“Yes nobody planted or ever farmed crude oil",it's a natural resources endowed by God.Go and check mineral resources distribution map of any country,you realise,one resources or the other is bestowed on different region.
When power generation started in Nigeria,from Dams situated in Northern region,the north never clamour for rationing the megawatts of power generated using any derivative formular.
Recently,you own kinsman,Tam David-west revealed how much you'v received using tthis derivative formular(#11.7trillion)and yet there's nothing to show for it.Gov's of the southern region have always been the regular customers of EFCC,due to the large amount they receive with nothing to justify it.
It's time we think as a true Nigerian and address issues objectively for our own long term benefit. God bless Nigeria.

chrisdstar: Imagine the comment"Nobody planted or farmed oil",atimes i wonder if this Northerners think we are fools.In USA for example,some states are highly richer than the others,for example,u cant compare New york with New zealand,this is because another man is not mean't to eat from another man's pocket.If they had oil from their actions,we won't be one by now,cos i know they wud fight to the end,and they wud also show U where it was written in their Quran to protect their own.we southerners have been linient enough with them.

alakid: I am from the north central, I'm for one Nigeria but let it be known that we are not afraid of leaving behind Nigeria for our own country, and let it be known that the whole concept of middle-belt is overrated. There is no clearly demarcated map, and the people are still as different as white and black. So once again I say to all ye that stay in the comfort of your home and write critisms of the north, know that we do not benefit from crude oil proceeds, what has a tomato farmer in sokoto gotten from so called oil? Govt does not subsidize his fertilizer, he buys fuel at higher than market value (international) and there is no social security or welfare of any kind.
Let it be categorically clear to you critics that we are as tired of the arrangement as you are, we want a strong regional govt that allows us harness our agricultural and natural resources not a federal govt that has refused to allow us mine our resources and keeps handing crumbs to our selfish leaders who finish it all without thinking of the masses. I am a proud northerner but I'm ashamed of our leaders!

Ozonna:

Are you saying that the whole of USA (50+ states)depend on oil wealth coming from Alaska . I no fit shout .

For your information, Shiroro and Kainji Dams located in northern Nigeria are not the only power generating stations we had/have in Nigeria. In Eastern Nigeria, we had the Oji power station in Enugu state and it was powered by Coal also located in Enugu State. Remember it was IBB that finally stopped coal mining in Nigeria.

It doesn't matter if the Governors of Niger Delta are blowing their money away because its not your business neither is it mine. Its their OYEL money not yours. Let's put pressure on our Govs and Federal reps so that they'll support a resource control bill and not just about pib. Northern Nigeria is so endowed with solid minerals and land mass, let their leaders insist on resource control instead of depending on OYEL

lacasa: Endorsed!.

God bless the Senator for saying what needs to be said.

It's simple and straightforward, as long as the FG is in charge of the totality of oil reserves and its proceeds then, all nooks and crannies of the Federation must get their share in revenue allocation in a "Fair and sustainable sharing ratio".


The SS/N-delta are getting too much at the expense of others with little or nothing to account for it.

In fact, their Governors blow the large sums on private jets n mansions thereby leaving the SS/N-delta looking more like a wild jungle inhabited by 'Savages'.


If the govt has ηo interest in exploiting the oil up North or other vast resources in the region, then the oyel must flow without any ojoro to all & sundry.

Thank you
