Dreal1247: .I agree with you. Without Nigeria,the artificial congregation and concentration of the entire national business enterprise in the SW will naturally cease. |

I think the west will suffer more. They don't contribute anytin to de nations economy. Hehehe I can see some of yu saying wat of de sea ports in Lagos. I laff yu cos if dis country seperates, Lagos will automatically cease to exist. Infact it will become a ghost town. The only reason Lagos is still standing is because of "oyel" money.

I think this is a very important topic and I agree its gotta be the west. The west will only have cocoa as source of foreign exchange earner. The North am sure has oil aplenty in their desert. Mods please frontpage. 1 Like |

Sadly, there are a lot of dullards above me. There are companies that their annual turn over is far more than the total amount we realize from Oil. Switzland has no oil or natural resource but is far richer than Nigeria, Japan has little resources but is a far richer country than Nigeria. The west has a Vibrant population, crude-oil, Bitumen, Cocoa, Limestone and arable land for cash crops to mention a few. The west will have it best because peace is required for progress. I just hope the South East and Niger Delta region don't get stuck in a battle for control of oil resources because we all know that those kinds of resources lead to civil wars in Africa. 16 Likes |

The part that would suffer most is the part that cant stay in their own region The part with red barren clay soil The part where every adult must flee from if they want to make it in life The part that car parks every January looks like there is a war going on The part that visiting the South West is like going to America The part where the indigenes are afraid to live for fear of being kidnapped and eaten The part whose governor even had a Special adviser on Lagos affairs The part that would end up being land locked. The part that struggles to attache to the South South by force 55 Likes |

The most important resource any country can have is its "Human resources" which is determined by how skillful and intelligent they are. Any region that can harness its human resources most effectively will be the most sucessful region. Those thinking there is no life outside oil will end up killing themselves over it......Wait....they've already started killing themselves, kidnapping themselves, stealing the oil(bunkering), destroying their environment themselves by blowing up pipelines in the name of protesting, fighting themselves...... "Where great natural resources is discovered in Africa, people there suffer a great deal". Its a normal occurence in Africa. 9 Likes |

Crude oil, diamonds in the hands of idiots will lead to war but a barren desert in the hands of intelligent individuals will lead to a fertile farmland and plentiful harvest for all.

My tots tho Dont worry, you'll find out useful that Oil is to you when the U.S becomes the largest Oil producer in the world by 2015. When they become independent of foreign Petroleum producers in less than 48 months I'd like you to come repeat this rubbish your monkey mouth blurted out. If the West is smart they'll be vigorously pushing for Nigeria's disintegration starting now cus major shiyyyt is about to hit the fan. 3 Likes |

Afam4evaIsASlut: As a matter of fact, western nations are working towards alternative energies to oil. U.S is about to become the number one oil producing nation. If that happens, Nigeria must look for other ways to generate money. Southwestern Nigeria has a lot to gain when western nations stop buying oil from Nigeria because of the enormous human resources available to us. 2 Likes |

Afam4evaIsASlut:They'll sell to China.....but is there a guarantee that their average citizen will feel its effect?? I don't think so because currently, with the money being pumped into that region, there isn't much to show for it so what's the guarantee that will change?? As long as they keep looking at other regions as their enemy, their leaders will keep plundering them and get richer. Billionaires will emerge from the Niger Delta but the region will still be stagnant.....Wait....I think its happening already. 2 Likes |

Mogidi:Wrong...How much does each western state receive as monthly allocation due to Oil?? Now how easy do you think it would be to create alternate industries that will generate the equivalent or more?? Do you think its Only oil companies that are present in the west?? Don't be Miopic, there are tonnes of companies that generate way more income than Nigeria. You are part of those that belive there is little or no life outside crude-oil. Crude thinking. The west will be prosperous. Do you even know how many African Countries that don't have oil but are still flourishing?? Kenya for example. Learn to think not belive Crude oil is your Alpha and Omega. 11 Likes |
Re: Who Suffers If Nigeria Divides? by ba7man(m): 11:34pm On May 30, 2013 |
With the huge allocation the Niger Delta is receiving ATM, there are still Non-oil producing African Nations that receive less but have it better than them. So what's the big deal?? The greater percentage of the Oil is even squandered on a few so its not as if the masses really feel it in the first place. Trust me, That crude oil some place their hopes on is over-rated. 3 Likes |

Mogidi:The money will come from Crude-Oil, Cocoa (You need to visit OAU university campus to know what was acheived with Cocoa money), Bitumen, other cash crops we can grow. We will always come out sucessful because we know how to set aside differences and come together to acheive common goals. We also have a diverse and intelligent population that will continue to fuel the service based industries.......see, its not only crude-oil that's an industry. This will also allow us explore manufacturing things for Chrissake!!!...."Made in Oduduwaland". I used Kenya as an example because they have abundant wildlife and instead of killing them, they harnessed them to boost their tourism......they were "Thinking". Using your brain is important, far more important than Crude-oil. 13 Likes |
Re: Who Suffers If Nigeria Divides? by ba7man(m): 12:00am On May 31, 2013 |
To those thinking Crude-Oil is their God......A thinking, innovative population is far more important than all the Crude-Oil in the World. "The most valuable resource a country can have is its human resource".....not crude-oil. If you don't belive this, sorry, but you're not intelligent enough. 3 Likes |
