How much benefit does the crude give you if a community decides not to allow the pipelines pass through their land?

will such a community that prevent pipeline passing through their land not use petroleum products

Thank you sir. Some people don loose their sense finish because of oil. So if the nw sw se nc and ne buy oil from the ss na ss go suppose pay for the transport of the oil? I am prett sure that the incoming administration will be the hand that will finally push for the dissolution of this scam called Nigeria.

where the hell are you from?

OYO STATE

OrlandoOwoh:

In Arepo, Ogun State, there is pipeline vandalization. If Jonathan feels giving OPC the contract to protect the pipelines there is necessary, why should the land not enjoy the PIB (cleaning up) when the pipes are vandalized or there is a spill? For me, just like PasshingShot, it should be 70-30. The Niger Delta should get 70% while others should get 30%.

The entire country(others) ?

Emeka Ihedioha, the deputy speaker, an ibo man was the one who presided over the meeting of the house. I wonder why you are now blaming the Fulani

So if he was presiding, he should cancel the amendment. Does he have the powers to do so. Who brought the amendment in the first place. Why was the yes greater than the nays, who constituted majority of the yes.

The speaker has no power to cancel any issue raised by any member of the house he just presides over the activities of the house.

Jesus christ! I don't even know what to say. Everyday I wake hoping to acknowledge something positive about this country of ours that will give me hope about our future but the more I try give myself hope and find reasons that this country will change and progress, I see a thousand reasons why this country will continue to go down as a cesspit. Nigeria sucks big time. This country is disgusting.
The level of injustice, hatred, greed, selfishness, impunity, ignorance, anger, prejudice and other disgusting human evils that has been perpetuated and being perpetuated in this useless country is out of proportion and unrivaled by any society in this world.

And you sound disgusting for typing this sheet, you dont have respect for your motherland thats if you are a nigerian.
Stop thinking from your anus next time you want to talktype about NIGERIA!

@eroticangela

You sound very young so I won't blame you for not knowing that The House Of Reps is not a Primary School class where the Class teacher sits in front , presides over the kids and has power over them. This is a public forum so you must educate yourself properly before you come here to show your deep ignorance. Ihedioha has one vote, let me repeat for emphasis- one vote. Whoever presides over The House doesnt have the power to cancel a vote just because he doesnt like it personally. Let me repeat for emphasis. The House of Reps is not a primary school class. Majority votes belong to the Northern Reps as they are more in number than Reps from the South. That is why people are blaming the North.I hope with this little explanation I have been able to inform you on what most adults in Nigeria already know.

Er0ticAngela:
very convenient for you jackass' to blame the north for all your problems. Red the article again; Emeka Ihedioha, the deputy speaker, an ibo man was the one who presided over the meeting of the house when the ammendment was made, but here you are, frothing in the mouth like mad dogs, blaming the North

dicefrost:
This is pure nonsense. The PHCF clause was included to protect communities whose environment is damaged by petroleum exploration. If you the entire country is the host community, it means we offer absolutely no compensation to those whose land, water and air is being polluted to feed the country. Go to ogoni, go to some ijaw villages. Some of them can't farm or fish again because of pollution, not to talk of the adverse health effect. But then, what negative effect does oil exploration have on a community in kano or jigawa state?. These reps do not understand that equal treatment is not always fair, and fair treatment is not always equal.

my dear dis are one of d many reasons d south voted base on ethnicity

Where in the source article dem put SW bro?

Go read am well, dem say "NORTH ARE TRYING TO AMEND AND SMUGGLE IN A CLAUSE". how com you find SW IN THAT?

Stop being Yorubaphobia bro biko, ndo!

We in SW CAN only work with you folks to put the amend in the cool, if you people only know who real enemy is. Face North, just SW VOTED AGAINST GEJ don't mean the hate S.south or S.east. Thank.

your west excluded themselves from voting knowing full well that the north has a upper hand in terms of majority... just as the did during the civil war.......... its a matter of time you won't be able to hide your hatred for the south

by the way am not an Igbo...don't generalize it

Er0ticAngela:
Look at these silly people blaming the North for their woes. Emeka Ihedioha, the deputy speaker, an ibo man was the one who presided over the meeting of the house when the ammendement ws made; why then are you cockroaches blaming the North?

Are the Northerners the only one in the house of assembly? Why couldnt your reps vote against it?

sorry to educate u on this..u have forgotten that we have voice votes in the assembly or simply put aye nd nays...
take a gud look at the article and u would find out were the ayes nd nays came from.as for ihedioha he only does as the voices weight on the balance good day

What a laugh. ..you mean distribution point?
Cause that's what those useless pipelines are for. To send oil to you lazy bumbs

Don't mind passingshot he is a stúpid boy

Nigeria is doomed. Just and see. We are not one, and those foolanis saying one Nigeria are just saying so because of the oil. My question is, if this oil is in the north or SW, would there still be one Nigeria? The answer is a resounding NO. #death to nigeria

Oil is in Ondo.

There is reserve in Tonkeji Island of Ogun State.

Lagos is a potential oil producing. May we never find oil there.

Its clear there r lots of kids on dis forum n pple wu dont analyse issues properly before jumpin here to comment.

The amendment, from my own perspective, has not taken anytin away from d oil producing communities! It only expanded d term "host community" to include areas thru wich oil pipes pass thru. Isn't dat fair enof

Pple shout on d oil spill in d niger delta, yes its a fact! Buh what is d fed govt (headed by a son of d soil) doin abt it. The UNEP report is gathering dust waitin to b implemented yet sum pple r shoutin phantom conspiracy!

What happens to places like arepo, sagamu, apapa where there is a network of oil pipes incase there is a savage attack on these installations?

This issue is just lyk d ish btw russia n ukraine. Russia has gas buh ukraine is d gateway for russia's pipes, so there is an agreement n if russia falters, ukraine simply locks d gas taps. Ba masala

Amendment or no amendment does not in anyway change d special status that d oil producing communities deserve buh lyk i av always said: the pple there shld hold their leaders responsible cos no other area enjoys such benefits they av.

It does not in anyway, reduce d niger delta to a mere money-making factory buh instead accommodated more pple whose lands these pipes pass thru. We all deserve from this "oyel".

Thank u.

Henrypraise:
On a serious note, dis decision is more nationalistic. I see no reason y a community shud be given 10percent of a companies net profit. D grants dat av bin given to dem since let dem giv us detailed report.

Wit so many companies at soukobolou in delta state, I was surprise wen I saw school children trekking abt 12-15kilometers every day to go to sch, I asked a question y can d companies not provide buses for d community n I was shown a luxurious bus n told it was provided by one of the companies for the students but the community executives hired d bus to a company for daily pay.

Again I was shown anoda spoilt bus been sold for scrap metal by one of the "lords" in the community n I was told it got spoilt n no one bothered to repair or fix it.

Dis bill n d change in clauses will enable niger deltans wake up n re assess their selfish characters.

You're absolutely right!

It is either d house do not understand English meaning of host community or someone upstreams wants to try someone downstream Let the Niger delta braise up and nigeria might wake up to discover the real host community has taken over their oil. Don't try d patience of ND militants please.

engrkenny:


OLODO! are Igbos the petroleum host communities?? Why can't you leave Igbos alone? This is the most painful part, this one doesn't even know what host community means.

u are the olodo who cant read properly.ode,look at the post i replied before pressing the summit button.the 1d1ot i quoted was talking about the way nigeria was structured and i only reminded him those who structured it that way since u people suffer from selective amnesia.your mother is the d olodo rabata that is why u are dullard urself

and whats the arguement of your lunatic brothers who are already blaming the north?

In the article, we didnt see the name of any northern rep who supported or opposed the motion, so why then were you scums hurriedly blaming us?

Do us a favor, Google "Northern Lawmakers kick against PIB Passage" you will have all the proof you need from day 1. you can try same search with South east or South South Lawmakers for different results...cheers

Yes there is nothing we can do about it....but the north and west should remember that we are no longer in (1966)...if this persist hmmmm.something go happen ooooo.....because our republic is certain.. NIGER DELTA REPUBLIC and those fools that called themselves lawmakers should make their own and we in the Niger Deltans we have our own laws too.....if na their land them dey vandalize or an their river and air them dey pollute these NASS go soon tell us

I blame Jonathan ! imagine he spent all these years empowering the eastern region instead of licking northern ass ! It imagine if he used the power to make sure more states are created in d east , better roads ,or even moving the seat of power to the east ( nobody should talk rubbish after all a northerner did it n nigeria didn't divide ) . Charity begins at home they say but Jonathan is so daft .

Cluelessness is inherent in Niger delta so I am not suprused ..when biafra was on their fathers couldn't see the future they were enmeshed in Kaikai drinking that they couldnt smell the cofee now I will say good morning to Niger delta ..that is if they have woken up

Bunch of clueless region

If mend no fit blow all Oil welll to smithereens, paralyse d goddame oil mkt na dat one go pain me pass.

Make all of us go back to farming. This injustice dey sickeningm
Gosh ! What and insult!

If only this oil was in d north or west, d contraption called Naija would have since been a tale for history classes.

Amechi ! Good morning!
Your goat don born quints!
Enjoy!
