Imagine comparing oil to tomatoes and onions, less than one week of fuel scarcity and d con3 is shutting down! Fud can easily be imported frm neigboring African co3s with oil money

I still don't know why some Northerners are so excited at the prospect of getting Oil in the North. Ya know no matter what is found there it wont be enough to sustain the entire Northern population huh? BESIDES YOU GOT WAY BIGGER PROBLEMS THAN THAT.

Maybe if you people give more attention to getting quality education and not cheating your way up to Graduation (thinking you're doing yourself any favors) we wouldn't be having graduates that cant even write properly.

Oh and while you're at it SOLVE YOUR GODDAMN RELIGIOUS ISSUES unless you wanna end up going the way of the Arab Countries.

What i wanna see done in this country is

- Mandate Education in the North (All ya need is basic Education so nobody said you MUST go to a University but Secondary School is a must). Oversee those Schools to make sure people are actually meeting standards and not just cheating all the time (THEY DO THAT ALOT!).

- Law Enforcement Empowered. Lose all the Unfit, unqualified personnel that fill the Force and hire people with basic secondary school Education, Train them properly and arm them with PROPER Pistols not some fvcking assault rifle. Set up a database for storing criminal records and all other necessary things. This should take care of all the Serial lawless ignorant dolts that like to Kill random and Burn churches, Courts etc because they 'are offended'.

- And IF Education still hasn't taken care of it then find a way to Control Population Growth. They'll probably resist with their Religious excuses but i say IMPOSE BIRTH CONTROL on them. Because i don't see the point of putting measures to fix the North when they just keep creating more problems by giving birth to Kids they cant take care of hence restarting the Cycle of Uneducated, Almajiris, Rioters, Thugs , More Illiteracy etc.

Buhari wont be around Forever. And if your people are continuously Ignorant they will always end up having Ignorant people leading them which is basically why the North is so backwards.

But as you can see Niger/Chad and others that you share a lot in common with ain't so great either so maybe you just were never meant to be Developed.

P.S This isn't a Southerner speaking, I'm more Hausa and Islamic than any of you (unless you're judging by ignorance level then you win)

You forgot that you are first to comment, congrats. I tell you every one hundred kilometres of our nation space has huge potentials for conflicts. In some parts of Nigeria the land mass suggest 25 kilometres.

the time Oil is discovered in commercial quantity in the North, that is when the country will disintegrate

PassingShot:


And that the South actually needs the North more than the North needing the South for the fact that it's the North that feeds the nation. Many countries can survive without oil whereas no country can survive without food.

Lalasticlala, this is FP material.

CSTR2:
Are you kidding me?
The south needs the north more because of food?
what food, btw?
All the heavy foods like rice, yams,cassava e.tc. are either imported or grown in the south.
The only food that comes from the north like onions, carrots, pepper and meat can be easily be imported.
It is nitwits like you that destroys your one-nigeria by giving the north a false sense of importance thereby enslaving the rest of the country, instead of making them work harder to reduce their parasitism and improve the country foreign exchange earnings.

I would like to believe that u are educated. if u really are then pls apply some intelligence when posting responses to an abviously smart post. we are d ones placing undue importance on the south due to crude which is why Nigeria is where she is today as a leprose giant. This is a nation that when properly managed is indivisible. Everyside complimenting the other. Will d south eat its oil? No! Will d north power themselves with their food? No! So what do we do? We all pitch in our strenghts and make us all great. The whole world needs food and oil so why not have 2 focal points rather than 1? Also I sincerely pray oil is found in the chad basin because at the stage we are now we need all the cash exchangeable resources we can get because GEJ drove Nigeria off a cliff.

Calling you a nitwit is doing you a favour.
I wish there was another adjective i could use.
Only a nitwit will believe spices and meat is a comparative advantage in this century.

Bevista:
Especially when it's not properly paragraphed. To summarize, though:

Ben Murray Bruce encourages Mutual Assured Restoration (MAR) - A situation where the north & south learn to coexist in peace and harmony, leveraging one another's strengths.

He believes the south needs the north as much as the north needs the South - while the north depends on the south for oil revenue, the south depends on the north for food. He believes nations can survive without oil, but they cannot survive without food and many of our staple foods be it Rice, locally grown wheat, cows on the hoof, tomatoes, peppers onions etc., come from the North.

[I add that - while oil (the south) contributes most to our National revenue, Agriculture (the north) contributes most to our GDP.]

Ben encourages GMB to explore for oil in the Chad Basin, such that the ND won't always have to hold the whole country to ransome with their militant threat anytime they feel begrudged.

In summary, he believes #WeNeedEachOther and that #ThereIsStrengthInUnity.

You are the illiterate here.
Oil is your foreign exchange earner not food.
Infact food does not give any comparative advantage anywhere in the world, so yes, the niger -delta is the most important region in Nigeria.
Without oil revenues, nothing can be done in Nigeria.
I don't have time to appeal to sentiments.
What i expect you one-nigeria proponents to do is to ask the other parasitic regions to wake up and contribute to the nation earnings, not continually downgrading the contribution of the niger-delta so as to improve your collective self-worth due to inferiority complex.

Yeah, whatever. Ni bani ma da lokacin rigima da wawa irinka. Kuna da matsala! In kun ga dama ku gyara kanku ! in kuma kun ga dama ku zauna na ku karata da tsiyarku. Ni dai na gode Allah na fita daga Kasarku ta banza da hofi.

And I hope the Nation breaks up aswell , Its about time you people learn your lessons (i.e you cant Live on another Regions resources and continue to perpetuate acts of violence against them, You DONT own Nigeria hence your Brothers must not 'always be President') thats all i can think from the top of my head.

I already knew you people will Never address the Issues that actually matter the most in your region. Thats the Only reason i support the Split Up of that Country (Also im sick and tired of some Southerners attitude but that doesn't mean they don't have valid complaints about you people)

naijadeyhia:


This response of yours truely proves that u indeed are a mo/ron. in my response to you did I call u an illiterate? For you to adduce that I did by saying tha I am d one who is an illiterate is ludicrously absurd. Obviously u have not travelled outside d shores of Nigeria to see what countries without a single droplet of oil look like and are being run. So in ur warped mind you think by comparison oil revenue in any country exceeds food revenue? GO BACK TO SCHOOL AND REDEEM YOUR WASTED EDUCATIONAL YEARS!

Nations focus on oil due to its energy uses and that is one end of d divide because the same nations focus on agricultural imports/exports because of its life sustainability. Nations do without oil but can import pms and ago or lpg but no nation on earth can do without food

elohorayodele:
we de watch! for our own sakes we better all wish buhari well.

on another note, Oil money can feed the Niger delta, if the ND is independent we have the resources(money) to import food and then develop our agriculture. It will be like one of the richest countries in the world. A non-corrupt govt is necessary though
