ba7man: 1000 Gbosaas for this statement!..totally true. Seriously it baffles me How these ND people dont Know that the best way to win in this century is through Diplomacy, Knowing the game, playing the game. Violence or the threat of violence only goes to show that they are all clueless idiots who think Brawn is Mightier than brains. These Guys should just calm down, get educated, stop looking for handouts, enter strategic levels of oil and gas business, create peaceful( not extortive) business environments in the delta. That is the only way to prevent Coys moving away from that area. 7 Likes |

alpontif: Simply there is no such thing as Niger Delta. Niger Delta is a collection of random ethnic groups whose only claim to unity is crude oil and not being Igbo. That is why there is no solid movement among these groups that call themselves Niger Delta. 3 Likes |

Any topic about Niger Delta is quickly turned into 'Igbos want your Oil' by non Igbos and South-South people here, meanwhile this relocation is not to Nsukka or Abagana but to Lagos. Divide and Rule of the Igbos and South-South will no longer work as media control is no longer in the South West and BBC/CNN. 1 Like |

Btw, the two states with the largest gas reserves in the country at the moment are Anambra and Imo. For proximity reasons Bonny makes more sense in the exportation of this resource from the two states. If Bonny is investment-friendly enough for gas exports, then it should be good enough for this latest proposed project. A few months ago oba Akiolu made his Lagoon statements, and that ought to be an eye-opener for the Lagos non-indigenes. Investments of this nature ought to be spread to different places. My fellow Igbos should no longer look at Lagos as a southern territory, because when push comes to shove, you will find out that you have no stake in Lagos. Every Igbo should be in support of the agitation of Bonny people for the citing of this investment in Bonny or Calabar or anywhere in Akwa Ibom or Bayelsa, or even Oguta lake 4 Likes 3 Shares |

The decision to site a dry shipyard in the Badagary is a well-thought business decision, only individuals who lack the capacity for objective reasoning will see it as an attempt to marginalize the Niger-Delta. It is this sort of parochial mentality that has retarded Nigeria's growth. This "because oil and gas is produced in the Niger-Delta, therefore all businesses relating to oil and gas should be sited in the Niger-Delta even if it is not economically feasible to do so" mentality is idiocy...How can a person with common sense reason this way ?. To the so called "Youth Leaders", the age of blackmailing oil companies to pay bribes by shouting marginalization each time an oil company or FG wants to invest in other parts of Nigeria is gone. Turn away from this negative way of thinking and living because it will only lead to self destruction. 3 Likes |

When they are done with it , they should shut down Nigerian breweries as well. Why would an omoluabi site his ship yard in a lawless region? The same reason why commercial container ship avoid the same place Lawlessness which has caused high insurance fees and bonds . A mumu was asking on the front page why site a ship yard in Lagos when the oil is in the ND. Answer : it is a shipyard where ships are repaired or built .Nothing to do with your damn Oil . Oil and gas is just one component. The main target customers are the ships coming into the west African sub region . Why are the oil coys headquartered in Lagos ? You should blame your fathers and brothers for what they did in 1994 . 3 Likes |

Symphony007: Dis post is exactl, reason they want it in Lagos. They know having this project established in outside SWest will cut activities in Lagos ports in a no distant time as both oil and non oil exportation/importation will rather go through ports in SS than Lagos as that Shipyard will draw many away from Lag. 1 Like |

Go and tell Jonathan , patience ,omokri,Askari, tompolo ,apkabio ,odili and others to go and build their own shipyard if they want it so much President Goodluck Jonathan has directed that a $500 million oil and gas investment project be relocated from LADOL Free Trade Zone (FTZ) in Lagos to Agga in Bayelsa State, The Nation learnt yesterday. The project is a partnership between LADOL Integrated Logistics Enterprise and Samsung Heavy Industries, Korea. The two companies are to build fabrication and integration yards for Egina Floating Production Storage and Offloading (FPSO) facility for the use of local and foreign-owned oil companies. The multi-million dollar project is in phases, and billed to be completed in the next five years. The project is said to have reached an “advanced stage” before Jonathan issued a directive that it should be relocated. The directive, contained in two letters dated April 27, was signed by Mr A.B Mohammed, a general manager with the Nigerian Ports Authority (NPA). Mohammed signed the letters on behalf of the NPA Managing Director, Sanusi Ado Bayero, who is believed to be a stakeholder in Intel, an oil and gas logistics firm in Rivers State– an allegation he has denied in newspaper advertorials. The letters read: “Pleased be informed that Mr President has vide PRES/99/MT/2/22 of April 20 approved the FPSO project be relocated to Agga in Bayelsa State when the facilities to handle such operations are developed. “In addition, the project can be conveniently located at any designated oil and gas terminal. Please be informed that Mr President has approved, henceforth, all oil and gas related cargoes must be handled only in the designated terminals in Onne, Warri and Calabar Ports. The letters added: “In view of this, vessels coming to Nigeria with oil and gas related cargoes, excluding petroleum products, are advised to first go to the appropriate concessioned terminals to be cleared by Customs and other relevant authorities, terminal operators and shipping firms.” The Managing Director, LADOL Integrated Logistics Enterprise, Dr Amy Jayesinmi, said the timing of the letters was wrong. She said the directive was ill-conceived, and capable of destroying the gains made by the partners in the project. She said the directive to relocate the project to Bayelsa was part of efforts to destroy the potential local operators who are bent on deepening their participation in the oil and gas sector. She said the letter was diversionary in content, advising stakeholders not to allow their attention to be distracted. Mrs. Jayesinmi said efforts were being made by oil and gas operators to build one of the biggest floating vessels in the world, as well as making Nigeria the oil and gas hub in West Africa, adding that nothing would frustrate that efforts. She added: “We got the two letters the same day: a day after the appointment of the new MD of NPA. I want to make it clear that we (LADOL) do not have problems with NPA because they are using our facility. “NPA has an office in LADOL Free Trade Zone. NPA had severally said LADOL is the largest private investor in its facility. By the end of 2017, LADOL would have invested $500million in NPA facility. Technically, it is not appropriate for the project to be relocated to Bayelsa, the President’s home state.’’ 5 Likes |
