Buhari Lied About When Oil Was Discovered In Nigeria by snailspeed: 2:53pm On May 10, 2016
Yesterday, Buhari, while in katsina told his people that Crude Oil have not been discovered before the Nigeria civil war. But Crude Oil was discovered in Oloibiri in 1956, the Nigeria civil war was fought between 1967-70. Anytime you pass through the location where Oil was first discovered in Oloibiri, you will see the epitaph close to the Oil valve where the date and year was visibly engraved.

Even if someone deliberately removed this epitaph with its engravings, the dates and year of the Oil discovery are still prominent in our history books and records. You can now see why they deliberately removed history curriculum from our schools to ensure our children never learn the truth.

This wasnt a slip because he went on to use it as a reason to support his stand of one-nigeria. The 1966 coup and the eventual civil war was all about oil. It has always and will always be about oil.

Ojukwu was already exporting oil from Portharcourt terminal by the time the war started in 1967. Nigeria was quite lucky to to have had the British on their side because it was British warships that blockaded Biafra and prevented Ojukwu from selling Oil and importing food, arms and ammunition. Gowon on the other hand had no money to fight the war. Had Britain stayed neutral, Ojukwu would have won.

In 1956 oil was discovered by Shell-BP

1959 was the year the 50-50 tax profit law was established..

Offshore licence was issued in 1962.

Civil war started in 1967.

We should ask the junketing Daura cow where he got his own version from....

Ojukwu decimated the Nigerian soldiers before Awolowo resorted to impoverishing of biafran kids.
