Nigeria’s Crude Oil Belongs To The North - Bugaje (video) by Sunnynwa: 7:32pm On May 27, 2016

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j-4c9-Yf0-k


One of the lead speakers at the Northern Leaders’ Conference, Usman Bugaje, has raised a controversial issue on the ownership of Nigeria’s crude oil domiciled majorly in the Niger Delta region.

According to him, it is wrong for any state to claim that it is oil producing because 72% of the total land mass in the country belonged to the North and that by the United Nation’s law; it is only the North that actually has the right to claim ownership.

Dr. Bugaje, in his presentation, insisted that “there are no oil producing states.” He argued that “the only oil producing state is the Nigerian state itself.”

He explained, “Whatever mileage you get in the sea, according to the United Nations Law of the sea, is a measure of the land mass that you have; that is what gives you the mileage into the sea…and the land mass of this country, that gives that long 200 nautical miles or more into the ocean, is because of that 72% of the land mass of this country, which is the North.”

To buttress his argument, Dr. Bugaje also said, “The investment came from the Nigerian state and the territory belongs to the Nigerian state.”

He further maintained, “What they claim is the off shore oil is actually the oil of the North” contending that “we should stop using these terms that have no sense at all. There are no oil producing states.”

The tittle of the post is very misleading and does not address the facts therein stated by the Dr. Truely any offshore facilities into the high seas claimed by the Nigerian state is defended by its landmass. Given that said landmass of the Nigerian state is largely 72% contributed by the said “northern” non oil producing states.

Therefore as concluded by the Dr there are no oil producing states as concerns nautical explorations. FG is the only oil producing entity. This would apply to Lagos, Osun , Ogun and The Chad basin

NDA is actually clarifying the facts.
Just bcoz they packed soldiers to Niger-Delta was the advantages the North have been enjoying.
I think Niger-Delta have come of age and hence the arms they've taken against Lugard's cooperation. Because folks like you will exist in Nigeria, I hereby denounce my citizenship bcoz cretins like you can't continue to share countries with me.

I agree with this bugaje man the North owns the oil in Nigeria.


The north is playing there cards meticulously, what is the south doing ? Confused and divided as usual.

The Islamic jihadist are claiming caliphate in Nigeria, the Northern senators are silently pushing shariah law to prominence in Nigeria,the al majiris are claiming our streets in Nigeria,the fulani herdsmen are claiming territories in your villages... Yes u are right Nigeria belongs to the north.

Nasarawa state has the largest mineral deposit in Nigeria,but still maintain its status as one of the poorest states. Why? Because of oil. Our over dependency on oil is killing us. How can we move forward when states can't even generate revenue enough to pay their own workers. Governors rush down to Abuja every month to collect allocations and sometimes bail out funds.
States need to start looking inward,every state has resources to bank on. And the only solution to this,lies in True Federalism where each region would have to develop at its own pace,strength and available resources. Then will our resources and true potentials be harnessed; coupled with a healthy competition among the various regions in terms of development. Secession is never the solution to Nigeria's problem but Regional rule or true federalism. Biafra should sheath their swords. Avengers should uncork their guns. The entity Nigeria would still remain,but regional rule should be adopted.

Bugaje is one of the people promoting Nigerian unity when it's so hopelessly lopsided in their favor, yet he speaks for millions of his power hungry constituents.
The oil and the whole Niger Delta was created by God to serve the Fulanis.

One of those people who think downside up. Always manipulating words to suit their devious purposes. I love northerners; I live with them, but some of their elites think, breathe, and talk rubbish all day.

Dr. Bugaje, a phd holder? Withdraw it immediately If his degree is not enough to teach him not to add more inciteful comments to the ones already made by his brother, the President. Sometimes, caution is what we need.

I know you are a Northerner. If they born any of you well, come down south and claim the oil.

I have never supported movements by agitators but because of your comment, I am taking sides with the avengers. Let them blow up everything till Nigeria produces zero oil and let's see if you guys won't take your eyes of the oil.

In the US, owners of oil bloc own theirs when oil in found in their land passed on to generations, not like it's being done in Nigeria where the government claim ownership.

you own your solid minerals, it doesn't belong to any southerner
you own your land, it doesn't belong to any southerner

....but other peoples land and oil belong to you.
