The FG have failed in their duty of protecting the oil pipelines. The result is the grounding of the economy.
SeveredSnakes, you speak from both sides of the mouth. You support militants blowing up oil facilities and blaming Buhari for it an now you blame Buhari for taking it easy on the militant. DDreen!

If I hear.... Okpai... Agip host community in Ndokwa East produces oil, gas and hosts a power plant, yet the community is in darkness with no motorable roads.... D power generated in okpa is stepped down in Obosi.... Anambra state....

Does that make sense to you?

Even if it is 1mw out of 150mw, give to the community that produces and hosts the facilities ....

The marginal field operators in that axis are currently building pipeline over communities that BEDC Has refused to supply light for over 3 years now.

We are not saying we don't want to share oil revenue or power with other states in Nigeria ... What we are saying is... If you want to take, take whatever you want and leave something for the community that produces it.....

After taking wat they want they wil still destroy existing infrastructure on top with their heavy vehicles ... Its not fair.


Before Agip built that same power plant, the rest of the country, including Obosi, PH, Lagos, Calabar, Aba, Umuahia, etc, were enjoying light generated from Kainji. The Kainji community did not have light back then but the people of Warri did not complain, they were happy to have the light. Same way, the road from Ughelli to Warri was built from bitumen mined in Ondo state back then, no one complained.

All that I am saying is, we have all benefited from something coming out of the other states.

Huh! I thought the pipeline bombings would affect 0nly the parasitic Yoruba's and Hausa's o, so the effect reach Delta state? Una never see anything, nobody will beg you guys before you voluntarily reset your brain to start working properly.
I don't know where u guys get dis dumb thinking, that d people of ND can stop d NDA. U really don't know those guys. U want us to carry gun and fish dem out like Adesina said? There is nothing even our governors can do. They may even threaten d governors sef.

So. .. In your mind... Delta people enjoyed those services free of charge?

They don't pay nepa bills?

And the government didn't pay d contractors that built the bitumen roads?

Don't get me wrong .... We are not saying we don't want to share or give resources ....

What we are saying is... If you want to take... Take wat u want and leave small for your host community.

Heavy duty equipments being moved by oil companies often destroy feeble communal road.

Oil dey yet we are paying N145 for per liter for imported petrol.

Gas dey to generate power...... Dey sell 20%, use 10% to generate power dat is stepped down far away.... Den they flare the remaining 70%... If a plant generates 150mw, is 500kva or so allocation to host community too much? Why leave them in darkness?

Oil exploration and hydro dam are two different things. Dams affect the ecology only once after they are built... You have probably not been to Niger delta Where gas is being flared for over 30 years now without respite

If you want to build pipeline or flow Station .... You can build as long as u want.. after u are done, repair the roads u cut up to lay your pipes....dont just lay pipe and run away..

Or build power Station and leave ur host without power

That is what we are saying.

Is any part of Nigeria enjoying fuel (diesel, kero, ago, lpfo or pms) free of charge?


BTW, stop the FUD, no oil company cuts roads to lay pipes and doesn't return them back to normal. Most of the development in these places are also largely due to the operations of these same oil companies. Most rural areas even have roads because the oil companies built these roads, some wouldn't have light if not for these oil companies.

We all need each other.

It makes no sense using resources produced by 8-10 states to spoon feed 26 other states. angry

Delta state has 3 power plants but yet no light in Asaba ...

It doesn't make sense to continue suffering and sweating to power, oil and gas and receive peanuts or nothing....

while other states who don't even know what gas flaring is like or how farm lands are rendered worthless is pipelines are laid in it.... Are receiving free monthly allocation without breaking a sweat.

Until fiscal federalism or regionalism... Dey should bomb everything to 0.0 barrels per day.

Rubbish country angry
there is love in sharing lol
