okkk

My south western peeps u guys are left behind in this oil exploration, Shey dem no go explore osun, ekiti,oyo, ondo, lagos,ogun ground nill for oil. one Nigeria indeed.

the best they can find there is groundnut oil. the north will alway parasite on the south . oil exploration indeed!

Great. Every region should have oyel so our foolish people from the south can stop blackmailing the government

.

Buhari dey vex o

hahaha, this our president aint ready for diversification. Poverty 101 is coming, when the food basket of the nation finds oil in commercial quantity in their state, every dick and tom would stop farming to chuck eye for oil.

Buhari, with all the news emanating with technologies improvements like electric cars, shale oil and more oil sellers joining the already over bloated market, sensible governments are seriously diversifying from oil.

which way Naija

lt is so clear the only thing that unites south and north is oil..

And since south east and south south are clamouring for autonomy and resource control then north is desperate for its own oil so it can attempt its own autonomy too..

Lord Luggard: O nii kuu re ...sorry he is already dead..

Still e no go Berra for am..

Adaure4ever:
Is there oil in benue? why not engage the money into Agro-industralization.

That would make too much sense and this is Buhari that we're talking about.

FriendChoice:


Shey u want control of your resources, then allow
him to find oil for fueling his northern brothers car.
You are just afraid if oil is found, then you have
nothing to show northern Nigeria.
Talk of diversification, yesterday green alternative is
launched by Prof. Yemi Osinbanjo

there is oil deposit in benue state.
Nw our brothers re afraid that they can be given back their oil to control. Shebi na wetin dem want.
See as dem dey lament. They knw it's game over.
There's no monopoly in oil deposit becos na God do the deposits.

Lobatan for Jonathan avengers. Let Lagos too begins exploration.

Oil... Smh

shey Oga Presido wan by force discover oil for North? Now am beginning to suspect the motive behind all his moves

Without oyel my people are killing themselves
This Zombie is coming back to life

I Thought These Guys Promised To Break Our Depency On Oil?

make Dem continue to explore the 10litres of fuel...

If every region don begin to drill oil, na who go dey raise shoulder again?

Well said

it's better to explore agric sector than cruide oil expecially in the north

The 5% will jst wake up one day and discover that oil explored in the north is x10 of theirs...

We dey siddon dey watch o.
Dem think sey dem fit deceive we Niger Deltans sey dem wan diversify from our oil.
So the exploration of oil for Chad Basin and Benue na diversification abi?
Lets siddon and watch.

Small money wen remain den wan waste all exploring while we de hungry isssorite!

We should all pray that North finds its own oil and In very humoungous quantity Biko

Funlordjnr:
Na only yam dem go find for inside that state ground!

Contrary to what you think Benue trough has vast but unproven deposits of oil ..it has been documented by the British sinew the 60s ..the bad News is that Hausa Fulanis will finish of people of the Benue trough through a well orchestrated genocide which we see already going on in Agatu so they can lay claimed to the oil

If this was part of the approved budget he should carry on. If not, it is a waste in the waiting

Those regions from Chad basin to Benue trough, & Niger regions hav abt 70% chances of oil-bearing. The bokos know this thatz why they occupied Borno, & killing along Benue as herdsmen jst to claim d oil...

omenka:
Not sure I would support this. Specialisation is key to industrialisation and economic growth. The Benue man is most adept in agriculture and we have an almost endless expanse of arable lands- we should focus on consolidation of our expertise instead of "switching lanes" unnecessarily.

Bro, if this comes to fruition, the instability in the ND would be small potatoes compared to what would happen here.

Tivs are suspicious about Idomas and tend to trust the Igedes more. Igedes don't trust the Idomas either as they tend to "corner to themselves" everything due for Benue South.

Regardless of the mistrust, we all co-habit peacefully but I have no doubt all that pent-up "animosity" would boil over soon as such a money spinner is thrown in the mix.

i came here to came here to look for you

I now understand why buhari had to shift kachikwu a sound guy from that GMD position... ..He just wants to give commands to a fellow northerner who would go drill exploratory Wells in the north without discussing facts about the basin.... ...

Buhari happy drilling...


Apc behold ya president...

LAUWALI222:

This is the most logical statement in this thread. I am sure you are well versed in politics and political economy.

The north should be discouraged from exploring oil. If they go all out into oil , who will go to the farms. The east cant farm, the west farms but not as hard and as dedicated as the north does.

The bulk of food we eat in this country, comes from the north. Our proteins supply is completely supplied by the northern part of Nigeria.

We are going to get very hungry if the north finds oil. I know they will share but most of their children will prefer a monthly stipend than go to the farms. Especially, if the government does not put a strong fist over the oil and break the monopoly the northern governors are trying to wield over oil production in Nigeria.

Niger-Deltan's na we go suffer pass

FriendChoice:
I pray this oil is found even if it's for consumption
within the country. So that north can be 100%
Independent. In case pipeline is bombard by Niger
Delta, we will still have enough for internal
consumption.

North with Oil
North with Tomatoes
North with Onions
North with Beef and Ponmo etc
North With sugar cane

At least our people will stop the blackmail when they find oil as we will then realize we have nothing.

SMH. This shows how half-witted and incautious how PMB is. Always failing to think of the future. Why can't he just think outside the box for once! Na who dey advise PMB?

Can't he for heaven sake see that Oil is becoming a thing of the past? Oil will NEVER return back to 100$. Other countries are moving past oil and seriously investing renewable energy.

Why is he wasting the little resource we have in search of oil instead of investing in other sector to boast the sinking Economy. I have the lists of natural resources in every states in Nigeria. There are alot of them he should focus on and tap to create job.
