Unfortunately for them, you can't threaten a soldier. The only language they understand is war
Highest Buhari will slow down their prosecution till his second term when he will show them real pepper. By then militants would have run out of funds and arms

I pity Niger Deltans cos no how soldiers won't desecrate their lands sooner or later

bashydemy:



And the total shutdown will affect the entire Nigeria and will affect their region more, Whose land is being damage? The last time i check there's no drinkable water in Otu-Oke and their land is fast getting worse.

cktheluckyman:

Why don't you allow the SE to go since they produce nothing and are rather parasites!! BTW what volume of oil does Lagos have? Did I hear you say oil in the north? Lwkmd

It is you that will regret it in the long run by the time living in your area becomes impossible.

The fact remains that the FG would lose more!!! It just makes no sense prosecuting Tompolo for allegedly stealing N13billion and end up losing over N1trillion Worth of oil revenues!! If the FG knows they can't contain the militants, they better park one side

Dasuks:
The FG cannot be intimidated.not by ragtag hoodlums. Tho caution would still need to be exercised.

The delta oil consignment we sell is about 122 million tonne per annum ( times 7 for barrels equivalent). That's a good 60 to a 100 billion annually depending on the market price. Nigeria better be looking at finished goods processing and manufacturing and not talking about other minerals and raw materials sales. Cos if it's the oil revenues one is trying to replace you need something that measures up to the cash volume it generates.
The 60-100 billion that naija gets from the 1.7 trillion dollar oil industry is several times the global nickel industry ( 20billion) , equal to the aluminum and copper industries as a whole (70-90 billion). And just short of the iron ore industry ( 110 ). Gold and the rest as. Global entities are about (170 b). You understand that individual participants in these industries take off either few billions or hundreds of millions. As for diamonds and rare earth metals lol. Those top off at about 5 billion globally.
Nowhere near replacing the revenues we have from oil. The hole will be glaring.
The Borno area apparently holds about 280 million tones of Doba like oil ( acidic and heavy ). Barely double the delta annual output in its entirety. How much do you think we'd make from that shit.

Lagos is the best bet with its service oriented sector that could serve the entire west Africa region. Even then that isn't raw revenue for govt. more closely affects GDP lol.
Let the FG be practical with this thing. And buy up some elders and groups to play up against the others. So there isn't a united front. The cash bleed is detrimental to the FG as they get the bulk share of 52/53 percent of the mula on a normal day. Even more so states without oil that depend solely on the FG will get bitten on it too. FG take the lead and use your federal might. One man called tompolo or whatever his name cannot be harming a vital source of income.

All these ppl dat know d road to otueke, how many times do i have to tell u DAT even b4 militancy dis ppl have always been bullied by IOCs and intimidated by soldiers!! The activities dea pollute d land and sea constantly and flaring pollutes d air and cause unbearable heat while u sit in ur AC office and try to offer ur rational explanation.

Militancy or not dese ppl suffer 4rm military presence, dubious IOCs and unchecked activities.

emi14:



Those guys will never ran out of cases inasmuch as crude oil flows and it's black market exists.

I don't think it is right to take Federal might on the people of Niger Delta, because it will only continue to create animosity of the people against Nigeria. Every region already have it on grievance against the state. The region has suffered enough neglect and I believe that if government show enough effort and not the one on paper, in developing that region, even the people there will rise against the militants. As it is presently, Nigeria has only Lagos and Abuja with real Federal presence and development, other state are just struggling. Those people there see the region as being exploited to the benefit of Nigeria. Forget OMPADEC/NDDC, and the 13% Derivation, these are mediums to pacify the people. It easy for us to stay in Lagos or other part of Nigeria and justify our position, without recourse to the real experience in the ND. Let Buhari find away to convince this people to believe in him. Find away to keep the boys busy even though we know the mentality of an average youth there. There is need to change they way we do things since military incursion into leadership.

Alariwo2:


The North has started making provisions for their region incase of possible splitup which is quite imminent. Reason for oil exploration all over the North. They have gold and diamonds too

Yorubas have started harnessing the oil discovered in Lagos and some other states. Everyone is becoming alert to doomsday looming

what have you guys achieved in the SE? only to act as spectators in the development of other regions with no agenda to develop yours.
Everyone has started looking beyond SS oil, only igbos are still doing attache by force

I seriously pity you guys

StupidYorubaFool:
buhari step down or you'll die in office like yaradua

opius:


Unfortunately for u Soldiers re not even ready for any war... Do u know hw many soldier that has been killed in the North ?

Emassive:
Bros they can never run out of funds anytime soon. The weapon and money this guys have is more than 500Billion in reserve from Oil theft. Your alariwo name will reduce to OniSurulere by the time hunger finish u from Low oil income plus your daura king will rather spend 70% on the Govt expenditure than the economy that affects majorly you and your family. Be wise and don't war with those who fed your grand fathers.
Enjoy your week

marv1:
Where will they get the black market when illegal oil refinaries are been bombed everyday. By the time Fg is true with these militants they wont be able to have access to bunkering and illegal activities such that they wont threaten Fg. Fg and other investors may not invest in ND for a long time to come because of what is happening there today while other regions are attracting investors and developing. Niger Delta militants should also remember that what they are destroying today may take centuries to develop. So their cheer leaders and suporters should know that ahead of time.

You read some comments here and You'ld wonder if some people have morals at all. How can you know someone has embezzled and and still take sides with them because they are from your region. Really it beats my imagination how a whole region could be curropt to the point that it shows in their actions and utterances.
The highest number of people who are against Fayose are the same ppl from his region and You'ld want to wonder why and why is it the ppl that are not from his region that are praising him and encouraging him. The answer is not far fetched, an inherited legacy of curroption passed down from Generation to generation.
Even if the nation spilts today, it would spell doom for the same ppl clamouring for it because, Curroption in the blood would let them have civil war in less than five years of secession.
We are watching.

The non oil producing states without adequate IGR like Osun,Ekiti,Kogi etc are worse affected by these crisis!! The entire country feels the pinch and not just the ND States

Alariwo2:


Well even if they don't get arrested, their allies will suffer for it
Those recovered loots from PEJ won't be released. All the ill gotten wealth she has acquired will be stripped from her
The little one they have left will end up on militants sponsorship... That's how foolish they are

No abroad treatment for her again, she can die in Nigerian hospital now for all we care
It's still a win win for justice

snapshot:
and oil money coming to government cofers become impossible too.

bashydemy:



hahahaha how daft can someone be? #500billion hahahah please stop disgracing yourself.

having funds is a different thing, willingness to die is a different thing

are millitants willing to die like bokoharam?

Now i know you are blind in your brains.... Why do you think the fed govt is doing all it ca to stop oil theft?
Do you know how much was spent alone in Delta state election by militant groups just to impose their own governor?
I don't need to explain much cause you will need a class. Tompolo is worth more than all the SS Govrs put togther. He is the pillar of the region which is why the FG is after him at all cost but i pray they will never find him.

Abeg, it was Jonathan and Mama Piss that financed the Rigging in Rivers State, using our National Treasury

Tompolo can only run, he cant hide forever.
Even Osama Bin Laden could not
Just watch

Daboomb:


Upon all your analysis, you forgot to add that Ondo and Lagos are also OIL PRODUCING States!
The Oil from the Chad Basin, Lagos and Ondo, with Agriculture and Solid Minerals, coiupled with a revamp in the Electricity /Manufacturing Sectors is enough to counter the loss from the South/South Oil.
We will also not be funding their 13% derivation, NDCC and a host of other waste-pipes that they account for.

Anyway, let them continue to bomb the infrastructures and destroy their land.... when shyte hits the fan, will see what they will fall back on, for food and income.
