Gas Flaring Is Rising In The Niger Delta by Naijiant: 11:14pm On Nov 15, 2018 |
In Nigeria's Niger Delta, gas flares are killing crops, polluting water and damaging human health. The Nigerian government has promised to tackle the problem — but new data shows flaring has even gone up.More: https://www.naijiant.com/guestcolumn/gas-flaring-continues-scorching-nigerias-niger-delta/ |

There are a lot of de-flaring projects ongoing in the Niger Delta as we type here. The projects had been in the doldrums before now because of lack of funding occasioned by cash call debts and tragically low oil prices. However, with the eradication of the cash call regime in 2016 and increased cash flow to the IOCs, they're proceeding with the projects. Also there's increased pressure on them from DPR and others who don't hesitate to issue hefty fines which the oil companies are loathe to pay. Also, Nigeria is seeking to increase her LNG production from 22Mta to 30Mta which means the LNG trains will need a lot of gas so reducing the flares will actually turn money for these coys If the tempo is sustained, we will see a drastic reduction in the volume of gas being flared very soon |

Niger Deltas have really suffered for this country. All the oil wealth, yet the government is deliberately stalling on policies that directly affect their health. Fulanis are very wicked. Dependently cruel and abnormally entitled. Thank you Niger Delta, for funding Buhari's son 200M Naira power bike. ILY. 1 Like |

TarOrfeek: Hmmm.....i like your words of wisdom. We should however remember that a son of the soil, GEJ, was VP for 2 years, Acting president for 1 year and full executive president for 5 years. Did the Fulani's also stop him from doing something about his homeland? |

shukuokukobambi:Buhari supporters and senseless argument. Who built the only federal university in buhari state? Why didn't buhari build it when he ruled in 83 |

MXrep: atikulooting zombies and dense thinking. Has the buillding of the University in Buhari's village eliminated the flares destroying the environment in the Niger Delta? 1 Like |
