Bakasi reloading or what? would it be until the entire individuals and citizens of Nigeria are annexed to other countries, with no one left for them to govern before they would defend our territorial integrity. 30 Likes 1 Share |

I think this kind of fight is not meant for state Government. It is at this point the federal Government should step in, not state government. 64 Likes 3 Shares |

The Island had been on his administration’s radar because of its huge deposit of petroleum resources. Its funny how these people are suddenly a priority because of oil. They've been ignored for years by the state and federal government unless there's elections. Im guessing the governor is subtly alluding to Bakassi situation. Anyway lets hope the search produces positive results for everyone involved. He added that state government would set up a team to visit the Island soon on a fact-finding mission and to find out what could be done to assure the people of the area that they have not been forgotten. Facts about the island: Only 1 dilapidated school that serves primary 1-6. Expecting mothers deliver babies in Benin Republic.

Lol the response from Benin Republic will be interesting. Their Nigerian ambassador is accusing them of subversion. amaniro: Benin wouldn't declare war they'd just go to court if they're interested. The FG can step in with infrastructure and building base there. Smugglers frequent that island. 6 Likes |

Is it that Nigerians cannot do without oil? The southerners keep insulting the northerners about been unproductive simply because they don't have oil. Take away oil in the south and they will be as useless and unproductive as the north. Oil this, oil that. #spits 6 Likes 1 Share |

This is a Federal issue and Boundary Commission need to act fast before we experience another Bakassi issue, France always backs there former colonies when it comes to crude oil. The question is would the governor have shown interest if there was no oil deposit there. Am sure the indegenes there lack basic amenities. 7 Likes |
