The people have spoken loud and clear.We do not want the water bill.

Every state or individual can establish ranches.
The water bill is a bid to satisfy Fulanis.

I like the Fulanis before but I am beginning to dislike them because of the obvious upheavals they have caused and continue to cause all over Nigeria.Pls,live and let live.

So water is now the mist important thing to Nigerian government? Tell them to pass bill that will protect Nigerians both home and abroad, they won't. Tell them about a bill that will force every governor to make sure they finish the projects they started before their tenure ends, they will say it's hate speech. Tell them to pass a bill that will improve the educational and health sector in Nigeria, no way, they will all go blind and deaf.
Tell them to pass a bill compelling all state governors to pay saleries to workers and make sure no one is being owed, iyaa, they can never try it. But they want to own everything including the air people breath. If you want to breath, you beg the northern Fulani government for oxygen.
God will punish all those pushing for inactment of wicked laws. Their generations down to the 6th won't see peace.

Both surface and underground water belongs to the federal government.

To use water for anything you must be licensed by fg

You can't drill Wells, borehole, dam,etc without a license

A particular amount of land area covering a water body belongs to FG and only FG can appropriate it to anybody

That means someone can just come from Abuja with a license stating that the river in your backyard belongs to him and as such the land surrounding it belongs to him

Ma fo
. Really? Wonders shall never ends.

The controversial water bill is a legislation that was passed in the senate and house of reps that gives the federal government powers to control waters, waterway in any parts of Nigeria infact any where there is large mass of water in the south and middle belt region and used it for the benefit of all Nigerians whether you are in the north or south.

But there has been valid resistance to this water resources bill in the southern part of Nigeria including the middlebelt because of the high level of mistrust and suspicion that it is another RUGA settlement plan that is been orchestrated by the northern elites to conquer the south and take over their water ways and water resources including land.

There is growing fear that the water bill is intend to take over the land of the indigenous people of the south.

Those who are against the water bill feel that the federal government will settle non indigene in their land and take over their water resources.




Thanks

I just don't understand this Buhari led government. When discussions are on restructuring and increase in capacity of the state to have control over resources within the state, the Buhari led government want to increase FG's authority over all resources. This country is in continuous confused state.

please can someone enlighten me , what is this water bill all about


If the bill is successful, that means federal government represented by one Adamu from North will be in total control of all the water in Southern Nigeria.

Fulanis from the North or Sahel will be controlling waters in South, you can't fish in your water, you will need permission from them before you can use your water.

They can easily lease the water to their fellow Fulanis.
Same thing they are doing to oil today, the North have taken major positions in NNPC.

Before you dig well or borehole in your compound, you will need permission from Buhari's kinsmen. We know Buhari nepotism is inbuild.

We need restructuring in Nigeria.

We are calling for devolution of power but the core North is trying to centralise and control everything in Nigeria and turn others to slaves.

Do you know that the North West have up to 7 states with 21 senators?

While South East have only 5 States with 15 senators.

This is the reason the North West keep dominating Nigeria.

But you know that's what will happen.

Check how the Northerners control almost NNPC, who own the highest oil wells.

The Fulanis want to centralise everything while we are calling for restructuring.

Check how they control every security agencies and tell my why anyone from the South should trust them when they are rubbing shit on our faces.
