Igbos Are Not Being Cheated Or Marginalized- Sen. Ndume Says as he Slams Biafra

The Chairman, Senate Committee on Army, who is also representing the Borno South Senatorial District, Senator Ali Ndume has dismissed the agitations by some groups for Nigeria to break up, saying that the country is better as united entity.

The Senator also said that whatever grievances that people have can be solved within the constitutional framework that presently exist and if there is need for reforms it can also be addressed amicably without any recourse to violence or threats.

Speaking in a recent interview with Punch, Ndume noted that the cry of marginalization by the South East was unnecessary because they do not contribute much to country’s wealth.

He noted that 90 percent of Nigeria’s revenue comes from the South-South, yet that region has not been crying about marginalization or about being cheated. He added that the only demand that the South-South is making is for the oil derivation that accrues to them be reviewed upward from 13 percent.

“When you talk about oil, 90 per cent of the resources we depend on to survive in Nigeria is coming from the South-South geopolitical zone, yet the people there are not talking about dividing the country. They are also not worried about who is spending the money realised from oil sales.”

“In the South-East, it is only Abia State that has an oil producing area. So, where did you get that idea that the Igbo are being cheated or marginalized,” he queried adding that only the South-South have a reason to cry about marginalization or being cheated.

The senator was speaking in the context of the claim by some leaders and groups in the South East that the region has been marginalized politically and economically, especially since the end of the civil war.

Some of the evidences of the marginalization according to proponents of the marginalization theory is the refusal of the Federal government to build the second Niger Bridge and the lack of a sea port to allow for free movement of people and goods in and out of the South East. They are also frustrated that no Igbo man has been elected Nigeria’s President.

This sentiment is what gave birth to secession groups like MASSOB and Indigenous People of Biafra who are agitating for an independent state for the Igbos called Biafra. Another ground for their agitations is that the north is liability on the other parts of the country, hence their insistence on a united Nigeria.

But Senator Ndume says such sentiment is unfounded and baseless, adding that the Northern Nigerian is blessed with tremendous amount of natural resources and even large deposits of oil and gas. According to him crude oil has been found in Sokoto, but what is left is for exploration activities to commence.

He also pointed to the presence of oil and gas in Borno, Bauchi as well as the Chad and Gongola basins adding that very soon, some Northern states will be counted as part of the oil producing states. The senator also disclosed that Zamfara has a large deposit of gold.

The Senator who says he feels disgusted by the idea that the north is a liability on Nigeria, opined that while the Southerners freely move up north to get juicy government jobs, the same cannot be said of the northerners who only go to the south to provide services that are needed.

Okwyjesus:


It's foolishness in the highest order to see people think from their bum bum.
From the above it's obvious

1. Ndume don't understand the power of intellectual might as one of lgbos biggest asset. Great nation is not build with natural resources but with brain and lgbos got it. You can see that in the progress of the lgbos after the war devastation.

2.The north enjoys the quietness of the SS while they feast on their oil but is sad the SE will always drag their tail ad they sit to feast.

3. The day lgbos leave NIGERIA ,sorry will be for other southern states.

4.North don't like anybody that will look at their face to speak the truth.

AfonjaConehead:

I was at NIMASA in Lagos with some sailors who went to lay a complaint at a particular office in charge of certain complaints and it was a woman that was in charge. We got there and we were directed to her office by a group of about four Hausa staff to her office. From the look on their faces,one would know immediately that they were very angry that a woman,a Southern woman held that position. But the good was that,the said woman is a daughter of past president Obasanjo and there was nothing they could do about it.
Go to the whole NIMASA in the entire Lagos and even the entire south and you will be shocked to see them,hajia,'halji,mallams even Hausa kilisi/suya sellers has better access to the premises than sailors without whom,NIMASA is dead!!
But the sad thing is,the yorubas know all these but do or say absolutely nothing...but instead their focus is on the Igbos!!!!

ahiboilandgas:
agricultural contribute 65 percent of Gpd and the North is the agricultural hub of Nigeria .the bean you eat today was produced in the north by northern the onion the power and the beer and Milo you drank .it all from Millets and sourhgum. Produced in the north by northern people .

Workch:
Did you bring your statistics from a northern university? Lol

So you think Agriculture has more stake than oil and gas in Nigeria? You are joking.

90 percentage of yearly IGR comes from oil production, custom duties and federal taxes which obviously the north doesn’t contribute much.

You better wake up, north is parasitic
