Stop talking jargon, you one nigerianist bigot. That is the prize of the foolishness of all you one nigeria buffoons. I wonder why a bonafide Igbo man would like to be under subjugation of foreigners and still be happy suffering the consequences. Sometimes, I ask myself if all you that pose as Igbos and supporting one nigeria here are actually Igbos.
Dude, i don't know from what rock you crawled out from, but you need to crawl back again if you're going to keep on rambling like a deranged thug!
Pick out the part of my post you quoted that points to me being a 'one Nigerianist bigot'! You think you want the secession of Igbos from 'one Nigeria' more than me? It seems you've already worked out the modalities for us leaving the Nigerian hellhole tomorrow...care to share them with us? While i prefer a much more subtle but realistic approach to the bid for secession, it appears you on the other hand prefer the Rambo approach....going in armed to the eyeballs, with all guns blazing!
Gov. Yahaya Bello of Kogi has expressed the state government’s appreciation to President Muhammadu Buhari recognizing it as one of the Oil-producing states.
This is contained in a statement by Mr Onogwu Muhammed, Chief Press Secretary to Bello on Wednesday.
”Gov. Bello conveyed his thank you message to Mr President during his visit to the Presidential Villa, Abuja, on Tuesday.
”Kogi was listed among Nigeria’s oil-producing States by the Revenue Mobilisation Allocation and Fiscal Commission (RMAFC),” he said.
Bello said that he briefed President Buhari on the need to resuscitate the Ajaokuta Steel Complex, in Kogi.
”The aim of my visit to Mr President was to thank him for the recognition of Kogi State as one of the Oil-producing states in the country.
“And we also discussed the issue of Ajaokuta Steel Complex which Mr President said all efforts are ongoing to ensure the Steel Complex comes up before the end of his administration,” Bello stated.
Bello also noted that with the recognition of Kogi and Anambra, the age-long oil wells dispute that resulted in unwarranted killings and destruction of properties has ended.
”President Buhari’s decision has brought peaceful resolution of the dispute. The disputes between two communities of Odeke in Ibaji local government area of Kogi and Aguleri in Anambra state has come to an end.
“The Ibaji oil crisis has been on for a while and has led to large scale destruction of property with the loss of many lives.
“The Odeke and Aguleri communities of Kogi and Anambra laid exclusive claim to the ownership of the oil in the disputed area which has been finally resolved in favour of both states.
“By history, the exploration of crude oil in Ibaji Local Government Area which comes under the Anambra Basin in geological terms started in 1952.
“In the villages of Odeke, Echeno, Ihile, Anocha/Uchuchu, Omabo, Ikah, Iregwu and Ujeh all in Ibaji community of the present-day Ibaji Local Government Area of Kogi.
“Between 1952 and 1986 three companies namely; Shell BP (now SPDC), ELF (now Total Fina Elf) and AGIP Energy have drilled 25 exploration wells, 2 appraisal wells and eight-core drill wells in the entire Basin out of which majority of the wells fall into Kogi”
Kogi is a bless state,a village called ojuwo ochekwu in okpo olamaboro local government is setting on top of oil.in 1950 to 1952 that is where shell Bp started it operation in nigeria.from ojuwo ochekwu in okpo (maboro river) to ibaji about seven oil wells was found.pls go and verify
PROUDIGBO: So how come it’s only when Obiano put in the effort to correct the injustice being done to Anambra State that Buhari knew Kogi was a oil producing state!?
I’ve said it, that this new status Anambra has gained is paining some people as it isn’t part of the post-war script on emasculating and dealing with the Igbos! Their hands were tied on this one, because it’s just as obvious as the Pope being Catholic that oil production is going on in Anambra! So they grudgingly agreed! But they had to find a way to limit the little they’ve conceded to Anambra by adding Kogi to the mix!
You have to ask yourself why they haven’t finished delineating the boundary between Anambra and Kogi almost a decade after they started! This foot-dragging has now meant Anambra has to share the 4 disputed wells with Kogi until maybe the second coming of Christ! It’s this uncertainty over which state owns the wells that has allowed Buhari to undercut Anambra and give oil producing status to Kogi!
Lol i dont understand why you guys cant ever be happy for someone or something else, bitter souls you can go and seize it if you feel cheated
