You see the statement he made here , “Otherwise, 10 years from now, no one will agree to put money in the petroleum business except it comes from your cash flow.”

If Nigeria doesn't start preparing its own transition to other source of viable energy ehhh....Naija will be in for a deep shiii in about a decade.

SmartPolician:


Look how you changed the topic from oil discovery to women and virginity. Take this madness to the romance section. We discuss serious things in politics section.

Why do we fight war?
Why do we make money?
Why do we chase leadership roles?
Why do we buy houses?
Why do we do anything?


It's to have peace of mind and lead a comfortable life.

You can not have peace of mind and a comfortable life free of frustration if you marry a woman you did not disvirgin because she will fvck her ex the moment he shows up to her on Facebook or in the market and your mind will never be at rest to enjoy the money, the politics, the victory of war, the houses and even the water you drink.

Be wise. Some things are more than money and politics.

No more one Nigeria. Can’t wait.

It is just a matter of time, we all know crude moves in the bedrock, a time is coming when it will no longer be present in Niger Delta, and i suppose it's moving upward to the North now as research suggests the migration of crude oil in the strat, unlike solid minerals that are stationary.
Starting out from the source rock where they are formed, hydrocarbon molecules, which are light, set off on an upward journey to the surface. They accumulate in porous rock and are blocked by impermeable rock, thereby creating oil and gas deposits.
The natural pressures in the reservoir force the oil through the rock pores, into fractures, and up production wells. This natural flow of oil is called “primary production.” It can go on for days or years. But after a while, an oil reservoir begins to lose pressure, like the air leaving a balloon.
First, imagine the depth of the Grand Canyon. The average Texas oil well is 900 feet deeper again - but this is quite literally just scratching the surface. Hydraulic fracturing reaches depths ranging from 5,000 feet to 20,000 feet
When oil and gas is extracted, the void is filled with water, which is a less effective insulator. This means more heat from the Earth's interior can be conducted to the surface, causing the land and the ocean to warm. We looked at warming trends in oil and gas-producing regions across the world.

This news will not go down well with a particular region at all.

Soon they will announce oil discovery in Sambisa forest.. see how Northerners are taking South for f0ols.

The one they wasted money to explore in Bauchi, we have not seen the operation till today, just mouth and claims from NNPC that there is oil.

Your 10 Masters, 15 PhD degrees are of no use if an ab0ki that isn't half as educated can play ping pong with your head. Southerners wake up!

ganisucks:
Wow. At this rate, NNPC will soon find oil on the moon. Bunch of ethnic insane liars!

i think u need a pain killer

Conner44:
How much oil was discovered? Is it in commercial quantity?

That’s the main koko . . .

Not that they saw just one bucket of oil 20,000 feet below the ground and started shouting that they have discovered oil

Clowns

at least you can't know this better than the people who will be spending money to drill it.

Think9ja:
Rubbish news.
There's no any oil in Nasarawa State. Even if there is, it's not in large deposits.
Nasarawa State weh everywhere na stone.

Look, this is a lie.

Before you mention me to type rubbish, I'm a native of Uke District, Karu LGA of Nasarawa State, but let's stop spreading lies.

Nasarawa no get oil.

Solid minerals? Yes, we do have it! Liquid minerals? Mba! We no get!

I know uke very well… I’ve been to the government school there

freemanq:
Can we go our separate ways now that the north have discovered oil plz

You are shouting separate ways, have you drawn the logical conclusion and see who will be on serious disadvantage here. The wisdom in true leadership is to forecast exactly the future, your people should better think of a way to run an inclusive or propose for a regional government.
North have practically everything needed for a smooth running of its state, Agriculture, natural minerals, recently oil and man power.
Your region better use and harness the wealth of Northern Nigeria to their advantage.
Forecasting from a logical point, other regions will depend fully on North in some good years to come, the northerners haven’t foresee this yet, but this is fact .
Keeping up with the separate ways ideology will simply cage your 3rd to 4th generation who will be in Biafra land .

NNPC scamming Nigerians since 1960.

Golan007:


What kind of stone is in Nasarawa?

Alright then, thank you very much

CheapHomes1:


Now that oil has been discovered in 3 northern states, will those states automatically become Dubai?

No, it doesn't change anything. That's why people should stop the "our oil " mentality. Discovering oil in a state with the present constitution of Nigeria, does not put even a cup of garri on the table of its indigenes

kristonium:


Now that they have finished plundering the oil in the South, they are now discovering oil in the North!

Interesting times ahead..

Relax, oil never finish plus they don't have gas

Scammers! Oil kee una dere

Urheadmaster:
Oils will be discovered in the whole of the 36 state eventually

Including Sambisa Forest

LOL

The SE has been existing for eons just like other regions.

What makes you think Biafra will not succeed if they go separate ways?

Every time north has this and that, the SE and other regions have this and that too

So many countries do not have what our individual regions have but are doing 500% more than all regions put together in nigeria

Make Una stop capping rubbish and die this careless talks

Racoon:
Nice development but coming @ a time crude oil is no more a reliable energy as many alternate energy sources have long been discovered e.g.production of biogas( e.g. Methane, Butane from faeces), conversion of light energy from solar panels etc.

They government promised to diversify from the oil dependent mono-economy but alas wasted huge chunk of scarce resources prospecting for an elusive but worthless crude oil in the global market. Guess they can now allow for a peaceful disintegration of this contraption called a country?

Don't be ignorant.

Oil will remain valuable for a century atleast..
I'm Africa for atleast 2 century

All the alternative source of energy will never completely replace oil and it's derivates..
Aside from burning the derivatives of oil for energy
A lot of petrochemicals and hydrocarbons come from oil sensitive ones that can't can't be replaced so easily...

If all cars go electric..I will like to see how you will electrically power a 200 passenger plane or run a container ship with PV cells and batteries.

There are also politics that can raise demands just like the covid 19 and Russia crisis did..

Roger3D:
The Northerners are quite smart. They're in a rush to discover black gold before some Southern leader comes to pour sand in their garri

Ma nigha

That is because they are not black people..

Show me a continent richer than Africa in resources ..
As far as Biafra is still ran by selfish blacks it has tendency to be much worse than Yemen .

It is evident today with how small IPOB and UGM is being handled by the region and of course the state of Abia state

Many dont see it as good news.
In nigeria oil is not blessing but curse.
Hardly anywhere in africa that have oil, that turn to raise of standard of living of people.
Money is misused.

Its oil that transform middle east countries.
But here, corruption has destroyed our country.
Primarily the generals ruined this country.

Urheadmaster:
Oils will be discovered in the whole of the 36 state eventually

But congratulate us first

Urheadmaster:

It's not possible. Geologically not all 36 states have the type of rock that produces and store this hydrocarbons.

It's mostly areas with marine and continental sedimentary rock formations.

North west is mostly hard rock.
North east is predominantly soft rock (sedimentary rocks) hence the discovery.

South east, south south and part of south west are also soft rock dominated.

Then north central is a mixture of both.

We have Niger basin in Niger state which also has potential, Benue trough also which north east happens to be an extension of the Benue trough, that's the upper Benue trough.

So you can see, you can't just go exploring for hydrocarbons everywhere in the country.

The geology of the state determines what and what can be found thr.

British will be like

Confirm location

Don’t mind the pained Ipobian racoon.

It will be nice if oil can be discovered in all the northern states.

Good development,but why excluding Benue,Plateau and Taraba states ? These states are highly blessed with all kinds of minerals,is there an underlying motive or it involves states lobbying for the exploration?

Wen did Nnpc become prospecting coy...just they play ooo

Obaofaba:
Good development....

Northern Nigeria to the world.

No more our oyel monopoly.

Patiently waiting for oil exploration in the North West.

North East and central has been represented.

I'm sure there's oil Bida, Niger State also.

Good news.

The North can now agree to the dissolution of this fraudulent contraption called Nigeria. Then the North can continue in it's banditry and blood shed

How is the present constitution the reason for the poor standard of living in oil producing areas in Nigeria?
