Why are these Yoruba parasites trolling this thread? I support the statement by the Bayelsa speaker. A Yoruba muslim organization, calling for the removal of GEJ while at the same time using OUR money to fund the birthday of their criminal maximum leader. I can't really understand these people, check the other thread. The oyel money was delayed by a few days and these clowns promptly shat in their pants. Can you imagine how disgusting it sounds for these people to open their stinking mouths to tell us that "oyel belongs us all". These ofomanu, efulefu, koni da fun iya la ya e. How parasitic can you be? I understand the case of the northerners, animals don't know any better and so I expect them to keep barking like the mad dogs that they are.

LeoMax: Why are yeriba people so tribal and full of hate for every sitting president. I keep wondering, from OBJ to Yaradua and to GEJ

What a m0r0n. You claimed Yorubas hate OBJ yet still claims they are tribal.

Telling a president to resign an insult. I thought the constitution allows it. The ijaws expect jonathan to be treated like a tin god that must never be criticize or condemed well may be they dont know he is a nigerian president and not ijaw president. A party from any region can criticize him, rather he should understand the laws of the land and stop is gaffes and starts speaking like a nature president and not like a confused man.

Lord have mercy!! This President either by act or design or both is the most divisive President since the coming of this unholy Union call Nigeria. He will utter nonsense, and when rebuffed, will rather sit back and watch his tribesmen spew nonsense to defend his gaffe. They use religion, tribe and oil to blackmail every other part of the country. Now I know why the minority should NEVER be allowed to be at the driver seat in Nigeria again post 2015.

U forgot that the same cocoa, and groundnut money in sw is used to exploit oil.. U must be so blind. Do u think south west is a desert like north? go to israel..

I wish the Ijaw nation will rechannel their energy towards asking the president to develop ijaw lands. I wish they will demand their land be develop to at least abuja standard,their roads schools and hospital be transformed to international standard during this tenor. these are the type of demands i expect. please my brothers lets demand for Leadership and this can only be achieved when you challange them.

musiwa.,:
warri is own by itsekiri people, you can see their yoruba names.


I don't know what you trying to say here (but I think I suspect where you are going with you allusions). I follow dodge bullet in the 90's for Warri during the tribal wars. I'm not an expert on these matters and the ownership of Warri is in dispute but methinks it's owned by Ijaw (Ogbe-Ijoh etc), Urhobo (Okere-Urhobo, Agbasa etc) and Itsekiri (Okere,etc). The areas known as Warri town itself doesn't have any oilfields, most of the oil being in the creeks.

However, I know for a fact that there is a lot of oil in Urhobo, Isoko and Kwale land in Delta state. When you combine this with the oil in Ijaw land (Focados, Ogulaha etc are all Ijaw) both onshore and offshore, then I don’t know how you can claim that most of the oil in Delta state is in Itsekiri land?!

There is nothing impeachable about what the President did,he does not benefit directly from this contract. However there is nothing wrong with the opposition pointing out the president goofed when he openly tried to suggest he request for the renovation when he knows that will bring on a conflict of interest issue.thats the beauty of democaracy my friends.

Isn't Jonathan the greatest expression of insult on any nation? He has continually portrayed the ijaws as a bunch of people of doubtful academic credentials and masters of impolitic actions and utterances. Free CAN please.

I wish somebody will explain to these people, the difference between "OUR PRESIDENT" and "THEIR SON". We have a right to criticize our president whenever he does something wrong but these people keep on blackmailing us reducing our dissatisfaction to an attack on ijaw, an attack on niger delta, an attack on south south or even in recent example, an attack on christianity. We have never been this divided in this country. What people are saying is that soliciting for and receiving favour from a government contractor amounts to an unethical conduct that is likely to influence the decision of mr. president in his official relationship with the said contractor. The constitution is very clear on it. Whether the favour received is a church, mosque, school or even hospital. It does not matter.
Remember the last time we expressed dissatisfaction with removal of fuel subsidy, it was immediately interpreted as an attack on ijaw, niger delta and south south when in fact the president got more total votes in other regions than even the south south. we definately can not continue like these. This devisive tactics must stop.

shymmex:

The spam bot banned me before but I'm back now. Bayelsea state produces less than 10% of Nigeria's oil wealth. What was posted on the Bayelsea state website is pure fallacy.

As for Delta state, 90% of the oil produced in Delta state are produced in Itsekiri and Ilaje land - Ijaw land only produces 10% of the oil wealth there.

The biggest oil producers in Nigeria by state are:

- Rivers.
- Akwa Ibom.
- Delta.



- Bayelsa is a distant 4th.



Most Nigerians are inherent mor0ns and denials of intensive tribalism. I suggest you go back to the map that depicts the activities of crude oil exploration in southern Nigeria, Mr. Detribalized. The map clearly shows the distance from last crude oil in Abia State to Uyo, not to mention the majority of acreage of state, which is capital of Akwa Ibom state, is vast land of no crude oil activity. The map also shows that Imo State and almost Abia State were completely overshadowed with the sketch of crude oil activities in southern Nigeria. Baring the erroneous inclusion of offshore crude oil production to certain states, Rivers, Delta, Imo and Abia are largest crude oil producing states in Nigeria.

I guess the fear of Ndigbo is driving many Nigerians into the hall of irredeemable stupidity.

The only option for gej will be when progressives like Pat Utomi,Wole Soyinka,and co takes the batons,then we can finally say we have alternatives.But until then,gej remains the best of the failed generation and idealogy.

ijaw do not own warri, when they call a place Ogbe-Ijoh what it means is that , this is the place where the ijaw immigrate live or ijaw quarter. that is the meaning.. of Ogbe-Ijoh. it is a name to show they are immigrate. when they say Ogbe-Ibo. it means a place where ibo immigrate live. ijaw do not own warri.

this ijaw immigrated from a place in byelsa state around apoi or river nun. we also call them ijaw apoi.

@ Shymmex and co, I don't blame you. If not that Seun is an outstanding Yorubaman with his idea of Nairaland, I would have known what to tell you. However, you speak like a very myopic, uneducated, silly opportunist who thinks Naija is all about Lagos. Simple geography we all started learning from SS 1, you still don't know at this age. Well, if the Ijaw youths had insisted that all the oil companies operating within their land should move their head offices from Lagos to the State where they have the greatest operations, I don't think you would have had anything to say, but fortunately for you, they (the Ijaws) didn't.

The Ijaws are not as cowardly as the Yorubas. If you doubt that, just go to Ajegunle in your Yoruba Lagos and ask about what the Ijaws did to the Yorubas some years back.

One evidence that points to the quantity of oil produced by each state can be seen in the monthly Tell magazines where they publish Revenue shared by the Federal Government every month. Please, check the column for 13% Derivation to get some education you are obviously lacking.

It hurts and irks so much when you sincerely contribute so much to a nation's coffers to enhance development and gets so little, while some people who thrives on their laziness in the name of professorship and high-learnedness and achieves nothing but mud houses and squealing poverty (Ekiti for instance) make some noise and talk rubbish on an internet forum. For once, let me ask: WHAT ARE THE YORUBA PEOPLE CONTRIBUTING TO THE REVENUE GENERATED BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT? I beg and wait for an answer. Seun, if you like ban me. That buffoon, Shymmex or whatever has touch something he dared not even look at.

Well said. This casual recourse to clannishness and ethnic jingoism , every time GEJ is criticised, is very disturbing to say the least. It has divided this nation badly and many powerbroker will be silently acknowledging that they made a grave mistake with GEJ and that Nigeria does not need this sort of headache in future . All I see is a section of the country displaying a shocking preference for heating up the polity with intolerance and ethnocentric bellicosity.

My brother you can forget these tribalists, many of them don't even know what their talking about! I can list hundreds of fields that I have worked on and >80% of them are on Ijaw land. Actually all of Shell's billion barrel fields (except offshore Bonga) are actually on Ijaw land. As for those who keep shouting about Lagos IGR, it would surprise you to note that Lagos has over 100 viable tax paying companies and a friend who works in Chevron once told me that Chevron alone pays over N800m in taxes every month to lagos statement govt! Just imagine what the total amount would be when you add what the other oil companies pay. This was the reason why there was so much anger when NLNG was asked to relocate.
