get some mend boys to kidnap some shell drilling staff and have them do the testing for you!

I  want to thank everyone who gave their advice here, both the serious ones and the naughty ones. To those dream killaz out there, I want to tell you to keep your mouth shut if you don't  have useful advice to give & all you jokers out there please don't take every thing in life as a joke or else your life will become one huge joke. When the Wright brothers first had the dream to invent the aeroplane,  people almost killed their dream saying the airspace is for the birds & man has no business there. When  Asu Ekiye wanted to sing the songs in his first album, a friend told him that  '' o boy this modern day na you wan go sing traditional music? dem go pour you kolo oooo'' But today He is a big boy with several international awards. Have you ever heard of  dogged determination'  that is what I have. I believe my dreams don't have to make sense to every body.  When I succeed, I will surely share my testimony here or maybe you guys will read my story in a national newspaper or magazine or better still watch me tell the story on T V.

But thats not fair the law needs to be changed!!!! much as i dont see this happening, i want to believe the poster,

@ poster!

I believe you and like your determination, you might be very correct just that you might not live to see this dream come true and even if the government takes over the land, atleast you die knowing you where right afterall, i dont know nothing about soil testing, i think u can take a sample of the soil to an oil company or something, they could test that to see the potentials?, u never know, keep ur dream alive!

where do we meet so we can talk about that in person??

very funny!

Bros wisyno[b][/b] U don test the land? U never find oil?
I dey feel U oo!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Your case reminds me of a story I use to know while in primary school. A father died leaving only a piece of land for his surving children. He appered to one of them in dream and told them that underneath that vast piece of estate lie great wealth which they will find upon digging it. The children thus set set and dug the whole expanse of land looking for the riches that were hidden beneath it. They dug every acre of the land and couldn't find any treasure hidden under by their father nor any precious mineral wealth. They were frustrated and angry. When an old man passing by learnt of their fate, he advised them to plant seeds in the ploughed earth. They heeded his advice and a year later got a bountiful harvest from the land. You too can learn from the moral of this story.

@OP

I have the info you need. It's not too late.

I can vouch for you that if you take the steps needed you will extract the oil you find.

Selling it is another set of processes.

All you need is a viable lawyer who would help you wrest the hand possession off the govt.
