We do actually have detractors in the house. I believe your parents are still together otherwise your POV is quite understandable.

I have taken sometime to observe animals, the baby mama thing is equivalent to the role of the hen but we were supposed to be higher animals with some sophistication and decency right?

I am only saying there is a big deal with marriage and there is a bigger deal in terms of value raising your family together.

Ask your dad why he stayed married and revert to us.

PoliticsRe: Nigerians Stands With Buhari Pix . by ABEngine(m): 12:44pm On Oct 18, 2016
We should be clear enough to know whom we stand for, Buhari or his Social media team?

The only reason I stand with him today is obviously due to the inalienable fact that he is Mr.President and as patriotic citizens we are expected to support him, doing otherwise won't be of much help either.

Otherwise....

I still believe he will draw rabbits out of hats, if given another chance in "2015".

Never again should Nigerians overlook credentials, antecedents and apt deceit for promises.

As for now he remains Mr. President and I won't condone unacceptable remarks about him but will love to point towards the following:

In Buhari's composure,

Who is Aisha when he had proclaimed Nigerians thieves before the world.

Who is Aisha when the rights to equity and education was deprived the mean man who just needs to buy time with a masters degree abroad while awaiting the promised Jobs. "Those who can afford the dollar can afford it".

Who is Aisha when the integrity of the Judiciary in Nigeria has been dented following the actions of the Presidency in the ill lite of fighting corruption?

Who is Aisha when the the legislative arm has been dealt the same blow?

Women should see this as a wake up call, an affront to their rights to expression regardless of what circumstances one finds herself in. Her words were not properly guided but one could see to what extent her feeling were betrayed.

You don't touch a vipers tail and not expect the kiss of death.

Something tells me this is true. The ardent supporters of the Buhari led administration can make peace with this.

I believe given the capacity of his person, such persons cannot and should not hold him to vile ransom yet again, an ageing man needs support from those he thinks he trusts.

It happened to the GEJ administration where all plans were almost crippled to ensure the people revolt. It will happen again for their next political stooge to be enthroned.

Buhari is inevitably a gallant soldier but this sect are more determined than he is. Now the battle he has to fight is reassuring Nigerians regarding his cabinet and continue wallowing in their influence or institute a shakedown and face the fiery dance.
PoliticsRe: NNPC Discovers 21 Wells Full Of Prospects Of Oil In North by ABEngine(m): 8:53pm On Oct 12, 2016
ItsMeAboki:
Point has already been made: Nigeria cannot achieve energy security if its supply lines remain vulnerable to attack and sabotage by concentrating its source in one area (i.e. the ND) - which is akin to putting all its eggs in one basket.
Anyone with common sense would understand why it is therefore strategic to also diversify the source of such resource, so that the country may not be held to ransom like in the current situation that we have with the NDA or in event of war or disaster that may impact on our supply infrastructure.
Hope that is now simple enough for you.
1. Diversification you say, Agriculture is a more profitable investment if you ask any honest being with common sense. With bio extracts we can also support power generation and reduce our carbon footprint.

2. In lieu of the recent spate of attacks that have rendered the country vulnerable as you rightly noted, should we come to an accord on the fact that no region has exclusive rights or franchise to madness and as such, if prompted, such gory instances could equally repeat itself in the North East & Chad basin regions.

Let's not give ourselves justification for folly and cloaked bigotry. You and I know where these monies are best employed.

Nothing wrong with exploration, every normal country does that. It is not a Buhari idea, it's been on for decades and the money mentioned was spent over 30years. What is wrong is childish illiterate deception about meaningless prospects of oil. You either find oil or you don't. It's not a hope that it would later appear, that's rubbish. Existing reserves are not abandoned. Deal with facts and mention them.
This is an excerpt of the link posted below this comment

"Further, the acquisition of 3D seismic is helping to delineate oil prospects previously not identified. Gbaran field, for example, is estimated to hold approximately 500 million bbl of oil. The structure was previously thought to be a predominantly gas accumulation when discovered in 1967 and is probably an example of reinterpretation with better seismic data".

honeychild:
Bros talk true. If you were Buhari would you be spending more money developing prospects in the South? Right now the South is holding the whole country to ransom. The northerners have no choice. If they discover oil it's a win for everyone.
1. Either the North will be more amenable to resource control or splitting up as the case may be or

2. Even if we remain together we will rest from the economic terrorists in the Niger Delta.
My dear, your concerns have been duly deliberated and the outcomes were thus:

1. Nigeria is divided on tribal, religious and socio-political lines, we should not try to pretend about this and as such we are vulnerable.

2. The problems of the common men have little or nothing to do with the natural endowments of a geo-region. Oil wars are for the elites. We the commoners need electricty and some basic health facilties inclusive of a comprehensive health insurance scheme as privilieges of our so called "common wealth."

3. If Oil must be explored in the North, the question would be? At whose expense? The people are yet to benefit from that in the South and as such do not directly feel the impact of these resources.

4. A nation threatened by war, hunger and economic instabilities should have found an/some alternative(s) to quel these looming crisis. The answer is in Agriculture

Now to your question, if I were buhari, I will shift focus from Oil to Agriculture, develop the capacities of the large farming belts of the Nation while developing logistics to ensure assess to food is unrestricted.

We all know how desperate a hungry man can be. Thereby gaining on effectively cutting down societal vices and the rate of crime

Blue3k:
Wait hold on Bro. If this is true why waste time in northern region. Secondly if you know all this can you please tell me where in southern region these well are so we can invest. I don't get why more private oil exploration companies don't try.

I don't mind giving it a shot in future. You should aswell.
The major problem here is the uncertainties sorrounding such investments, the process of conversion from resources to reserve which is only favoured by improved oil prices and the huge capital investment that isnt favoured by policy bias at the moment.

A group of indigenous companies are doing same at the moment, most cannot attract foriegn investors due to the said reasons above.

But would have been a nice choice if only we chose to have the mining technologies with well funded research and development capacities in exchange for the black gold rather than depend on some industry experts.

ItsMeAboki:
The answer to your question is: Nigerian is money being used to develop the new found wells in the north just like Nigerian money was used to develop those in the south.
No! there is nothing imaginary about the oil find in the north except to those with literacy problems, who apparently cannot read the screaming headlines in front of them.
Yes, oil may now be losing its relevance but it doesn't meant it will completely lose its entire relevance even in the future.
That is why even oil rich countries like Saudi Arabia etc, with huge reserves have never stopped exploring for new finds to add to their strategic reserves and safeguard their energy security.
Read again and amuse yourself even more.

What do you understand by the following words; prospecting, uncertainty, economic quantity or volumes, oil price glut?

Do you know there are confirmed prospects in the south waiting development? Do you also know that our onshore and swamp wells are not beyond 13000fts ? Have you ever heard of deep reach wells?

If yes, why not develop a region with such potentials rather than wildcatting to the tune of $340 million and some billions of Naira.

That money can change alot in the power sector as well as boost the diversification agenda in Agriculture.

You actually sound learned but I urge you to remain so throughout this convo
PoliticsRe: NNPC Discovers 21 Wells Full Of Prospects Of Oil In North by ABEngine(m): 6:58pm On Oct 12, 2016
ItsMeAboki:
Its no brainer that oil is waiting to also be found in the Nigerian side of the Chad Basin since the same geology extends into its already oil producing neighbouring borders. Same also applies to the Benue trough and the Sokoto/Niger axis.
Very soon the north will also be swimming in its own oil and the real hateful parasites will be silenced for good - as they are already silenced by their visible absence from this thread.
My friend, it's no brainer that resources meant for prior capital developments and other national strides are used to prospect for oil in a part of the country while existing reserves are abandoned.

If you understand the word "Prospect", the large uncertainty surrounding same are heightened with the oil price glut, the pending confirmation of economical volumes for it to be declared a reserve and the insecurity in the region.

All this has infact confirmed that, it has always been about oil. Shame on you and your like minds. If this news be true, then, good luck to the Arewa Republic.

cococandy:
'Obey' 'disobey'.

your wife is not a child to demand obedience from. I have a hunch her attitude is a last ditch effort to retain some dignity since you are already treating her like a child.

Change. Engage her like an adult. Talk to her like your mate not your subordinate. I believe you will see some compromise from her.
Coming from a lady, this is utterly abysmal, especially one whom is intended to give the teeming readers a soft landing as to the reasons why a lady might be out rightly adamant to a plea.

However nnamdi said it all, and I have just one point to add to his.

One more thing most men do is create a sort of communication barrier in an instantaneous feat of disappointment, disapproval or rage thereby leaving no options for the lady to get to us with an apology.

Oftentimes she may want to apologize but will be met by the heavy ambience of this sort of energy exuded and like I have noticed, the longer the duration of this energy; the farther away an apology gets.

I think if this is the case, being outspoken with selectively mild words and affectionate contacts will result in a quicker apologies. Timing is also of essence.

If you sincerely desire a honest input I would advise they part ways.

Get me right, you don't have to mortgage the health of the unborn for the sake of love and faith. This issue is not one to gamble with even if you can handle the costs associated therein.

If conclusive tests have found both partners to be carriers then such a union is not a worthwhile venture.

I am speaking from the point of view of one sympathetic to the sickle cell cause and having lost one at infancy whilst having another still living is similar to walking blind on mine fields.

They both have to understand this quite clearly if they choose to continue with the relationship. It is not a matter of chromosomes, infact it's not an equivalent of selecting the sex of the child.

I can't express the trauma we all go through during a bout of crisis, you don't even need to imagine how difficult it is to obtain screened blood or donors nor the pains accompanying the body's readjustment to a successful transfusion.

I warn sternly about this. God can do all things but kindly don't tempt Him.
