OAMMB:
I can tell u one thing for free...I'm an engineer and I'm fortunate to work in the oil and gas industry. I have worked on onshore facility amongst the community and I can say without being biased or tribalistic....most of these south side men are the laziest men I have ever seen. Their women will go to the farm while they sit outside drink, play ludo , sleep around with small girls from the money they collect from oil and gas firms or the money their wives make.

Very sad. And you wonder why investors are sidestepping the region even with their oil wealth... You just can't do too much with lazy, unskilled and uneducated workforce.

The question is, what happened to their taxes and llocations, derivations, NDDC yearly billions?

omenka:
Bro is this a feature film or a documentary?? Wanna know so I can download right now. About to go into a place with limited network coverage.

Both. It shows what's going on in Nigeria's oil industry from corruption to oil theft, pipeline and environmental destruction against Ghana's New oil challenges..

OAMMB:
you see why he was clueless?

Sounds more like a kickback scheme. Pay their people do the dirty work, give them billions worth of contract to protect, to blow up, to repair and to clean up and get their own kickback.

This is how you loot without getting your hands dirty, it's called indirect looting and stealing.

The man really wasn't clueless when it comes to scams, looting and stealing.

Baba no send anybody....Gotta love this man...

And this is not even part of the ten of millions of dollars Jona was paying Tompolo to secure the same pipelines...


They take billions to protect the pipelines and then turn around and blow up the same pipelines to secure contracts to blow up the same pipelines we pay them to secure..

^^^^^^^^^ Movie.

The politicians in the creek hire their own youths to blow up the pipelines just to secure repair contracts from their crooked cronies and collaborators in Abuja


This is where all the pipeline repair billions and missing funds dezani was talking about went. To their cronies and criminal gangs in the creeks...


Very eye opening.

You reap what you sow......

Super story by worthless and incompetent Clowns and comedians...

Chidiebele Samuel

Writes from Enugu


Got to be a biafran..

All your doom and gloom wishes, back to sender..

Worthless Enemies of Nigeria..

Sanity, friendship and togetherness returning back to the land...


Better days ahead.

After six years of jona son of the land who refused to improve the lives of his own people and 16 years of worthless, corrupt and incompetent pdp, we now have sanity and a competent and responsible government looking out for Nigerians.

Very wonderful time to be a proud Nigerian.

For the clueless tribal ones in this thread, as long as Lagos remains peaceful, safe and secure with the best and largest concentration or skilled and educated labor in Nigeria while you kidnap and blow things up, you can not stop investors from heading to Lagos.

OPCNAIRALAND:
The primary input in a decision to diversify the shipyard operations is security risks in the Niger Delta. The area remains volative and threat to uninterrupted operations.
To prove the decision makers right, Niger Delta (Ijaw Youths) issued threats to disrupt operations.

This will convince even friends of Niger Delta to stand down and agree with the decision to build another shipyard as redundancy against stoppage and damages resulting from Ijaw threats and attacks.

The number 1 requirement and consideration when investing or sitting any investment in any location on the surface of the earth is safety, security and conducive environment for the project to thrive and be successful.

You can not be in one breath asking investors to invest in your backyard while in another breath threatening violence and destruction over everything you disagree with.

They have to work on their approach and negative impressions of violence, kidnappings and blowing things up.

This is leadership failure on the part of the leaders in thaat region, they should be using their influence at the local and federal level to reach out and conert investments instead of sending their youths out their to disrupt, destroy, kidnap people and blow things up just to get their way.

Where are the leaders? Where are the governors, reps and senators? Why are they not out there speaking up against this decision?

Fact is, they are very well fed and they care less about any project or investment.

These are misguided youths, they should be going after their own leaders for not fighting and looking out for them instead of promoting violence, disruption and scaring away investors.

lol at we should move closer to Russia and China...

Backwardness is your portion, not ours..

Project student: Its 0.96 sir

Project supervisor: its obvious you didn't do the regression for this project, please leave my office
The problem with most students is that they are so lazy and would rather lift someone's work without fully understanding it

I don't debate unintelligent trolls in trolling mode...

Get back when you have something intelligent to contribute which I know you are not capable of doing...

barcanista:
The function of DSS as defined by Section 2, sub-section 3 of the National Security Agencies Act, Cap. 74, 2004, is limited to crimes, actions that bothers on the internal security of the country such ie counter terrorism and counter insurgents (eg Boko Haram). Naturally, one expects the DSS under this administration to be more focussed on intelligence gathering, assist the military to end BH, apprehend masterminds of bombings, and fish out sect sponsors. Sadly, the DSS seem to be interested in playing the roles of other agencies(listed below) while neglecting theirs.

1. Playing The EFCC Role:
The EFCC was created to pursue, investigate and prosecute Economic and Financial crimes. However, the press conference by DSS after the search on Dasuki Sambo's house showed that the DSS is so much interested in EFCC's role.


2. Playing The Role of The Army HQ.
It is the duty of the Army to determine who deserves army guards as well as when to withdraw the army guards. However, the DSS seem to be crying more than the bereaved.


3. Playing The Role of Department of Petroleum Resources:
The DPR is statutorily mandated to monitor marketers to ensure that they don't take advantage of consumers of PMS and other products. But a Vanguard report suggest that DSS is the new sheriff in town.

www.vanguardngr.com/2015/07/breaking-news-pump-price-hike-dss-takes-over-monitoring-of-fuel-distribution/

4. Playing The Role of Election Tribunal/Court:
When it comes to election matters, the tribunals/courts determines who wins and who loses, who rigged and who didn't, and who commits so-so offence. But the DSS is clearly interested in the job.

www.nigeriapoliticsonline.com/rigging-allegation-inec-boss-arrested-over-akwa-ibom-poll/

The Akwa Ibom REC was reported to have spent 13 days under the torture of DSS. It was also reported that the DSS invited and detained the INEC REC of Rivers state.

5. Playing The Role of The Police:
The Police is primarily mandated to ensure that there is no breakdown of law and order within Nigeria. However, the DSS is shown interest in their(Police) role when they(DSS) went to PDP National Secretarial in Abuja yesterday.

http://www.vanguardngr.com/2015/08/sss-storms-pdp-national-secretariat/

It is important to note that the DSS is yet to parade ANY Boko Haram suspect nor announce any grounding breaking operation with respect to the war against insurgents since May 29, 2015. We hope that the DSS will revert to their mandate and allow others do theirs especially at this time when their expertise is needed the most in the fight against terrorism.


May God Bless Us All

Weda you or my bingo, I no sabi who dey wail pass....


Wailing is indeed a terrible affliction...

hinwazaka:
There are senators on both sides of the divide who have signed up on the Iranian nuclear deal, but still John Kerry is still begging.

The same judiciary committee on both sides of the divide that placed the restriction on Nigeria are the same folks in Nigeria to let us know that they are removing the restriction.

There's already an agreement with both sides of the divide to remove the restriction hence both sides of the divide leaving their comfortable offices in the US to let us know that they are doing the needful.

Keep quiet and stop contradicting yourself and and falling all over your own poor understanding of the US.


1. First it was Obama instead of the US congress

2. After discrediting your flaws, you latched on top trade

3. After discrediting your trade nonsense, you latched on to Iran nuclear deal?

What's your next rubbish is going to be?

What's Iran Nuclear deal with the major world powers and not just the US got to do with Nigeria and the Judiciary committee..?

[s]blackmailing and hurling cheap insults at capitol hill to push the house to agree on it. Go and learn how true parliamentarians work so you will understand what I am trying to pass across to you. Peddling insults will not prove your point Mr Aresa/ Mrmetoo[/quote][/s]



Spend more time educating yourself instead of spewing ignorant trash on the internet..

Obijulius:
Deviating from the elitist and isolationist philosophies of the APC, Mr. Ambode is fast gaining prominence as a socialist who understands the diverse and yet unique needs of a multi-cultural city like Lagos.

I love the policies I see him implementing so far and I must say this is a man who desires to unite all.

I am impressed by this move.

Bravo Governor.

LASEPA carried out the same operation times uncountable under the previous administration so what's the difference here?

Only the elites drive on the roads and bridges built by the previous governor? Only the elites sends their kids to the schools built by the previous governor? Only the elites attend the 30 skills centers built by the previous governor? Only the elites live in the countless housing estates built by the previous governor? Only the elites drink water from the 15 water works built by the previous governor?


Sometimes I wonder why many of you come up with these ridiculous and absurd claims and assertions..

hinwazaka:
So you punch in for your job at 10pm and then punch out at noon the following day.
So you don't know that all dictates of the day at capitol hill will require the influence of whoever is sponsoring it. Or you think what ever a chairman of any committee suggests is immediately law.

The United State of America has begun the process of lifting its restriction on the sale of military equipment to Nigeria to fight Boko Haram terrorists.

US lawmaker Darrel Issah made this known while fielding questions from journalists after meeting with Nigeria military Service Chiefs in Abuja yesterday.

Issah led a delegation of the US Congress Judicial Committee in a closed door meeting with the security chiefs at the National Defence College (NDC).

Stop confusing yourself and sounding ignorant with your bogus understanding of the US/Congress, the US Judiciary committee placed the arms restriction on Nigeria in the first place and it's the same US judiciary committee now in Nigeria led by this powerful republican to specifically say to us that his government and committee are removing the restrictions. This is something they could have done or said back in the US instead of leading a whole US congressional delegation to Nigeria to meet with our government officials, service chiefs and governors.


The US Judiciary committee placed the restriction and not any trade committee or whatever ignorant rubbish you are peddling...

hinwazaka:
So Mr Darrel is chairperson of Appropriations, armed services, energy and commerce, ethics , foreign affairs along with his handling of the house committee on oversight and reform. Learn to take things with a pinch of salt when they are said by politicians

I'm not taking anything with a pinch of salt simply because the congressman especially American public officials don't make bogus US policy statements when on foreign soil. He specifically said the process is ongoing to remove the restrictions on arms supply to Nigeria.
First you insinuated that the statement was made by Obama instead of the congress, but after exposing the flaws in your argument, you then girated and latch on to trade when in fact it has nothing to do with trade, so what's your next argument going to be?

This is not a single or nobody congressman talking, this is a powerful bipartisan congressional delegation?

What exactly do you think powerful mixture of Republican and Democrat congressmen and women are doing in Nigeria?" You think they are here on vacation to enjoy the weather in Nigeria?

They are here on behalf of the US and Obama himself to strengthen our relationship hence saying that they are already removing the arms restrictions..

Learn how to keep quiet if you have nothing better to talk about instead of peddling ignorant and bogus argument.

This is the same Republican congressman from California with Democrat Sheila Jackson from Texas. Republicans and democrat congress folks don't travel or mingle together just for fun, they are here to make friends and cater to our needs.

ocelot2006:
OF COURSE HE BUILT MORE POWER STATIONS DIMWIT!

He did, but you just can't show us when and how he awarded the contract right? So, who is the dimmwit your dumb assxs lair... Obviously, you are..

I just listed them for you! Christ, did you forget your expired grey matter or something?

Olodo, you did not list anything, those were initiated by OBJ and OBJ awarded the contracts.

GEJ did not build, approve or awarded any contract for any phase 2 projects and if you think he did, show us any documented proof that he did.


[s]What's the next lie you're going to spew here, idiota? Think whatever you want in that coconut water head of yours, but its on RECORD that GOODLUCK EBELE JONATHAN achieved FAR MORE in the power sector than his predecessors COMBINED, POWER STATIONS INCLUDED. if you don't like that, go jump of 3rd Mainland Bridge OR kill yourself. USELESS Arrow.
[/s]


And that's garbage, Nigerians booted him out of office because he did not achieve anything, he was crooked, corrupt and incompetent.

Good riddance to bad rubbish...

hinwazaka:
I do know Mr Darrel issa is the chairman of the house committee on oversight and government reform. I also know he is a Republican, and that he is the only committee chairman that is allowed to submit subpoenas without committee voting. I also know that he is vehemently against the Iran nuclear deal but the fact is neither him nor his subcommittees are in charge of debates on trade. They only handle the investigations, not debate on who meets their requirements for TRADE.

What's this got to do with trade? This is not a trade embargo, this is a US government policy decision that has nothing to do with trade? What kind of rubbish and ignorant talk is this?

hinwazaka:
Such a precarious situation as the removal of a country from the list of nations barred from arms trade agreement with the US will be debated by congressmen on capitol hill. The committee on the hill in charge of security would discuss and debate on if we have met the conditions necessary to strike our name of the list. It is not a decision left solely to the whitehouse. We would have to begin processes that would show we are no more going to engage in practices that are against NATO laws. The US is not run by Obama alone

United States congressman Darrel Issah says the US government has already “begun the process” of relaxing or completely lifting the restriction on military assistance imposed on Nigeria under the Leahy Law.

The Leahy Law is a US human rights law that prohibits the US department of state and department of defence from providing military assistance to foreign military units that allegedly violate human rights with impunity.

Issah dropped the hint while fielding questions from journalists shortly after meeting with service chiefs and officials of the ministry of defence in Abuja on Monday.

He said the development was occasioned by the policy of the new military command with regards to the ongoing military operations in the country.

“There were a number of things that were discussed at the meeting but basically the need for additional technical support including overhead surveillance,” he said.

“This was discussed because it is important in the fight against Boko Haram. This is because of the trust in the new regime, which has begun the process of ensuring that the military’s professionalism in the battlefield is made in a way that we all can be confident that the rule of law is followed.

“Following this development, we have begun the process of lifting restriction under the Leahy Law but the vast majority of the support US provides will be given regardless of the restrictions.”

Issah said the US will provide other forms of support that will not only boost the military’s capabilities but will also create the environment to rebuild devastated communities.

He said the US, through its agencies in Nigeria, will help rebuild and rehabilitate communities and victims of insurgency in the northeast.

“We are looking forward to working with the president and the military to rebuild the confidence of the people of Nigeria in the professionalism of the military,” he said.

“To make the military something that the people will rely on as the nation tries to clear insurgents and protect the civilians; that is important to the new president of Nigeria, our president and it is also important to the congress.

“But we are looking forward to a great difference in the relationship, a proactive relationship and one in which we can provide a greater level of support.”

On his part, the permanent secretary, ministry of defence, Ismaila Aliyu, described the visit as a sign of the renewed confidence in Nigeria’s military on the global scene.

He said Nigeria now enjoys a greater level of confidence and trust in the international community, saying that it would impact positively on the nation’s efforts in repositioning its economy.

“The US. believes in Nigeria, they have trust and confidence in Nigeria, that is why they are here,” he said.

“On the issue of human rights, the US is pleased with what we have been doing in recent times to address the gaps that may have existed in the past.

“This visit is a follow up to Mr President’s visit to the US. We have said it and will continue to state that the visit was of great benefit to Nigeria; it has rekindled confidence in the relations between the two countries.”

Issah led a delegation from the US congress judicial committee to the meeting with Nigeria’s top ranking defence officials.

Other issues that dominated discussions between officials of the two countries include justice reforms and support for devastated communities.

You are sitting here thinking this is a proclamation from Obama, this is a proclamation by the same US congress.

This is a congressional delegation representing the US government and led by a powerful congressman, not Obama.

chetaobi:
The economy is in a dangerous situation right now. The Naira is falling down in an aggressive manner and we have some stupid individuals opening their damn mouths wide in every direction telling us rubbish. Oshiomhole had an expensive wedding to an Ethiopian lady, using state funds to run it. His wife traveled with him to the US. in fact, he was the only governor that had his wife with him, and she was exposing her body for all of us to see. And chatterbox is telling us that a minister stole $6billion USD. Na today e start?! If Buhari wants to tackle corruption, he needs to go back to 1960, and start an audit of all our income and expenses till date, then he is serious about fighting corruption!

Oshiomhole should govern Edo People and stop being a damn clown! Let them allow the EFCC and the ICPC to their jobs.

This is when you look for the nearest lagoon and take a plunge. .

You still remain a class A BUFFOON. Did I claim that GEJ inititiated NIPP? READ MY DAMN LIST, FOOL!! Did you not see "PHASE 2"? And apart from Oloroshogbo Power Plant and maybe 2-3 more plants, list LIST MORE that OBJ executed. Most of the plants you listed were on the drawing board but NEVER EVER reached execution stage in OBJ's 8 FVCKING YEARS in office. LOOK AT THE DAMN DATES, slowpoke!

Useless fvcktard.

ocelot2006:


Maybe because GEJ:

Built and commissioned FAR MORE power stations than his predecessors COMBINED

Fixed and expanded existing power stations

Ensured adequate gas supply via the GAS REVOLUTION that saw the construction and expansion of the MASSIVE gas delivery system

Upgraded and expanded the transmission grid, building far more substations and stringing new power lines

Responsible for massive distribution of of step down transformers initially held up at ports and PHCN offices

Built new distribution substations across the federation

Unbundled PHCN and sold it off, allowing for private sector participation

Outsourced TCN to major Canadian Utility Firm

Dumb and idiotic ignorant village lair...


You said GEJ built and commissioned FAR MORE power stations than his predecessors COMBINED, but you are yet to show us exactly when he awarded the contract for the so call many power plants.

Where is the list of the power plants he built? Where are they?

Are you too scared to show us how and when Jona awarded the contracts for the power plants since they were all on the drawing board?


Try come back with another ignorant and unintelligent lie you loser...
