Congratulations to sokoto state on this oil discovery. Sokoto state ought to have been drilling hydrocarbon by now. Since libya land has crude oil definitely sokoto state which is desert areas ought to have been producing oil too.

It's not an oil discovery but rather an exploration to map out the regional geology and the the prospect of the presence of hydrocarbons. This is a necessary step before drilling; which is the only way to prove (discover) oil.
I hope they find "something" though.

...Meanwhile Edo and Delta state governors are laying about.
