Benue, Nasarawa, Kogi, Plateau, Niger, Abuja and Kwara

By Dapo Akinrefon & Charles Kumolu

United Middle-Belt Youth Congress, UMYC, has demanded a separate identity for the people of the region to differentiate them from the Hausa-Fulani and Kanuri peoples of the far North.

Leading a delegation of executive officers of the congress on a courtesy call to Vanguard’s corporate office in Lagos, the group’s President, Mr. Abuka Onalo, said the people of the Middle-Belt were now remorseful of their roles in past actions of spearhea-ding Northern interests that did not benefit their people.

He particularly regretted the role of the Middle-Belt in the Nigerian civil war, saying the people of the region would not repeat the mistake.

He said: “We want the Middle-Belt people to be recognised and be referred to as Middle-Belt region. We want to be part of a new Nigeria where the Middle-Belt will be a federating unit.

“We likened our argument to the issue of true federalism. Since the South-South has been officially re-grouped as the Niger Delta region, we from the Middle-Belt should be grouped as the Middle-Belt region.

“We have never been subdued. We contributed in establishing the Federal Republic of Nigeria; we know what we suffered after the Civil War. There should be no reason why the nation cannot give us our own identity.”

In canvassing for identity, we are careful so that we do not destabilise what we helped in creating.”

The NNPC head has most recently made remarks hinting of possible commercial oil being found in the chad basin in northern Nigeria.

The Chad Basin 3D Prospect, also known as JV 109 is a Joint Venture Seismic operation between Integrated Data Service Limited (IDSL), a subsidiary of the Nigeria National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and the Bureau of Geophysical Prospecting (BGP), a subsidiary of Chinese National Petroleum Corporation (CNPC).


From my own little research, it is plausible that hydrocarbon might be found in Yobe or Borno state. Chad is landlocked, but they discovered significant reserves in this basin and checking the lake chad history, it favours deposition of hydrocarbon in these two states. Finding the (commercial) reservoirs is the challenge.

What do you think might be the implications if oil is found here?
Douse proponents of resource control or more agitations?
More political will for the PIB? Secession?


Have your say

Raiders:
people like you are enemy of Nigeria. Why don't all the different tribes unite whether yoruba, Igbo, hausa and other minorities we are all Nigeria and should unite to fight our common enemy

Buhari4dullard:
NIGERIANS PLEASE ALL NOTE THAT WE THE SOUTH-SOUTH STAND WITH OUR COUSINS THE SOUTH-EAST!

Raiders:
I'm not a yoruba. Igbos are Nigerians and will always be Nigerians. All you guys do is make noise on social media

Nawa4nl:
Your divide and rule ways are no more working.
We have woken up to the fact that we have nothing in common with the south-west!
So una dey fear, una suppose fear

Biafra, you don't need water again o, you go drink crude oil tire. I am sure that is why you're liaising with the south south

Fear dey catch you?
E suppose catch you, becos we'll have more money to round.
Fewer dead weights
All of us for South South don learn our lessons.

We own the land, the North owns the oil blocks.
And you expect us to be happy

kazuna:
No more OUR OYEL...This is a Blessing!

divide9ja:

The question is who appointed you to speak on behalf of us for what we want?

We want the Igbos and the Igbos want us.

Speak for your yoruba brothers!

As somebody said the hausa are your team players.

Lets us go with the Igbos, you hate us!

We have nothing in common with you.


We are leaving God willing

nuelzy:

divide9ja:

The question is Edo, Akwa Ibom, Urhobo and Itsekiri have to do with the rest of Nigeria?

ANSWER NOTHING !!!

omonnakoda:
Why must the Eboes always tie themselves to SS what is the link.
Once again Eboes are ALWAYS sentimental and reason like children. Even if Nigeria breaks up will you relocate the land? The biggest trading partner will still be Nigeria. Instead of introducing sentiment look at facts. This is not even just a YORUBA issue . Think about the INDIGENOUS people of Lagos. hey did not ask for Lagos to me a national hotspot where everyone comes in and drives up the price of Land so much that indigenous people lose their identity. We cannot say that is a non issue let us get on with one Nigeria. Other parts of Nigeria should develop their enclaves so we do not have migration on a scale that causes social problems this is human nature everywhere. We have seen it already in minority areas like Port Harcourt where the indigenous language is dead . No one learns it and no one speaks it. If you live in PH NO ONE will approach you on the street and speak Ikwerre to you. So we cannot encourage thousands of young men daily to migrae into Lagos that is a time bomb waiting to explode.
So all this Black mail of we are leaving is empty. No one will ever allow you take the SS and the Land mass of the SE cannot sustain Eboes some will always be in Nigeria that is the reality

By the way Boko Haram too want to leave and they seem more serious than you folk and the rest of the North Say Boko Haram are a minority. How do we know the Biafrans are any different . You are welcome to leave but demonstrate it is not a minority agitation. How get your Senators and governors to endorse it

MOSOP President / Spokesman, Dr. Goodluck Diigbo has alerted the world that Ogoni people will disengage its relationship with Nigeria in the event of another civil war targeting the natural wealth, especially sweet crude oil and natural gas deposits in Ogoni.

MOSOP – the Movement for the Survival of the Ogoni People was established by the entire Ogoni people to play the role of a cultural, nonpartisan, nonreligious apex organization of the Ogoni people. MOSOP has stood for rights and freedoms, and continues to protect the interest of Ogoni people all over the world.

Diigbo said Ogoni would embark on a journey to regain its sovereign independence violated by the British Empire in 1901; this will be non-negotiable; if by any mistake, there is another civil war aiming at Ogoni.

divide9ja:
With comments like this nobody can blame the South-East & South-South for thinking of leaving.
Really and truly Nigeria is the one pushing the South-East & South-South away.

the South-East & South-South will survive well, infact there will be more money to go round.

the South-East & South-South should realize that they are better off on their own as you can see what happens.

Even the mods here will tell you one Nigeria but the way they hate the South-East & South-South speaks volumes.

the South-East & South-South have the man power and brains to be on their own.
Its the North that can't survive on their own so they are scared of the South-East & South-South leaving.

I think with Lagos the South-West will do okay!

The North may go back to their groundnuts, but they will miss the oil they have been living off the South.

So the comments like this that are permitted makes leaving a better possibility and has been said

[size=15pt]ADEBOYE MAKES UP HIS OWN PROPHECIES [/size]


Nigerians in general have a lot of false prophets.
And Adeboye is coming out as one of them. We know TB Joshua to be another

Isn't it Adeboye of Redeemed that prophesied that there will be a new Sexual Transmitted Disease discovered this year 2016?
But this was already done late 2015.
So this is not prophecy but with fore knowledge.

The new STD called "Mycoplasma Genitalium" was discovered late last year 2015.

This year Adeboye added it as a prophecy for 2016 for what happened 2015

[size=14pt]Now for the Natural Disasters he spoke of, the whole of UK & America are suffering it from last year.
So how can this be prophecy?[/size]

See http://www.usatoday.com/story/weather/2015/12/27/severe-weather-tornadoes-texas-south/77939562/

Also major war he spoke of is with between Russia & the West over ISIS & Ukarine.
This is going on from 2015

So how can this man call them prophecies

WE CAN ALL SEE THAT ADEBOYE IS FAKING THESE THINGS[/size]

You can only blasphem God and not a human being.
This shows you that as Christians worship the ever living Jesus.
Moslems worship the dead and buried Mohammed.
