Symphony007: The niger delta militants and boko haram are different! The niger delta militants had a reason for what they did, they saw an injustice where their people were being explioted without any reward so they took up arms to defend their people. They did'nt purposely kill their people, they kidnapped for ransome and did'nt murder foreigners, that's why the west never saw them as an urgent threat.

Boko haram on the other hand are just stack murderers killing people in mass, raiding churches to kill worshippers for no reason and murdering foreign citizens.there shall be no amnesty for them and even if the nigerian government gives them western powers will still crush them for murdering thir citizens.

Symphony007: What bloody amnesty? Did boko haram give amnesty to the hundreds they have killed it? Did they give their farmilies and friends amnesty from the intense pain they felt and still fell? There shall be be no such amnesty! This murderers will get what they deserve and anyways for the fact they have started killing foreigners, drones will soon start raining on them so even if the nigerian government gives them amnesty, nato won't give them amnesty from drones.

frosbel: Amnesty for murderers ?

What is this world coming to !!!

gerald09: I disagree, comparing d Niger delta militant to Boko Haram is jt silly. The militant were fight for the good of its people, their land, waters are being polluted by dis oil companies, its jt common sense to give dem amnesty. But boko haram are fighting for there own selfish reasons, 2day dey demand Nigeria to be an islamic state, then dey want jonna to resign, again the don't want christens in dere states nw its about foreigners. GEJ is 100% correct hw do u give amnesty to people who donno what they want or who dey are, its jt orange and apples.
I will keep saying dis, for Nigerians not to allow the north rule is not tribalism, its jt common sense, until they come down dere high horses. If GEJ give amnesty to bunch of clueless, illiterates dat really don't understand what dey fighting for dat defeats the change he (GEJ) is trying to show Nigeria.

Costa2000: They should be paid for killing innocent christians,they have to come out like mend did so that we will see there faces.

Andyforte: Only a fool would agree that boko haram shared the same ideology or vision MEND. While MEND was protested the degradation and negligence of their land, boko haram, like the fools they will always be we're trying to Islamize Nigeria, ... While they were killing innocent Christians and stealing from banks. Pls u guys should just shut up.

Unknown Member: South tells the North to 'Shine our shoes'..





No Amnesty for killers..

chukwudi44: GEJ's security problems are induced by the north. We won't succumb to blackmail.You must be really dumb to think Buhari will win with his the bigoted comments he has made in the past.



You like Dayoanku are really ignorant about how things really work here.Elections are not won on state basis here but rather simple majority.A candidate can win most states and yet loose the elections.The populations of SS/SE people living in the Sw/NE/NW is not really commensurate with the population of Sw/NE/NW living in the SS/SE/MB that's why GEJ was able to get about 8m votes in the north while Buhari got 12m.That seems to me like 40% of the votes. Now how many percentage of votes could Buhari get in the SS/SE?

ifihearam: A0M4J
You banned me for 3daa whole me for abusing who abused my president abi?
Is GEJ not a parent?
Why don't you ban those that abuse him.

Well am here to inform you that the battle line has been drawn,is either you ban those insulting my president or you will keep banning me and my multiple accounts from this moment on.

all4naija: No! I mean difficult to read and quoting you back.

Its possible. just need extra effort on ur part.

Why must Northerners control Southerners recourses at all?

because current laws of the land allow such. It isnt out of place.

all4naija: ^^^^
You way of quoting is difficult to read. Well, it is clear Northerners are still in possession of those oil wells!

all4naija: ^^^
I can't leave Sarowiwa case out of the issue. It is an indication though.

i have no problem with that. he fought truly for injustice of his people suffering from environmental degradation in the hands of the poers that be. However current challenges arent that again. the bulk of the enviromental mess is sabotage. Shell is now much more responsible than before. besides the people are still making things difficult for themselves.

Those who have gave out most of the oil wells like IBB and Abacha have not been questioned.

and who is empowered to question (if need be) the one alive or members of govt of the dead one? is it me or the retardeen who is a ND

Those oil wells are still in the hands of those people. I don't know how the Niger-Delta people are in charge of the oil well as your claimed here.

lets even assume all these oil wells are in the hands of the Northerners, do u know its less than 10 percent of our total production? however its not. these oil wells are in the hands of all. Even the ones with the northerners, they will need appreciable southern collaborators to succeed in whatever they want to do here so what is ur problem?

If you mean the person in power(the president) is from that region,that is correct and is a different thing entirely.

no its not different. by virtue of the kind of democracy we practised, he is the alpha and omega. The powers that the president of Nigeria possesses in his federation is far more superior to what even obama possesses in his own union.

He is not controlling those oil wells as well not giving them back to the people. What he did is to make the resource allocation is just a little better, that is what I can see in all of these.

Give me one well-owner name that isnt loyal to the president? One name that wont abide by what the president demand? u obviously dont know the kind of powers he possesses no doubt. besides, most of these guys (north inclusive) who are into politics allign with the killer party which the retardeen heads.

It is clear the Northerners are still controlling these oil wells.

yes, northerners control some wells while southerners also control some. Above all, the south is in charge. that is what is clear here.

I would be very glad if GEJ can take back these oil wells from these illegal owners and turn them into state properties, as you refused to accept the obvious.

Give me one good reason why they are illegal owners? is it because they are northerners? Show me one part from our law books that these ones have violated? just show me something no matter how small that makes it illegal. Even the retardeen in his daft state wont see reason into that no doubt.

all4naija: First and foremost, that was a rhetorical question.

u qouted my post and asked a question, i answered and now u are declaring that its a rhetorical question? are u ok at all?

How are they controlling them when they are not receiving anything?

they are surely receiving, its just that it isnt twinkling down to the down trodden. even if the north is in control as stated by the senator, it will just be less than 10% of the total Nigerian production. the rest are in the control of the FG (retardeen, Madueke, Ngozi) and their JV or PSC partners who administer these wealth. the truth is they control the lion share.


You keep begging the question by putting it on edge just to rub innocent people with another man's crime.

what is the crime here and who is the innocent person?

Aren't Ken Sarowiwa case and the militant fighting evidences to that?

Abegii, with due respect to the death, his era is gone. A lot has happened after this. Stupendous wealth has come in to the region over the years and unfortunately has fallen to greedy arseholes who has deem it fit not to allow the most affected benefit. i wont be surprise if Sarowiwa is ashamed in his grave today. even those that fought afterwards, where are they today? evidence shows that they were indeed fighting for their pockets and not the people they claim they are fighting for.

What is your claim now when that is not actual the reality on ground?

The reality is the ND is currently in charge and they control the industry. Any other thing is noise to the ears. i expect them to make use of it isely doe the benefit of their people because very soon, it may be taken away from them.

Eziachi: I mentioned El Rufai, because you in particular agrees with every allegation he mades about Jonathan and his govt. Are you believing whim simply because of your dislike for Jonathan or because you knew for a fact that Rufai is right or making sense?
The reason you didn't believe this senator, is it because you think he is connected to this government, therefore he has to be wrong?

U are wrong and i demand an apology. Besides i seldom goes to threads as regards him. i agree with some and disagree with some. The rest of ur questions are irrelevant.

You should know that I am not a fan of any of this politicians no matter where they come from, but I do alway insist that people like Rufai or Ezekwesili should be proven wrong with a counter superior argument from GEJ fan club instead of shouting them down or calling them liars , that is exactly what I am doing in this case.

there are some declarations that dont even need a response and his issue fall into such. if a senator stands up in NASS and demand that the retardeen should be impeached because he is gay or some sort, will u still demand a counter argument from GEJ fan club that he isnt gay or some sort? every issue cant be lumped together. they really have to be looked into individually and decisions made on each cases. A man stood up without any evidence or even small instances that north is in charge of the pet industry under a govt headed by an ND man and u feel such is so? well, i dont think so. the declaration to me as K-leg.


If everything relating to GEJ has to be wrong to you and anything against him is right,

Thank u for once for the word IF. Everything relating to the retardeen isnt wrong to me.


your argument on issues can't be credible then because is bias, especially when I knew agree with you over many issues because it makes sense to me. I like people who say things the way they see is, not people that say things based on pre determined angle.

well the above isnt neccessary because everything about the retardeen isnt wrong to me.

all4naija: You are the person insinuating that. My statement is clear that if it were to be so it's rightfully theirs as to entitlement. It is clear you lacked comprehension and quick to conclude on a shallow mindedness.

ACM10: You just don't get it. The people chose a particular name. I think that is final and binding. Any alteration to the name is derogatory. Whether it is used officially or otherwise.

omonnakoda: So why does Achebe still write Ibo

what Achebe uses Ibo? Then its perfect for use then.

all4naija: And so what? It is their lands. Have they benefited from it since the Northern military dictators used the resources as personal properties? Please, get off this thread and go reason with your clear mind.

Eziachi: You don't have to agree with me.
I don't get you guys sometimes. Without the senator making those allegation, we both won't be talking about oil blocs now and some of the things I knew now, not mainly the names of person, I would never had known them.
So instead of you guys to concentrate on the issue raise, you start attacking and calling the guy name and then as things with Nigeria, the meat in the bone will be lost. If you thin he is wrong, why not publish the authentic or full names of all the oil block owner.

How can you call something baseless, when you haven't got a rebuttal figure, opinion to shame the senator?
Again, I am not saying that he is right, but let those that says that he is wrong tell us why with their own better and authentic list.

If the allegation is from El Rufai against Jonathan govt, you don't normally call it baseless, you just swallow it entirely, which means what you beleive is based on who is saying it and against who. And those now hailing the senator now, it will be their turn to cal Rufai names.

Eziachi: No you are wrong. Its the duty of those that oppose his claim to provide the full list to prove him wrong. The 83% in question is referring to the oil block to indigenous prospects, not the whole of Nigeria oil blocs. Can't you give read and digest things you read first?

pluto04: |What proof did the senator provide? I think he should provide the full list. That should not be very difficult. If 83% of the oil blocs are owned by the northerners, what percentage is owned by the Multinational oil companies?

thelastPope: So what on earth does that mean? Why write a rejoinder explaining volumes except you are a paid traitor? Who appointed him the defender of the north? Voltron! Don't the north have their own people who work in the oil industry? Don't the north have journalists and proffesors? The cheap backstabbing idiota has to be the one to do the dirty job! So they can say a southerner agrees with them! Kole kole! Always trying to mop up the dirt and filth! Animal!

DaLover: Have you ever wondered whey we are so unproductive and lazy?

There used to be a law that prevented people/companies from generating power...it was recently removed bt the GEJ administration....

DaLover: Yes ooo, it didnt take much time to get to insult level...
support fashola to fight for VAT generated in Lagos and support the FG to deprive people from the ND of their rights.

taharqa: NO. Plz read tru d article again. The ECA is a SUBSET of Foreign Reserves. She admittd that much in dis article. If we say that today that the Reserves is $48bn, we also mean that that is INCLUSIVE of almost $11bn in d ECA- you dont add d $11bn to $48bn and say d Reserves is $59bn. This was exactly d point sm of us hv bn trying to get across to FRUSTRATED 'SUBHUMANS' like @Demdem.... There was NEVER $67bn Reserves at any time. OBJ left a little above $45bn (ECA inclusives)

DaLover: maybe you do not understand me...what I am saying is that Enugu should not be exporting or exploring coal...there is a family, person or community that onws the lan where coal is located...they should be the ones doing that....
so it doesnt matter weather the political structure is eastern regonal gopvernment or enugu state government...the man exploiting the coal pays his taxes to his lga....and so on...
How simple can it get?

DaLover: so if i find gold in my compound...everybody should compete for it...an you dont have a fundamental problem with that...?
Your sense of justise is ok with that?

DaLover: What wrong with the states? what stops states from comming together to form an association?
even so, what has regoinal government got to do with a man tilling his farm or drilling an oil well in his land?

DaLover: whats wrong if we allow people to exploit their own resources and pay tax?
why must the FG manage oil, coal, or any mineral deposit?
Its really funny men...
