So the oil is yours abi?

AgentOrange:
You can still lay claim to the offashore oil because Nigeria is still one.

If Nigeria breaks today the oil offshore will belong to the country with the waterline.

This picture does not prove anything!!! Is the speaker not entiled to a guest house or what

DropShot:
Read the news again!

The report is very specific to Kaduna for now. But it will surely spread across the country.

Don't be a pessimist!

PapaBrowne:
The hate you spill would eat you up. You love the oil but hate the creeks.

FYI, criminals have operated that Arepo and Ikorodu axis for ages bunkering crude. They might be from the Niger Delta or not, I don't know. But those guys are criminals. They are very different from the Niger Delta Avengers are blowing pipeline in the creeks of the Niger Delta.

To assume that destroying the criminal elements in Lagos is equivalent to tackling the new militancy in the ND is foolishness
that only your likes can display.

A wiser approach till tommorow is to discuss Nigeria. Ask ourselves what would work, how it should work and why we should all make it work. The superior argument would carry the day. The stupid assumption that you can just run rough shod over people could work in the days before the internet. In these days the tools of power are right in the hands of the people and I don't mean it literally. The phone is more powerful today than 10,000 propaganda TV stations.

PapaBrowne:
You would realise soonest that the man dropping those bombs doesn't care nothing for you.

And I'm very afraid that of all places to start a war, the old man choose Lagos-the booming capital of Nigeria.

I support the ridding of pipeline criminals or whatsoever out of the Lagos waterways, they have no business there in the first place.

However, it would be foolhardy to assume that the "drop bomb" strategy would work in the Niger Delta creeks.

First, the topography of the creeks are beautifully crafted to prevent the uninitiated whether via Air Land or Sea. Imagine 1000 rivers covered with mangrove trees all connecting with each other and meandering snakingly leading to nowhere.
Via Air, its impossible to detect activity as the Mangroves provide cover. Via Land, the swampy terrain makes it impossible to utilize conventional tanks. And via SEA, you are faced with the difficulty of the Snaky rivers as you cannot see whats in front of you.

If you've ever been in the creeks, you'd understand why America lost the Vietnam War. A wise man would avoid a fight with fishes in the river.


It is easier to restructure Nigeria in a way it would work for everybody than take on a fight that would destroy millions of innocent citizens.
Whats wrong with really attempting to discuss the structure of our nation. Whats wrong with trying to come up with something that would really work. Whats wrong with having the six zones as regions capable of determining their direction. Afterall, the UK has within it, four different countries- England, Scotland, Wales & Northern Ireland and its working perfectly. Why can't we attempt something


Sometimes it feels like the current president is a curse upon the people.

The bida basin have oil and gas potential but not in viable quantity from exploration point of view. The oil industry is a big business and the iocs invest alot before drilling. One key aspects of engineering economics is early return on investment since it provides them with more flexibility in making future investment decisions.
