Because human sacrifice is not allowed, Jesus sacrifice himself once for all.

Nope to your question.
I assume you are a christian.
There are human sacrifices, stoning to death, lying to advance faith and others in the bible.
Should I assume you are a human ritualist, intolerant bigot and liar by default?
There’s no where in the Bible human sacrifice is used to appease almighty God. Stop lying here.

Mumu people... You threw away your heritage to accept another man's own. No be mumu be dat?
Is your heritage sacrificing fellow human being? Will you volunteer to be sacrificed by those who practice this?

Plantiff:
The United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea (UNCLOS) governs how International water bodies are used by the 193 Member States of the United Nations.

Article 57 of UNCLOS which provides for the "Breadth of the exclusive economic zone" States that
"the exclusive economic zone shall not extend beyond 200 nautical miles
from the baselines from which the breadth of the territorial sea is measured."


Article 3 of UNCLOS which provides for the "Breadth of the Territorial Sea" States that "Every State has the right to establish the breadth of its territorial sea up to a limit not exceeding 12 nautical miles, measured from baselines determined in accordance with this Convention."

Article 6 of UNCLOS provides for the Baseline in the following words:

"Except where otherwise provided in this Convention, the normal baseline
for measuring the breadth of the territorial sea is the low-water line along the coast as marked on large-scale charts officially recognized by the coastal State."



From the above, it can be deduced that natural oil reserves in the sea that Nigeria has access to falls within the Exclusive Economic Zone of Nigeria. The Exclusive Economic Zone of Nigeria is 200 nautical miles from the baseline of Nigeria. The baseline in this case is measured from Akwa Ibom because it is where Nigeria meets the Sea.

If Akwa Ibom was separated from Nigeria, the measurement of the Exclusive Economic Zone wouldn't change and the distance would still be 200 nautical miles.

The Exclusive Economic Zone has nothing to do with the landmass of a country but the distance from its baseline.

It is Akwa Ibom and other Southern States bounded by the sea that makes Nigeria a Coastal State in the First place.
Some people just wan lie give us. I shook my head the day that man made that claim.

BKayy:
NO, the Aboki is wrong. Land mass has zero effect in Territorial waters and EEZ. Benin Republic has more sea claim than Nigeria and if I can remember very well, Benin Republic is not up to half of Nigeria in land mass.

Nigeria's territorial sea claim is: 12nm
While Benin Republic Sea claim is: 200nm


Even small Togo is: 30nm


Coming to EEZ, Ghana, Namibia, Angola and Equatorial Guinea for example in Africa have more EEZ than Nigeria despite having smaller land mass.

Lets take Equatorial Guinea for example,
Equatorial Guinea EEZ= 303,509 km2
Nigeria EEZ = 217,313 km2


In other words, Northern Nigeria is full blooded Parasite
Thank you very much. I was trying to correct this.

Igboid:
But there is a factor people are not considering regarding the offshore fields.

NIGERIA only have claim to these fields because of our landmass that the North contribute the bulk of. As you level of claim to intercontinental waters I learnt is determined by your landmass.
If there is disintegration of NIGERIA, Akwaibom might not have enough landmass to claim those oil Wells from other smaller countries in the region like Cameroon, Gabon, Equitorial Guinea, etc.

What do you think about this?
Territorial boundaries are not determined by landmass rather by baseline. Don’t let anyone fool you.

Ijaws.

Delta ijaw fields
Bayelsa Ijaw fields
Rivers Ijaw fields.
They move into number one. (1st)

Ibibios don't have oil unless you are considering the Orons and Ibenos as part of a meta-ethnicity called "Ibibio""...
That would push them into number 2. (2nd)

Then the Igboid groups (Including Ukwuani and Ekpeye) all together would come third. (3rd)

Then itsekiris would come Fourth. (4th)

My unbiased Opinion.

Only Awoniyi, Dessers, and the watford star make sense for now

I wonder what Onyekuru is doing on this list. He is not good enough for any position in the SE

And some ill-trained folks will come at me with insults but I love to ignore them grin grin
Onyekuru is not a striker.

How many goals has he scored this season, and besides he is not consistent.
4 goals and 1 assist but he is a winger.

3 appearances and 1 goal this season while playing in a less competitive league is not good at all

He should not even be on that list
8 appearances, 4 goals and 1 assist as a Winger not striker.

Dennis is also a winger.

I already told you Villas Boas was sabotaged at Chelsea. So bringing records there does not hold water.

He was exceptional at Porto. One of the fiercest teams I ever watched.

My best players then we're
Radamel Falcao Garcia
Hulk
Freddy Guarin
James Rodriguez
Alvaro
And Miranda.

Insane.
Where is he now?

Please Van Gaal is pure possession football. One of his criticisms at Manchester United was his obsession for possession football.


https://totalfootballanalysis.com/head-coach-analysis/the-netherlands-202122-how-they-are-playing-in-possession-under-louis-van-gaal-scout-report-tactical-analysis-tactics
So Amuneke played under Bobby. How did he learn possession football?

Thank you. Direct football with wing play. I think you have helped me put a description on the type of football I like. Let me add this to make it a more robust package: direct football sprinkled with good measure of flair with wing play. Na so I like my football diet.
Flair has always been part of our style in those days but this modern football don remove the flair pata pata.

Is Iperu where the site of the airport is located the same as Ajumo where the US based investor wants to build the International airport?
