My esteemed Judges, Coordinators, Fellow co-debaters, informed audience, all other protocols duly observed. I remain my humble self, gbemmie09, second speaker representing Adekunle Ajasin University Akungba Akoko and I'm opposing the Topic that says: IT IS BETTER TO EXTEND OUR FOCUS AS A NATION TO AGRICULTURAL SECTOR RATHER THAN MAJOR IN OIL AND GAS. The impact of oil and gas sector in Nigeria, can not be overlooked for the development of the economy. Therefore, the history must be given. Oil and gas operations commenced in Nigeria effectively in 1956, with the first commercial find in that year by the then shell D' Arcy. Before thus time that is, from November 1938, almost the entire country was convered by a concession granted to the company to explore for petroleum resources. This dominant role of shell in the Nigeria oil industry continued for many years until Nigeria's membership of the Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) in 1971, after which the country began to take a firmer control of its oil and gas resources in line with the practice of the other members of OPEC. This period witnessed the emergence of National oil companies (NOCs) across OPEC member countries, with the soil objective of monitoring the state of the oil-producing countries in the exploitation of the resources. Whereas in some OPEC member countries the NOCs took direct control of production operations. In Nigeria, the Multinational oil companies (MNOCs) were allowed to continue with such operations under Joint Operating Agreements (JOA) which clearly specified the respective stake of the companies and the Government of Nigeria in the Ventures . This period also witnessed the arrival on the scene of other MNOCs such as Gulf oil and Texaco (chevron Texaco), Elf petroleum (now Total), Mobil (now Exxon Mobil) and Agip in addition to shell, which was already playing a dominant role in the industry. These other companies were also operating under JOAs with NNPC with varying percentages of stakes in their respective acreages. To date, the above companies constitute the major players in Nigeria's oil Industry with shell accounting for just a little less than 50% of Nigeria's total daily production, which currently stands at about 2.4 million barrels of oil per day. The emergence of offshore oil and gas operations and the granting of deep water acreages to the oil producing companies has however witnessed a shift from JOA regimes to production sharing contracts (PSCs), with implications for the operation and regulation of the oil industry in Nigeria. This shift is attributable to a number of factors ranging from the complexity of operations in the offshore terrain. Furthermore, some of the impact of the petroleum sector on the economy would be highlighted. The question is: Is the Agricultural sector or oil and gas the only saviour to Nigeria economy. The petroleum sectors have contributed immensely to Revenue generation in the country. Right from the 1970s to present, oil has been the major source of foreign exchange earnings and government revenue. In spite of decline, revenue from oil today counts for over 90% of the government revenue. As stated by Egbuna (1989), the entire corporate workforce of NNPC has grown to about 18000 people spanning through their major areas of activities nation wide. Although this number is considered large for a single cooperation. It is even infirmitesimal when one imagines the up to one million Nigerians who are directly or indirectly earning their living from the activities in the petroleum sector of the economy from the upstream to the downstream sector I.e from exploration to drilling and refining down to distribution marking of the product. Again the oil sector has helped in the case of foreign investment. There had been a remarkable increase in the foreign investment and this is made possible by the oil wealth. This foreign investment have however, provided employment for Nigerians, created goods and services in the economy and stimulated the growth of subsidiary firms. It has also helped in positive economic growth and development since the oil revenue constitute the bulk of the government income right from 1970s, noticeable projects and investments have been carried out successfully with the revenue. This is evident in the rapid increase in the economy's wealth of infrastructural facilities and amenities within the period of oil boom. Revenue from the oil in the 1970s formed the catalytic substantially the height of development of the Nigeria economy. Thus, it was during the period that Nigeria was decorated with the accolade "THE GIANT OF AFRICA" REFERENCES: http://www.doublegist.com/oil-sector-impact-development-nigerian-economy http://www.hollerafrica.com/showArticle.php?artId=85&catId=2 2 Likes 1 Share |

Nowadays, the classroom has lost its sanctity as cases of intimate harassments and other vices between teachers and students are increasing in geometric rates and the benefit of facelessness and anonymity which some social networking websites offer could help to further perpetuate such vices and even take it to an advanced level if a teacher-student relationship on social networks is encouraged. 1 Like 1 Share |

damoskiy: That is the reason every teacher must know their students.Social network serve as a medium of interaction, in which the teacher can give extra classes online to less participating students.Lead to what? Teachers have policy guiding them, so they know when to draw a line when interacting with their students. 1 Like |
