This is what a country that want safety should do, If Nigerian government had established settlements in those places retaken from Boko Haram and Bandits we would have send them out of Nigeria by now
[code][/code]When the riteous rule the people rejoice, In Abia state the new governor is doing things differently...Who ruled matter
JASONjnr: There's absolutely nothing Obi would've done differently that Nigeria would've been better than it is today.
Moreover, Obi doesn't have what it takes to withstand the northern influence.
The South East should lower their voice and build a strong leader or king that will be highly respected.... Someone with greater influence that would influence their political and national decisions.
Not every one speaki6from different point of views and expect the country to take them serious.
We carry the matter for head in other to protect our children from yansh hunters
Wagwanbrethren: Good one from the US! They are quick to impose death penalty on homosexuality, but can't impose death sentence on their corrupt politicians! 🤣
Most Africa countries with their misplaced priority. LGB is here to stay, either you like it or not. Na just time. The death penalty is too extreme, and that's human right abuse.
I wonder why people are going crazy over what two adults choose to do with themselves. Don't you get it, they are not sexually attracted to the same sex, no matter how you try to change them, it's the way they are. No be your nyash I dey f;k, so why you carry the matter for head? ☹️
KikBuhari2Daura: IPOB the No 1 widow maker in the South East, the only organization that kills fathers in front of their children. The No 1 enemy of the South East economy but Peter Obi says an organization terrorizing the entire south east are not terrorist?
IPOB are terrorist only in Nigeria but, they are all over the world and are not terrorist in other countries, They were proscribed in Nigeria and labeled terrorist even when they were still protesting and had not fired a single shot. With these points of mine Obi was correct sice this interview was done when they were still protesting and had not started using weapons but IPOB has turned out to be something else because of the way the government handled their agitations
baby124: This has nothing to do with the employees but the company. This is why Niger Delta gets a percentage of revenue from these operations. Ask your Governors to use the money well. If you can’t force your indegens to stay in your state, you can’t force others. By the way, the headquarters are in Lagos because that is the commercial capital. Probably corporate office. They guys that drill most likely live where they drill or live there partially if they have families in Lagos.
I have never mentioned employees all we are saying is that the companies should relocate to where drill, their staffs can live anywhere they want, its not iur business, is lagos not getting a percentage of VAT from FG why do they want full VAT it is because they are being shortchanged, it is thesame thing we are talking about that these companies should pay full taxes where they are drilling or drill where they are paying taxes
baby124: Does your state not sell petrol? They will collect VAT from that. But before you force foreigners to live in your state, force your indegens or Lagos will need to start requesting you pay tax on your indegens in the state too. Who are adding stress to an already stressed infrastructure
my indegines in lagos are already paying taxes in lagos just as lagos indegines in Bayelsa are paying taxes to Bayelsa, we are talking about companies drilling in the states where they pay taxes and not driling in one state and paying taxes in another state
baby124: First force the indegens of your state to relocate home so they can be paying taxes there. The business they are doing in Lagos can they not do it in their states? Of course your argument will be they are Nigerians, they can live anywhere. So are majority oil workers. States even indegens run from. You want foreigners to live there. Instead of blaming everybody else, work on your security and people will live there. Even the companies cannot force their employees to live there.
We are not forcing them to relocate but very soon we will force them to drill oil from where they pay taxes...
Elliotwaveforec: By residency rule, where the workers are is where they pay to.
In the case of oil companies, most of the workers at the top management level live in Lagos while those at the lower level are in Bayelsa state. This explains why the large chunk of the PAYE goes to Lagos.
This is the reason why oil extraction need to stop in other for them to drill from where they pay taxes
baby124: You want them to put their families in harms way permanently. So militants can go and be kidnapping, terrorizing and maiming their families. People put their lives at risk to make a living daily, they don’t involve their families. Fix your state, you can’t force anything. By the way, you can also call the indegenes of your state in Lagos to relocate. Force them to come back first to live.
You dont know what you are saying my dear, their workers are in all the drilling locations and flow stations drilling oil and gas daily without being kidnap but when it come to siting their head offices there is insecurity, you talk of indegines of my states in lagos to relocate, are they doing business in lagos and paying taxes elsewhere? It is wrong to do business in south south and be paying taxes in lagos that is what we are saying
mu2sa2: SE states are parasites - they contribute next to nothing to the national Gdp. North produces agricultural products, south-south produces oil. Without the north everyone will starve. Now you know why SE governors have to be silent.
First you can not compare south east to north but North and South, secondly the agricultural products produced in the north are not being shared to nigerians for free but are being sold by northerners while the oil and gas produced in southern Nigeria is being shared to the whole of Nigeria trough allocations so who is the parasite here?
Omoluabi1stborn: Sadly Nah the militants and insecurities caused that.
How come militants and insecurity did not stop them from extracting oil and gas but stoped them from siting their offices in the niger delta, very soon they must drill from where they pay taxes restructuring is coming gradually
Congratulation to yet another great son of Ijaw land and Bayelsa State you have done us proud

All the environmentalist that always say Niger delta will suffer will not say anything now, its high time every Niger deltan have a his or her own crude oil points for refining and raw export....
Good one from our lawmakers, they are truely the peoples representatives. Nigerian youths are now slaves in other countries because of lack of jobs in the country, some have become kidnappers, arm robbers, political tugs, suicide bombers, baby factorises, human part dealers, assassins, drug dealers and users, street cultists, militants, terrorists and all other criminal acts and vices known to man. they are all in the increase all because of the level of unemployment...Since the present organisations are not creating employments for the youhts let new organizations be formed that will created employment all they need is training and they will serve instead of harming the country. #istandwithpeacecorps
schwarzermann: There are 1001 ways to win an election, unfortunately, this isn't one of them. Every educated Nigerian knows that the Peace Corps bill is a duplication of duties.
Which organisation is saddled with the responsibility of Manning our educational institutions like chibok school and dapchi school and with the rate of cultism in our higher institutions and even secondary schools don't you think that we need educational security too?
Abdulkadir Abubakar, a leader in the Abubakar Shekau led Boko Haram, has said he’s seeking God’s forgiveness after repenting from killing and kidnapping innocent Nigerians.
Abubakar, who is in detention at a military facility, was arrested at Buni Yadi when he allegedly went on an espionage mission ahead of the insurgents’ plot to attack the commander of the Special Force Training School.
TheCable reports that Abubakar confessed to being one of the brains behind the kidnap of over 200 girls at a girls secondary school in Chibok, Borno state as well as the Buni Yadi massacre of secondary school students.
Abdulkadir Abubakar’s confession Abubakar claims to have repented saying since he had sought forgiveness from God, he believes his sins and atrocities will be forgiven.
Narrating some of his crimes, Abubakar said, “Myself and two other Boko Haram commanders, Abu Fatima and Paper, led most of the attacks on schools in Yobe between 2013 and 2014.
“We were also the ones behind the abduction of students at Government Girls Secondary School, Chibok. We also carried out attacks on schools in Potiskum, Mamudo, Damagun, Wagir and Ngarzarma, all in Yobe state.
“I wholeheartedly regret my actions and hope the Almighty Allah will forgive me. Allah said he will forgive whoever repents and asks him for forgiveness. I have repented and seek forgiveness.”
Abubakar also claimed that Shekau ordered attacks on schools, mosques, churches and markets, and also ordered abduction and rape.
MrMcJay: If soldiers come into a shrine, destroy the shrine and the gods are either unable to prevent the invasion or avenge the destruction of the shrine, such god is not worthy of worship.
I think you should worship the soldiers who are more powerful than the gods and could destroy them.
Show me the temple which a soldier can not destroy
