dapyd1: You guys forget that we are talking about literature as an art, and using the word 'better' does not capture it. Depending on the reader, critic or environment the criteria for measuring which writer is better will be entirely different. Why do humans like putting people in a box by classifying them as better or worse. We have had a horde of brilliant writers over the past century in the African continent, majority of whom even the OP has not read even if you spend every minute of your life reading.
The question is subjective and can only lead to arguments and counter-arguments.
My two cents though. . Dude, this is way beyond two cents. Excellent post 2 Likes 1 Share |

Politics › Re: Aje Oil Field Begins Production As Lagos Joins Oil Producing States by nonjebose(m): 8:40am On May 04, 2016 |
Dasuks: Its good that Lagos has added an extra bead to its already long chain of viable sectors. However @SamuelAnyawu it does not really affect other oil producing states esp those in the Delta. The 13% deriv tax is based on the dollar value of your production. Akwa Ibom,Rivers, Delta and Bayelsa produce 92% of the total and as such get a cumulative .13 of that amount( compare with rivers' 340k or AKS' 504k). Lagos will get same of whatever it produces, note that Aje is a field set to plateau at 50k to 80k(tops) a day. Lagos' $ 150 billion economy still and will always be based off the robust services sector that makes it the numero uno city in the west africa region. Speaking of states like Borno, the issue will be making the oil commercially viable. Chances are its heavy sour and highly acidic( TAN) just like the Doba(same Doba basin) blend next door in Chad.Which would mean low prices, say when light sweet sold for 26, that specific blend sold for about 15-17 dollars. Not to mention the infrastructure needed to channel it to the coast. Linking it thru the ones in cameroon that chad uses would prolly be cheapest OR building new transport infrastructure down to our own coast... But how much per barrel is the transport tax going to be ?? This complicates things for an already poorly priced product that has to be marketed almost solely to north american refineries that already get heavy crude from Alberta ( not to mention shale etc)?? Consider clean-fuel regulations and oil refiners' desirability for more appropriate light sweet and u see why it isn't really all that glittery. All of this hassle for about 2 billion barrels tops reserves.... Nigeria is a diverse place , let everybody do what they can but we should never avoid specifics. The best post so far. I enjoyed your analysis. 1000000 likes for you |

greenpasture: Maybe you should read what he wrote again and find if some of the elements of research have been satisfied. You cannot rule out the value of research simply because it is done at a desk level. For some situations these are the only options available
If I ask my son to do research on waterfalls in nigeria would you expect him to go and physically visit all waterfalls in nigeria?
We are talking about a ten line contribution to NL here and not a term paper or masters dissertation. What I congratulated the writer for was that unlike those who simply spew out their prejudice here on NL he at least took some effort to get to an informed position. He might not have all the answers, he might not even be right but I laud his process.
Much better than the write first think later so common these days. I feel that every research is limited. The element of research process he used is so open to debate. Grazing areas or fields documented use parameters that may not be fulfilled by the grazing arears in SE( I am SS), but if you check my reply to him, you will notice I expected him to be open minded. The same way some people can photoshop picture evidence he so asked for, that is how research findings can be flawed. Thanks all the same for your time |
Politics › Re: Enugu Killers Were Fulani Herdsmen - Police by nonjebose(m): 11:13am On May 02, 2016 |
Kennydoc: If I post pictures of Fulani cattle herders grazing their cattle in Benue for example, how will he know it isn't from the south east? His posts are really illogical. That assertion is very crazy. I'm from the south east, and I know these herders and their cattle abound in my community and those surrounding mine.
How can you do an internet research about an issue going on in Nigeria, and claim you've done a research? Even in the field of medicine for example, there are very limited data emanating from Nigeria, for numerous cases and conditions. How much more something as unspecific as cattle grazing?
When he carried out his research, didn't he see reports in the national dailies about different confrontations between villagers in the south east and cattle herders? Why weren't those reports adequate for him?
It's actually stupid saying that Fulani herders don't graze their cattle in the SE. Such a statement doesn't deserve a response. If only he attempted to do even the least of field research, he would never have made that useless assertion. How can he claim that Borno is the main grazing land for the cattle. Do they also graze in Borno between November and March when almost the whole North is dry and green leaves can barely be seen?
For your information, these guys graze not just grasses but anything green. The reason farmers often have clashes with them is that they often take their cattle into farmlands and destroy crops. As a result, some farmers engage them in a fight and in the process, some of their cattle may be killed (or stolen). The killing of villagers often happen in retaliation of the killing (and occasionally stealing) of their cattle.

theEYe21: You can't compare Boko haram's agenda to fulani's heardmen agenda, they are very different. The Fulani heardmen only Cares about their cows, for example if anything happens to any of the Fulani's cows, they are likely to kill a person for it, to show you how angry and personal they can get. The fulani's tribe doesn't only reside in Nigeria, there are a lot of fulani's in different part of Africa like Mali. Some Fulani heardmen migrate all the way from Mali to Nigeria just to graze, breed and prevent tsetse fly from killing their cows. That's how personal they are with their cows. The provocation is what you just typed. They trespass into your farm, destroy your crops, destroy your source livelihood, you challenge them, no apologies, chase them out,they take offense the rest is history |

greenpasture: Comparison, Contrast, Consolidation and Exception criteria are the marks of true analysis. You don't need a lab to do this, they can be done in a shot time provided you know what you are doing.
Everyone has a bias, it is only by following a mental process like this that you can be sure you are acting on the facts and not on your pet view. That's the true marks of an educated soul. The willingness to dump personal bias for an informed position.
Can't believe you wrote this.
Bookmark the page/story and come back to it in three years and let's talk then. Clearly you know nothing about education. You clearly took a stand with a position that is an "exception". The three Cs fall flat in the face of an evidential and discovery process. Mind you, no where have these analyses been proven to negate the superority of discovery learning. Read up my other posts on this matter, then you will learn why your analysis is faulty |

rusher14: Even with some harsh words I prefer your records and accounts of the farmi system and sustenance of cattle along that route.
You've touched on the availability of crops for the cattle, you've given an account as a witness to the effects of cattle rearing in the community.
I wish other will continue this path rather than insults.
I would like further evidence be provided though.
Not necessarily from you but from other to help buttress the point.
Why don't take a trip to the SE. Just 5 states, you will get all the evidence that you will ever need. Just get off your phone or laptop and take a road trip. Go and discover for yourself |

rusher14: Fizznation has spoken like an intelligent, logical thinker.
What he says might hurt but he hits home.
This is 2016. We are all chatting on mobile phones usually with embedded cameras.
He demands proof of herdsmen grazing their herds in these communities.
He claims the vegetation is not of the quality that might attract cows and sees no reason why these herdsmen would be in these communities in the first place.
Surely, we aren't barbarians in Nigeria. We cannot abandon the scientific, logical approach to problem solving.
Can we look beyond sentiments and provide proof?
Let us assume he did not see any grazing area in SE on google map, he should have taken a trip to SE to confirm his theory. There is always a cattle market in every state of the fedration, where the herdsmen take the cattle out for feeding before sales. If they don't see any grazing area, where do you think they will take them to? FARMS!!! Residential arears are not spared too |

fiizznation: Everybody knew that Fulani herdsmen kidnapped the respected elderly statesman, chief olu falae. There were pictorial and video evidences. The culprits were also interviewed. I believed that story and I know my brothers did it. The Ogun incident too came with a lot of evidences that Fulani herdsmen were involved.
But this particular nimba uzo incident is very ludicrous. The entire thing looks like some kind of acting. Fulani people don't roam around that area with their cattle(I have evidences). The reports were clashing with one another. Vanguard knew about the attack even before it happened and they didn't report it to DSS, army etc. How could 500 later 50 herdsmen attack a community without any provocation? I like your civility, but am astounded by your assertions. Fulani herdsmen know the different scattered, small size grazing areas than any map will reveal to you. There are patches of grazing land in SS and SE. This is the reason why they encroach on farmlands to auguement whatever small piece of grazing land they come across |
