No I think it's derivation formula mining activities not the local govts, what goes to each local govt I think is the, same what goes to the states are also based on their shares in nnpc but basically I think it's the same

Oil producing states get 13% derivation.only oil producing states.

How old are you?
I guess you are still sucking breast..
Money is allocated to each state based on their resources and internal generated revenue.

why is katsina getting more fund than oyo state

Money is shared according to the number of local governments

Xisnin:
You call the governors idiots but look at your recommendation in bold.
Does it make sense to you?

What makes the idea bad?you don't do expolration of the oil!you don't refine the oil or own refineries,you don't ship the oil or have your own oil ship tankers,you don't determine the price and you don't have control on the price.foreigners do everything.so this idea of diversitying the economy ,akwa ibok now has ibom air and building a sea port

PearlStreet:
Do I have to break it down into your native language before you understand? I'm sure you don't know what a trawler is. All you know is 'oyel' but lack knowledge of harnessing the wealth of the seas.

Trawlers are for deep sea fishing where small boats and canoes cannot reach. The catches can be frozen and moved across Nigeria and sold for billions of Naira.

The beautiful thing? Niger Delta indigenes would be employed in this project for shipping, operating the trawlers, sorting and processing catches, etc.

This is a good idea that you can actually put together and try to sell to them.

BillgatesMaigad:
Nigeria can not survive without the Niger Delta OYEL

If I take you to where this OYEL is being drilled you will not believe it. The federal government has completely surround the entire region with JTF just to guide this precious OYEL wells. Yet my people are suffering and nothing to show for!!!

In




If you're a YouTuber and you're willing to make a video of some of these OYEL producing communities, you can send me a mail. I will take you around BAYELSA and you will have first hand information.

It is fun

Oil will soon become like coal!it is better you exchange everything with China for infastructural development ,because it will become useless in a quarter century.after oil,it's customs that generates the most money,we have Nimasa,you pay coporate tax once you have a company,you pay educational tax,you pay technology tax,you pay airport tax,you pay consumption tax, excerice duty for companies,import duties when you bring in goods.so many taxes.

latyph:
Your brain is paining you...bayelsa is competing with less developed areas in Lagos like Ikorodu, Agege, Iyana Ipaja , Abule Egba.

The IGR of Ikeja alone is more than that of the whole of Bayelsa

Money that exchange hands in Lagos alone in one day is probably what exchange hands in Bayelsa in a year.

Meet a Psychiatrist to fix your brain.

The whole of South East\South south is shit.

How can you call ikrodu a less developed part of Lagos?it has an industrial area,ikorodu industrial area,it has the egbin power plant supplying power to half of the nigerian population,it has the voice of Nigeria ,it has nitel transmission.it links ogun state on shagamu side ,and arepo side ,linking Lagos ibadan express way ,it links ajah by sea and Victoria island and lekki ,it has agricultural lands for Lagos State ,it has a port which is not optimal because of the third mainland ,but it is still in use.
farming,Lagos State polytechnic.you should mention badagry,epe

trapQ:
Do you share free money to them in Lagos? Is it not money from our region that has been used to develop all parts of Nigeria? Why do your people want to die on top Niger delta oil money? Can your states survive without Niger Delta oil money?

That is not true my friend ,Lagos has 20 local government s , Victoria island and ikoyi was federal and the rest was western region.

LordVarys:
This begs the question. Which state is the largest oil producing state in Nigeria at the moment? Prior to 2007 it was Delta, then it was Rivers before Akwa Ibom overtook. Seems Delta is now the largest oil producing state in the country. Any data to that effect?

It has a large civil service

Deomovies:
Congrats in advance.

You are the reason why these people are sick,and broke

Unserious humans,over money sharing

Try to go to Japan or South Korea if you want peace.

sisisioge:
Be deceiving your fellow woman.

Why do you want to destroy other people with your opinion.i can imagine your personality.you were writing has if you were so sure.

sisisioge:
Let's tell her the truth. Sometimes, our men break these women into several pieces after these scams. Imagine if she's your daughter, won't you want to tell her the absolute truth? Mommy ke, calling non maternal females mommy is common here. Most children are compelled to call women on that arent their mothers mommy to show respect, especially in the local settings . My Nieces and Nephew sometimes call me mommmy when my mom wants them to remind me that I'm older than their mothers . Whew!

These are ssumptions ,and not necessarily true,the fact that it has happened before does not mean it is the same.

MrSly:
Lol. You thought I was talking you politics with. I can't discussnpolitics because your politics belongs to north. You don't have any political game outside north. So what can you say politically? Absolutely nothing. I think I have honoured you enough.

You that have never been in opposition before,yorubas have been in opposition for a very long time,so stop hating .

MrSly:
Of course, Igbo won't be seen as reasonable to yoloba Moslems as long as they don't have slavery mentality. But everybody were not created to be slaves.

Your tribe enslaved every other Nigerian with your unitrary system.you don't have sense,you are not even politically savvy.your politics is shit.

yomi96:
the drug baron think say na lagos state assembly, by the time them finish with am, he go see origin call am burantashi

But ,why do you hate a man trying to liberate you from this salvery.are you not tired of how the country works .

MrSly:
First of all, it's Igbo not IBO as you wrote out of ignorance or laziness. Secondly, Radio Biafra is not the cause of your race's political cowardice and north-phobia. So deal with it.

the day you igbos behave and thin right,the country will change

wink2015:
Good to know that brazil PETROBAS is also in Nigeria.

But the hard truth about this oil companies is that they operate in HIDE AND SEEK.

They prefer to hide in Lagos or Abuja where they have their corporate headquarter office.

Their MD cleverly avoid the Niger delta region their core operational base.

Their expartriate are flown to the Niger delta region lodged in 5 star hotel and flown back to Lagos or Abuja.

HIDE AND SEEK OIL MERCHANT.

They should have all been headquatered in the delta area and pay all the taxes to the state government in that region ,but the security situation scares them.

MrSly:
That tribe rather was dump not the fact in my comment. If you are from that tribe soothe yourself, no apologies.

I know you are ibo,it's obvious your brain has been suspended.filled with radio biafra propaganda.

MrSly:
And slow poke stupor pled into other person's affair. That's Joblessness

Because you mentioned a tribe in your write-up .your comment was dump .

He is wrong. We are poor because our leaders have chosen that part. Africas problem is a leadership problem and not of population problem. We are the only continent in the world where the sun shines through out without no form of natural disaster.

Our resources at hand is more than enough to feed our ever growing population but the thing question is; what have we done as a nation to manage those resources?

Look at Liberia, George weah is the president. One would think that he is the Messiah of Liberia but no, he is selling Liberia to the Arabs.. When can we ever think forward as a nation or as africans?

We allow foreigners into the country, they are more than welcome but my issue is ; why is it that they continue to exploit us in our own land.

Nigeria or Africas problem is misgovernance

You are wrong

MrSly:
Stupid man. Look at that trash. Is your mouth a dust bin? Nigeria's only problem is north then fueled by yoloba moslem sworn servitude to north. If not why will buhari remain a president?

A stupid person calling another person stupid.

farem:
After reviewing his wasted time in Senate.
His brain will never point to the millions that drop into his pockets monthly for doing nothing as a senator.
A bunch of unproductive senators, milking the burgeon population dried

Ben Bruce made a difference .

aaronson:
Nice idea Mr Ben but how is population control possible in a place like Nigeria with no infrastructure or welfare.You need infrastructure and welfare scheme to push population control, You can't come out to tell people not to have a certain number of kids when you don't effect them in any way rather want Taxes and illicit charges from them.

You can legalize abortion, accept gays and lesbianism,make adoption easy .

michoim:
What an excellent response bro.!

China is communist,and decision making is fast,the educational system is developmental that correlates with the needs of the country.

[quote author=michoim post=77702128][/quote]You are the one that is blank read more about China and study them.they also have corruption in China.

ADAMUdaCOWBOY:
He was talking population growth and he is right. Our population is growing faster than China.

Population is good but a smart population .

trapQ:
Ben sponsored a very good bill at the national assembly some days ago but trust our useless senators to not understand it, and ridicule him in the process.

Shameless low IQ deranged senators

In a structure d country the regions can decide to focus on the electric car.these unitrary system puts every body in reverse .

Preshy561:
Afonjas are anti South and anti Christian.

Except for the few of them; ffk, Fayose and co.
