What's your level of Education sir?

Dikebuka:
When Shell explored oil the first time in the eastern region then, the place they sighted all their facilities was in Owerri which was incidentally one of the first place they explore for oil..it would interest you to know that iho which was one of the earliest areas oil and gas exploration was in imo state..they did not discover oil in commercial quantity then.

Shell some years back sold off there assets in Warri to marginal company and those companies sight their bases in lagos. These kind of thing can only happen in Nigeria. Shell has office in lagos, but the bulk of there asset which house the residential and industrial layout is in Port Harcourt. Same as Total and Exxon Mobil, and the servicing giants Halliburton and Schlumberger

I have asked you questions that relates with the oil and gas acts and the constitution. which you certainly don't. If those assets where under the control of the state, do you think most of these oil and gas firms will have their bases far away from state or region where their assets are.

Why do you think NPDC was sighted in Benin Edo state, If not for the fact that most of her assets are within Edo/Delta axis, though some assets are in imo

Let me explain few part of the oil and gas acts, cause I not legal studies though these relates to me.. It empowers the federal govt to give lease such as oil prospecting and mining lease to company of interest, it empowers the same government to give determine the nature of business whether joint venture or production service contract. it automatic makes the government the owner any oil and gas discovered in your backyard.

Firstly I don't engage people who insults people while making their comments.

It shows ill mannered and uncultured behaviours.

However, for the sake of others reading this post, I will point out certain facts to you.

1) Resources to develop a Nation abound in the North and the most important factor of all these factors of production is HUMAN factors.

2) The North has substantial population which can be deployed into production by training them to acquire the necessary skills and education which are NOT inborn but acquired.
Anybody can become educated and/or acquired skills.

3) The North has huge land mass which can and is producing rice, beans, maize, groundnuts, cotton and support Animal Husbandry.
All these if properly harnessed, processed and exported can generate more fund than what Nigeria is currently generating from crude oil.

The North has gold, Tin and many other mineral resources.

4) Why hasn't the North make use of all these resources to develop themselves? The Ans= NIGERIA and it's petrol Dollars.

It's the same reason why Enugu and Ondo States aren't currently enjoying the wealth from their coal and bitumen resources.

5) Sometimes, we don't run until we see something pursuing us. That's when we know how far we can run.

ContractKiller:
What fictional alternative sources of revenue are you jibbering about? Is it the ones they have refused to use in bettering themselves for the last 100 years, even before the amalgamation?

Was it not because of the extreme poverty in Aboki land that the British decided on amalgamation with the South?

How exactly does anyone "quickly develop" with massive poverty, desert encroachment and being a landlocked country?

Kindly elaborate. I'm in the mood to hear some first grade stupidity this morning.

I have always asked the same question in the past until I discovered the answers;


Higher institutions especially private universities are controlled environment where MOST people (because of their levels of education and exposure) believe they should support the system to be well organized and neat.

If you put 70 area boys,okada riders, vulganizers, Agbo sellers and mamaput in this campus, after two months, the place won't be this neat.

In the outside world, majority of the people don't believe that you should support neat environment and they do anything they like anyhow.

RealAAdekunjo:
I wonder why it is only the higher institutions that is constructed beautifully like this
why can't all the environment in Nigeria look beautiful and presemtable like this......
make I dey observe!!

Apart from the Wall gheko which of course doesn't have big body ,I have eaten all thes animals

emaskocoded:
I've seen people eat bats and snakes over here

You are wrong sir,

1) They have acquired tastes for 'good things'

2) They will quickly look inward for alternative sources of revenues which every region have in abundance

3) Corruption will reduce drastically because there won't be any surplus free money to loot.

4) The only real threat to the economic recovery of the North in the first 10 years post disintegration is Islamic terrorism because in the ensuring economic hardship in the first 24 months after the disintegration, Islamic fundamentists will want to grab power to proclaim a Caliphate.

ContractKiller:
All these flashy, superficial "achievements" would immediately fall into disrepair when these people eventually have to be on their own.


The fact still remains that were it not for the South generating 90% of this country's income you guys would remain as wretched and impoverished as your primitive lifestyles have destined you to be.

DenreleDavis(f);


Good to hear this.
However I think the essence of the NYSC posting will be defeated by giving people the chance to chose where they like to serve.

DenreleDave:
Ys.. We are allowed to choose 4 states..

We will be posted to one of those states..

Pls I am guy like u with scrotum

This Bros is funny die!

Is Shell Office ONLY in Owerri?

Shell is at liberty to open offices in ANY State.

Please qoute the sections of the Constitution and Oil &Gas Act that mention where a private company should site their offices?

Dikebuka:
So why was Shell facility located in Owerri then.....which incidentally was one of the places that shell explored for oil... You are not dealing with a normal nairaland stroll..I have told u to check d oil and gas acts and constitution

You are a specialist in propanganda.

Post the unedited video where MC Oluomo specifically mentioned Saraki or threatened the life of Saraki.

Gandollar:
MC Oluomo was in kwara and made a video of himself threatening Saraki's life. It went viral.

Excuse me sir,
Is PDP going to spill your blood or the blood of other people's children?

Obaseki doesn't know you o.


Don't die for any politician.
Don't be surprised if Oshiomole and Obaseki later reconcile and start drinking wine together.

romenna:
apc is ready to bring war.
We in pdp will match them, blood for blood.
I support kabiru
If they tink of using FG might, we'll show them that the power of the people is more than the people in power.
Enuf is enuf
No more hatchet job against Edo people by outsiders.
We will resist them violently
Whoever is coming to Edo for election manipulation should pray with their families b4 leaving their state of residence.
From gov uzodima to inec officials n police.
Make all una pray b4 comin to benin because una go learn new things from us

And if security operatives ask him to report in their office, he will be screaming 'human rights' or 'Freedom of Speech'

Gandollar:
Guy forget tout matter when you are in Edo state. No gentleman in Edo state, whether male or female.

Oshiomole himself you will agree is toutish. Remember the "go and die" incident? That's from a sitting governor to a poor erring street widowed street hawker, and on TV!

So I will advise my governor to thread carefully. He Uzodinma, cannot take coal to Enugu.

Excuse me madam, are you saying prospective NYSC members now chose the States they want to serve just like prospective students chose the universities they want in JAMB forms?

DenreleDave:
I choose the state in my 4 selections for nysc. But not yet posted sha

Mr EnuguPikin, you seem to have little regards for Always Ibom people, however you ought to know that poverty rate in Enugu State is higher than that of Akwa-Ibom?

Enugupikin:
They're definitely wasting it...go to Akwa-Ibom and see many poor people who can't afford to eat, why waste resources on something that's not useful

You will also notice Akwa-Ibom has the number 1 highest HIV rate in Nigeria..what happened to using the funds to buy free condoms for it's populace since na only fuccckk them Sabi...waste of resources when their people need it

I can't just stop laughing at what you just wrote.


Oil companies , Automobile or Cement manufacturing Companies unlike Public Corporation are all private companies and have the same liberty to set up their estates or offices anywhere.

The Government can NOT dictate to companies how and where they should set up their offices.

Suppose a 'Law' is promulgated that all oil companies should set up their head offices not more than 1 Kilometer away from their area of operation, what will now open to Chevron that have their oil rigs off shore, 60km away from the nearest Village on Nigerian soil?

What will happen if the company have oil fields in 5 States?

What if an oil company move from Ondo State to another State following discovery of oil there, say Anambra State or Borno State?

What if a company just rent a 3 bedroom flat in Yenegoa and designate it 'Head Office' to fulfill all righteousness but the bulk of their Staff are coordinated from a 20 floor skyscraper in Awka, Anambra?

[quote author=Dikebuka post=90916061][/quote]

Chevron is a private and NOT a Government company, they can build anything they like anywhere.

Why do Innoson built a factory in Nnewi when they import most of their vehicle parts through Apapa ports? Why do BUA cement have their mines in Okpella, Edo State and have offices in Kano and Lagos?

Dikebuka:
Nobody wants to dominate Lagos or take over Lagos..what we want is freedom to develop our land...I don see why Chevron will build both housing and office in lekki, while the oil and gas is in Bayelsa or even Warri self...

Because father is different from son.



Ex-President George W H Bush of the United States was elected a senator from Texas and his sons George Bush Jnr and Jeb Bush became Governors of Texas and Florida States respectively.

SarkinYarki:
The question should be what is the son of a man representing Kwara state in the Federal Executive council doing in Lagos State House of assembly..Lagos has been hijacked by outsiders

Why didn't you use your father's influence to defeat him in the election?

comshots:
He used his father influence to become a senator.Had it been he contested as a neutral person I don't think he would have won the primary.

The way you carry Yoruba and Tinubu matters on your head like Brazilian Hair is going to give you stroke before this Christmas.


Neither Buhari, Muhammed Indimi, Kingibe, Sabiu Yusuf, Aisha Buhari nor Mamman Daura is Yoruba but because of the hatred you have for the Yorubas you had to bring Yorubas into this matter.

Asgard13:
Where’s osibanjo?

This here na Dey “ real power”...... being in power, in charge, and in government “..

Yoruba go open mouth Dey yarn Tinubu... people wey hold power no Dey loud...
Tinubu osibanjo and every other Apc politicians and zombies are only boys
And don’t have a say... except as ordered by the “ men”

... infact Yoruba no even Dey this government..

Na to come online Dey make noise..

Imagine Tinubu.... abi osibanjo.. taking orders from a recharge card seller

It's called 'Evuuuli Yam'

Jubrin Al-Sudani Amaka!
Biafra Amaka!
Switzerland Amaka!

Have you noticed one thing;



Almost all house maids are promiscuous?

EzendiEgo1:
It all started from this your breast big ooh do you know how to kiss most times you will not know how it all started.

From that day na so sex take start,my brother konji can make you take risk you can't take in business. Sometimes around 2am I will open her door just to have sex or kiss her.

Aah this girl sex me well o my god...mind you me I never marry ooh just dey my uncle place and opportunity came my way.

Small chance we don kiss,sex,romance each other but believe me my respect was no longing there,reputation all gone because of sex.

We keep engaging in sex with condom until one day she refuse I must go raw. I did it raw from that day onwards but will not cum inside, from that raw was the beginning of pregnancy fear.

She later sack herself in the name she's not feeling fine. One week later she called me that she's pregnant and she will have to do abortion or else everyone will know (fake pregnancy) I have to give her money in order to save myself.

Picture: After the so called pregnancy I have to go and test if the pregnancy is gone with that test tube.

D'Banj's crew members were lodged in the Hotel.

Other guests like Seyi also lodged there too.

tunjijones:
I heard it was d banj that lodged everybody in the hotel. Meaning he is the one paying for all the guest in the hotel at that time.

So yes, the receptionist cld give him the spare key. Though am not taking sides.

And any rape case that is not reported after 72hrs shd be void. Ladies need to speak out immediately they are raped not coming out after several years to accuse someone.

How can D'Banj just stroll into a Hotel at 2:30am and demanded for extra key of a particular room which incidentally was the room Seyi was sleeping naked inside?

This doesn't add up.

Thank you for rising above emotion and thought deeply about the story.

Beverlyjean:
U are a very bitter person...how can u proof that he raped her?? Or he just decided to visit any hotel at v.i and they were star stuck and the receptionist decided to give him the key to the room of a guest...how foolish??

Its certain dbanj invited the girl and paid for that room , when he got bk to the hotel, the receptionist gave him the keys to the room he paid for ... he must have told the girl what's up b4 paying for that room ... whatever happened in the room , no one knows... was she beaten ?? How can u even determine rape... how are u sure she is not a vindictive woman that's angry she dint get what she hoped for and is now playing rape victim card... how come she never reported the incident... even in America, she will go to jail for this

Anybody can say anything on Social media but this doesn't make it the gospel truth.

Different States are strategizing on how to develop their States with varying degrees of success.


There are established indices of development which can be used to measure and compare development among States and Countries.

NwaAro:
Utter nonsense, I have biTch slapped you with enough facts. Now choke on these new facts from your brother on Twitter, fucking slave.

No part of Nigeria is truly marginalized.

Who is marginalizing who? The Old Eastern Region cease to exist in 1967.


The only people marginalized in this country are the masses.

ContentedK:
youre shifting the post, please go back and read what I posted that you quoted first, you just singled airport and still didn’t make any sense till this moment. Is the old eastern region marginalized or not?

That's another topic entirely.

However, the forces of demand and supply determine the volume of Air traffic (especially Int'l flights) to and from airports.

Airports are just like motor parks for land transportations.

The volume of land traffic in Lagos and Abuja are higher than in the S/East. This is not due to marginalization but demand and supply.

For instance, I wanted to travel to Yobe State by air some years ago but on getting to the airport, they told me that the two closest airports to Yobe are Gombe and Maiduguri Airports.

Gombe was closer to my destination but only one airline was plying the Lagos-Abuja-Gombe routes and it was only on Mondays and Wednesdays!

ContentedK:
i can’t be typing long epistles like you do coz I’m a lazy typist, in all are you trying to imply that the old eastern region is not being marginalized?

So if there is no Tinubu, political conflicts will not occur in Edo State?

topboss:
Problem with Oshiomole is Tinubu.


He is preparing Tinubu for 2023 and putting people in place for Tinubu.



That is wat is causing all this problem.

Airlines go to those airports sir.

However, it may be once a week and may be 2-3 Airlines.
These are determined by the demand from clients to and from those Airports.
It's not due to any acts of marginalization as being wrongly peddled.

Stella Oduah and GEJ would have lifted any embargo on those airports if it's embargo that are making them less busy.


The same is obtainable in most parts of Nigeria.

You will hardly see International flights to and from Ilorin Int'l Airport or Maiduguri Int'l Airport.


As a matter of fact, the few places where you can get adequate and REGULAR air traffic are;

1) Lagos- Commercial Capital
2) Abuja,- Seat of Government
3) P/Harcourt- Oil city
4) Kano- Islamic pilgrimage



All other Airports in Nigeria are not very busy.

ContentedK:
how many airlines are allowed to operate in those mentioned airports and mind you akanu Ibiam has been closed down for reasons best known to them

The Arrewa guy has a point.

They may not have started dating but I can see aura of admiration in these pictures.


Even without saying any word , many things can be inferred from looks alone.

They don't really have to travel to Lagos or Abuja.

They can use Akanu Ibiam Int'l Airport, Margret Ekpo Int'l Airport, Calabar as well as Port Harcourt Int'l Airport, Port Harcourt.

The volume of Air Traffic to Airports are determined by largely by economic factors and not necessarily marginalization as being peddled by Nnamdi Kanu &IPOB.

It's just like residents of Aguleri, Mbaise, Afaraukwu and Afikpo asking why they have to traveled to Onitsha to board Marcopolo Buses going to Abuja instead of boarding Abuja buses directly from their home towns?


There was no airport in Jigawa and Gombe States before 2023 but the Administration of Ex-Govs Sule Lamido and Danjuma Goje built International Airports in there States.

We didn't see citizens of these States whining and wailing everyday on social media.

There's no need for all these unnecessary victim mentality.

ContentedK:
please shut up coz it’s quite obvious you know nothing, the same Atlantic Ocean that goes through Lagos you’ll get in Warri, calabar, Uyo, rivers, but your kangaroo government has always made sure that non of those ports will maximize any of its potential all in the name of marginalization.. port Harcourt was just allowed to operate recently because of the congestion going on in Lagos sea port, which nobody even knows the fate of that port at the moment.. why must anyone from southeast have to travel to Lagos or Abuja before embarking on a foreign trip... Nigeria is a zoo simple

You mean their properties are safer in Port Harcourt where they were seized and declared abandoned properties?

PeaceNexus:
You should take pains to read comprehensively what I wrote up there.

I simply said that their property are safer outside the country than anywhere within the country away from SS and SE.

So you are correct by saying that they have alot of investments in Lagos but those investments are not safe....mind you, even the Government are always looking for the slightest reason to cripple businesses run by Igbos.

Epe which Ambode's hometown is in Lagos East Senatorial District.

kumancy56:
Including Ambode in this list have shown that this post is suffering of lythroziludide congress because as a resident of Lagos East, I know that he (Ambode) doesn't share the same senatorial district with us.

Stop misinforming your readers plz.
