They did what they had to do to get the government to start focusing on the plight of the region whose lands were being destroyed, and their states suffering financially despite carrying the financial burden of the country.

Their agitations even though to extremes at some point is what brought about the 13% derivation, the Niger Delta development commission and intervention programmes in that region

The region was ignored until they decided to pick up arms, that seems to be the only language the Nigerian government understands...

The same way it's negligence over the years has led to the desolation of Maiduguri and parts of the north east by Boko haram and same thing happening in the northwest by bandits.

In extreme cases one needs to destroy to rebuild, to die so we might live.

But after getting the funds from FG, the elites and those militants enjoy themselves to the fullest while leaving the poor people to their poverty environmental degredation illiteracy poor health facilities among others. They are the one doing themselves.

We were under the impression that the militants were fighting economic injustice. Then proved to be fighting stomach injustice. After receiving scrap from the federal government, they even invested tapping pipelines and stealing oil (which causes economic damage).

bayelsaowei:
Shell can't be blamed for the damages. This story of blaming shell is stale..the community leaders, chiefs and these militants are the culprit in recent times..and they have contributed to the pollution of the of our lands and waters.

yes you're right. Not blaming Shell but they played the larger role. The level of flaring in Nigeria surpasses any other oil producing country and it's not the militants that are flaring. That's why PH is unbreathable and now has regular soot storms (though I don't think the leadership there will figure it out). That soot is slowly ending the lives of the people in that region but Nigeria is very slow to realize danger. When it's too late we'll panic.

But the locals play 60% of the role in causing the damage. And I include federal government in 'locals' because ultimately it's a failure of regulation. That being said, Shell does not behave the way it does in Nigeria in other countries and I know that as a fact

Lol ... You can't have your cake and eat it

You can't eat your cake and have it... If you have your cake, you can eat it but once you ate it, you can't have it any more. It is gone inside your stomach

OmoEpe:
This scenario will soon play out in SE. Soon indegines based outside the Zone will not want to have anything to do with it. Only miscreants IPOB members will remain there.

Communities will start begging indigines soon to come home for Xmas celebrations

But it is not IPOB that has IDP camps and reached the negative milestone of world poverty capital?

Is too late for begging then to retune after u guys have use their expatriate to cash out.

Very soon crude oil will become obsolete and useless like coal.

But will buhari listen..? He seem bent in oil exploration in the arid north

Same mistakes IPOB and ESN plus UGM are making.

One day they will regret their actions

How have the 13% helped ur region? If ur region wanna truely be free,fight the NDDC leader's cos they are tremendously corrupt.

You will then see Niger Deltans hawking crude oil inside Lagos holdups

CRUDE OIL & AGO (DIESEL)AVAILABLE,COMMERCIAL QUANTITY SERIOUS BUYERS & ENQUIRIES ONLY.

Hmmm, okay, I will just watch and see how this pans out.

I warned you guys then but some people attacked me I'm a prophet with no church building bcus anything I say must surely come to pass sooner or later go back to my post during the heated militancy era its their boldly that I said "though the oil companies had depleted the environment badly and the course of these struggle is about fair share of oil dividend and improving the environment for livelihood which is absolutely correct and worth fighting for as Saro Wiwa wanted" but it was hijacked and militancy turned it to money making oil ridge and I said giung these way you will one day be begging those companies to return because you have compromised your stand on the real course of these struggle, now here we are.

Same way I'm warning my people about ipigs authoritarian approach naturally average Nigerian lack mental capacity to stay on course when they sense they have an edge over others they will use that slight edge to bully and suppress other and if allow to stand they will be touching everything and want to force entire lineage to obey them or suffer so they can be seen as Emperor. Look at Moham+mad of Boko Haram bitch, look at Kanu and his ipigs, look at Turji the f u c King bastard etc. Watch, the next order from ipigs is loading.......come back here and quote me then.

Gragra is not always a solution to some problems and if you are going to use gragra don't let money or acquiring weather be your motive orelse you will lost the game.

PerfectlyPerfect:


I never knew the "our oyel" people can beg like this. Well, it's too late

Their eye has open. Now their communities are dying economically.

daddytime:
Make dem dey scoop the oyel to drink and cook soup na

Shebi na "deve money" be una problem to take buy shack, smoke, marry women and build those una shapeless mansions while the generality of una population languish in penury?

Instead of una to sit down with these IOC's hold better discussions on how to sight their headquarters for the region, give employment to the indigent citizens, provide infrastructure, and clean up oil spillages from time to time, una dey go collect kobo kobo individually to take further oppress una own poor people.

Shame on una..

Okombos

u really finish them

Traplord09:
The former warlords also called on interventionist agencies to work together to sustain the peace and ensure development of the region.

money no dey again to share within themselves south south and ogorogo kiakia intake is super sonic

Princeton92:
But it's true na..... Come out Akwa Ibom here were the host so stay with us and help with developments in the State

pls,kindly write in your native dialect next time.

we are tired!!!

When we said this some years back some people insulted us. After threats did not work, they've now started begging.
If they had thought in this direction many years back, the region would have been better off. The insecurity is the reason even the ports are not attractive to business people.

You think it's only petrol that's gotten from crude oil??
Drugs, paints, plastics are also gotten so I don't think oil is going obsolete in 200 years time

money always has the last word....

nonesense....

Nigeria just squandered her oil wealth, I'm sure by the end of the next decade, oil will start facing serious phase out. The Niger Delta has nothing to show for it. Even Nigeria has nothing to show for it.

Only 150 youths? That number should be upto 10million youths begging the IOCs to come back... but I don't see that happening, because these Coys are all going deep waters.
We were warned! We had countless opportunities to develop the region and turn it to destination of international choice, but our Governor's have been sleeping.
The level of destruction is massive, and the intellectual draught continues daily.
Crude oil is not going anywhere soon.
For now, we will have to live at the mercies of the indigenous Oil Companies to get things started again, and ofcourse with the massive support of the States and Federal Governments.

It seems only the SW region is getting is right in this Country, our 6 State Governors had better sit tight, put their heads together and come up with solutions quick before we lose all our bright brains to foreign countries.

Awa oyel motherfuckers

I concur, Nigerians have these propensity to abuse an advantageous position until it becomes disadvantageous.

Ofodirinwa:
Shell is making a complete and total withdrawal from Nigeria (on shore) and all other oil companies are taking heed. They will still drill at sea which is where most of Nigeria's oil is anyways.

Other than Akwa Ibom (which is rapidly cutting a niche for its self before it's too late) and Lagos, the entire coast of Nigeria is doomed economically due to the damage Shell left

don't we have indigenous oil companies? Are there no advanced cleanup technologies and companies that can clean up the mess? Remembered an article about a company that was to clean up the mess years ago but due to corruption they didn't come or they left

Yorubas have won with their propaganda. It will be difficult to reverse this.

don't forget most of shell environment degradation is as a result of the same militants destroying pipeline and them also doing illegal crude oil that further damaged the area. U will be surprised to know that she'll has been given those communities billions but our chiefs will sit and share the money
