Gas is the future. But why are all Rivers oil close to SE border? Onelga and oyigbo are neither ijaw nor ikwere. Thank God gas is situated deeper into south east away from these cowardly minorities who are being used by fulani feudalist

Captain8:
The Supreme Court on Friday in Abuja, in a landmark judgment, resolved the ownership dispute of 17 oil rich wells in favour of Rivers State.


In the judgment prepared by Justice Heleen Ogunwumiju but delivered by Justice Emmanuel Agim, the apex court dismissed the counter claim ownership put forward by the Imo State Government.

The oil wells, located in the territories of Rivers and Imo states, have been a subject of litigation at the apex court which served as a court of first instance with seven justices in the panel.

According to Justice Agim, reliefs 1, 3 4 5 and 6 sought by Rivers State Government were granted by the court.


The court however refused to grant reliefs 2, 7 and 10.

Among the reliefs granted by the apex court in favour of Rivers are that the boundary between Rivers and Imo as delineated in Nigeria’s administrative map 10th edition, 11th, 12th edition and other maps bearing similar delineation are inaccurate, incorrect, and do not represent the legitimate and lawful boundaries between Rivers and Imo state.

The Supreme Court agreed with Rivers that the correct instruments, map and documents to be relied upon in determining the boundary between Rivers and Imo states are those used by Rivers in delineating the boundary line between the two states including Decree No. 14 of 1967, Decree No. 12 of 1976, the White papers/conclusion of the Federal Military Government on the Irikefe and the Nasir Boundary Commission/Boundary Adjustment Commission , the Eastern Nigeria map, the Provincial map of Owerri province, Warri Province, Onitsha Province, Rivers Province, the Ahoada District map and Aboh Division map.


The Apex Court also declared that based on the correct instruments, maps and documents for determining the boundary between Rivers and Imo states, including Decree no. 14 of 1967, Decree No. 12 of 1976, the White papers/conclusion of the Federal Military Government on the Irikefe and the Nasir boundary Commission/boundary Adjustment Commission, the Eastern Nigeria map, the Provincial map of Owerri Province, Warri Province, Onitsha Province, Rivers Province, the Ahoada District map and Aboh Division map, the Rivers State communities wrongly attributed to Imo State among other communities are communities within the territorial boundaries of Rivers State and therefore communities in respect of which Rivers State is entitled to exercise governmental and administrative powers including entitlement to benefits derivable from mineral or other resources within the communities.


The court also made declaration that all the oil wells within Akri and Mbede communities usually identified with the names Akri and Mbede including the oil wells identified on Rivers map showing the location of oil wells wrongly attributed to Imo State including Akri 012, Akri 009, Akri 010, Akri 004, Akri West 002, Akri 001, Akri West 001, Akri 003, Akri 002, and Akri South 001, Mbede 017, Mbede 010, Mbede 019, Mbede 018, Mbede 002, Mbede 009, and Mbede 005 are all oil wells within the territory of Rivers State and form part of Rivers State and that it is only the state that is entitled to receive the full allocation of the distributable revenue derived from the oil wells on the basis of the 13 percent derivation principle as provided for under Section 162 of the 1999 Constitution as amended, among others.

Justice Ogunwumiju however refused to grant the N500 million cost requested by Rivers State.

The Supreme Court also refused to order the AGF to calculate and refund to Rivers State all revenue that have been wrongly denied the state and wrongly paid to Imo state on account of the extent of the distributable revenue derived from the Akri and Mbede oil wells.

The AGF and Imo State, who are the 1st and 2nd defendants respectively in the suit, had on February 7 when they adopted their final processes prayed the court to dismiss the suit and order Rivers to file it at the Federal High Court because it is a revenue matter.

Their grounds are that before the suit can be amicably resolved, witnesses, especially residents of the disputed areas needed to be called to give oral evidence on which side they belonged between Imo and Rivers.

The two defendants further demanded that the intervention of the National Boundary Commission would also be required to give evidence at the Federal High Court before an appreciable conclusion can be drawn.

The requests were however turned down by the court.

ezenwajosh:
Now go into the comments and you Igbo one Nigerian will understand is not about IPOB is the hate for Igbo man....I rest my case

Idiko1:
It is still unfortunate certain goons of Igbo extraction believed Nigeria/Biafra war had ended. The recent decisions of the so-called Supreme Court are the examples of the facts Nigeria/Biafra war is as good as it can get. When Yoruba and Nigeria are involved, Ndigbo and Biafra should be on the watch out.

Felimax:
An Igbo man is more of a brother to me than an Hausa man and a Yoruba man. The time will come when you will know. I have and will continue to have great regards for my Igbo brothers.

I was transferred from Warri to manage our head office in Lagos, shortly after my resumption the company decides to downsize a little bit to meet up with staff welfare and salaries and of course our package was boosted.

The Igbos among us were quick to accommodate me and protect me while the Yorubas will openly tell me this is Lagos a Yoruba state and I cannot come and do better than them, that they will not accept the company reviewing my salary twice.
It was a stiff one melted on me by my Yoruba colleagues. In everything and move I make they want to outsmart me, little did they know that I am the beast myself.

Accomodation was another thing that threatened my stay in Lagos, every one of my Yoruba colleague or agent want me to be able to speak Yoruba for almost a year I was squatting with a cousin at far away Obadore, it was not easy until I met an Igbo agent who hearing my name swore to help me, they took me as their own and a two bedroom flat which normally goes for about 240k then at Ojodu was given to me for 180k, I stayed in that estate for almost 5years before my resignation.

I am not a Rivers man neither from Imo but right here in Rivers State you cannot separate the two of them.

Sorry for my long story.

At the bolded:

You see why Igbos should never be allowed to settle outside their yeast.

See how Imo state wanted to use Igbo IDPs and migrants to claim parts of Rivers.

Igbo IDPs? Are you for real or you are just trying to be annoying this morning?
