Hobbiton:
asin eh e de pain me tbh. He even has the gods to say such nonsense

Zero panic. the gods will soon reason their matter, all of them

Oil will feed this nation and Change will remain.. But corruption has killed the country

when was oil feeding the country?was it at the time obasanjo and his pdp were looting the nation dry with #ghanamustgobags and the poor masses were starving?EVERY NIGERIAN POLITICIAN IS A BIG ROGUE!NO SINGLE EXCEPTION!!

Nonsense. Is oil and gas still not feeding Nigeria now. Is the government of the day not investing in agriculture heavily more than anyother? If not for insecurity sponsored by the enemies of the government we should have been swimming in abundnce of food production...

adioolayi:
When we have it in abundance and it was the most sought after, the developed world got it from us used to power their industrialization process.

Other countries that also have it in abundance like us, made money and used it to transform their own economy too..

But us, it has been hunger and extreme poverty, devastating environmental effects on the oil producing areas...

It's not a function of Oil and Gas cannot feed us, it's a function of when it was feeding other Nations, our own leaders embezzled the then present and the future of Nigerians.....We never recover since then.
PDP..Never Again!

Unfortunately the same Obasanjo,who once tore his Party Membership Card,is still welcoming the past and present governors that have no bearing on the so called party! On what basis you may ask!
Ajaokuta cannot and will never get off the ground!
The Russians that got the project was written in Russian Language! Is that fair to Nigeria?
Why can't we write it in Ijebu-Language too,for the benefits of Nigeria because,you can't do anything except you contact them,those who organised,got the Contract signed had no Nigeria at heart ,at all!
Why can't Russians agreed to our Nigerian term?
We allowed it because of Corruption!

Babachukwu:
This is why we want Obi to change Nigeria from consumption to production

Nigeria need stable electricity for this...

ElSudani:
Responsible and forward thinking leaders would have seen this forty years ago.
I would give it to ObJ and his crew for starting Ajaokuta and other steel mills in their attempt to industrialize Nigeria. But without uninterrupted supply of electricity industrialization was virtually impossible.

Exactly... Nigeria got a lot of work to do ...

Juniorpope123:
Wow. OBJ is the best thing that happened to Nigeria

He is the cause of Nigerians problem.

GeneralPula:
Correct my brother..

The man nah epitome of success - turned Anambra to Dubai within 8 years..

sircatherine45:

story

Make the oil finish self make everybody calm down,since we have country who are developed without crude oil,we can do it

festacman:
Point of historical correction. "Obj and his crew" didn't start Ajaokuta and other steel Mills. Former President late Shehu Shagari and his crew did with Ali Makele as Minister of Steel Development.

Buhari, playing out the Ahmadu Bello script of ruthlessly keeping the other tribes from self determination, shut down the Ajaokuta plant, cancelled the Lagos Metro ( at the cost of a stiff penalty for breach of contract ) and today he has (in his mind) bastardized NNPC.
Eeyah.
The global economy respects intellectual property.... The refusal to educate over 90% of the youths in the north will hang round their necks like a millstone.
May God help Nigeria.

Coming from a man that spent $16billion on Electricity. 16years later, they have not switch it on.

Obasanjo should go and sit down, His among those who put Nigeria into this current condition

[quote author=koladata post=118909966]This man that took 16billion dollars for electricity and claimed they scammed him , no money , no electricity. I’m surprised some people still take him serious.
Thank you his one of the problem of this country I wonder while people take him serious

joefelin2345:
Ogbeni stop generalizing & stop being theoretical. Many have died for this country thru bad leadership while trying to change things. Many have been mailed & injured for life as well. I don't know about you o but some if us have done the best that we could during very very dangerous time some of you were just spectators are cowards & traitors. Get that into your dead brain.

Things just don’t happen without effort. Generalizations hold true because groups are easier to predict than individuals, it’s a scientific phenomenon called group psychology. You are an individual and it is difficult to predict your actions but once you join a group you assume the characteristics of that group and you are easier to predict. People assume the character of a group once they are apart of a group, in this case the group is the group of people called Nigerians. It is for this same reasons that Nigerians excel abroad but fail in Nigeria. A Nigerian will willingly stand in a queue abroad but start to jump the queue right from the airport. So if you look at the past behavior of a group you can predict it’s future. Same thing for countries. Greece for instance has always been an economic basket case. America will always be America, Russia will always be Russia and Nigeria will always be Nigeria.

Argue with yourself all you like but Nigeria has enough enough back data as a nation to predict its future. Your post shows exactly why the trajectory of Nigeria will always remain the same. All your arguments are emotional not scientific or data based. We are emotional tribal sentimental people, we never act with intelligence or critical analysis and so we keep making the same mistakes expecting a different result.

It is impossible for the current psyche of the Nigerian to produce 1) good leadership 2) goo citizens and by extension 3) a great country. FACT!!!!

It is impossible for a man heading south to arrive in the east. No matter how many times he prays, says “God forbid” etc. It’s not rocket science!!!! If the road you are on is heading south, the only place you will end up is south. On this there is no ambiguity.

Nigeria is like the story of the alcoholic. The time to solve or prevent his problem whas when he started drinking or developed a taste for alchoholic. That was when he should have cut it down or stopped completely. Now he is totally dependent on it and knows no other way and the only way to solve his problem is a drastic change and even then that only depends on if he has the will power and discipline and lifestyle change to go through the rigors required to correct course. People like you however think that you can cure alcoholism by drinking whisky instead of beer, drinking guiness instead of brandy, going to owambe instead of nightclubs or thinking night vigil will solve your alchoholism problems. It doesn’t work that way. When an alchoholic has reached rock bottom, and is ready to turn his life around, he won’t need to tell you, everything about his life will tell you this is a changed man, this is a man who sincerely wants to change his life….and even then he may not succeed but at least you can see he wants to change. You don’t talk about change and still be parading people like Atiku, Tinubu or Obi bit fighting yourselves over them. We are not serious, alchoholism never leave out body!!!!

Atiku, Tinubu, Obi are products of decades of moral and economic mismanagement and decay. They are not the ones that will solve the problem.

I still find it difficult to believe Nigeria Youth dont compare and look into development from one president to another

Yes we know a president cant do anything but a liad down plan can go along way

Obasanjo Bleep up big time
Yes i said so
Him and atiku nearly killed all the industry's in Nigeria
They looted alot of fund ranging From roads to power supply

I will permit us to take things serous and not sell pur future because of chicken change

Lets do the right thing all the time

Obasanjo trying to industrialized Nigeria! - what a joke.
Where's the 60 billion dollars funds meant for electricity him and his vice president atiku looted.

Normally obj suppose dey jail

Honestly! He should shut his mouth up and be ashamed of himself.

Babachukwu:

Yet you mocked Tinubu when he mentioned Agbado.

Nigeria needs to focus on agriculture to create jobs for people.

Let's vote Peter Obi as president to get Nigeria producing and selling again.

Oil money is free money and it intoxicates, anyone that gets free money is bound to be lazy and unuseful to themselves. Oil money has done more havoc to Nigeria than good, it has brought about our population explosion and corruption.
Until oil and gas finish in Nigeria we may find it tough to eradicate poverty in the land and develop as a country.

So true.
We have relegated what can feed us to a last resort profession practised by frustrated individuals and looked down up by all.

Buhari is so busy trying to reshape the oil to favour some people even more.

legionISproteus:
Oil can feed Nigerians, our terrible leaders are too greedy to let the rest of the population benefit from oil.

Just look at the ridiculous retirement package governors, Deputy governors, the president, vice president etc signed for themselves after leaving office. This does not include what they misappropriated while in office, yet Mr. OBASANJO has the gall to say oil can not feed Nigeria.

Do ur research there's absolutely no way nigeria can be able to feed it's population of over 200m people with just exporting 1.2m barrels of crude oil daily. Countries like Qatar and Saudi Arabia have smaller population but they both export more than nigeria's daily quarter of crude oil.
