shimolv:Nigerians una eye go clear las las, Ojukwu saw this in 1967 and try to warn Nigerians, but instead the same fulanis used Nigerians to fight their fellow citizens so that they can capture Nigeria. That is why a fulani man can come from anywhere in Africa and kill your brothers in your village and the government will back them up. |

The so call Fulani in the North only complain when they are not in charge. Nobody has ever talked about budget through out Buhari tenor. Now that Tinubu has removed their hand from most of the MDA they realised the oil in the south belongs to them I am not a fan of Tinubu but I think the man has done well in that aspect. Buhari appointed Northerners to head all MDA no one complained now they have become intelligent overnight. Motherfucker 4 Likes 1 Share |

JoeEeL: ^^^ He isn't a 'bumbling slowpoke'. The 'mindset' you deride has prevailed above all others in this country's entire post-independence history. It has shaped this country's current reality - and it appears it will shape its future as well unless... You don't get to control (and keep controlling) the affairs of tens of millions of your countrymen by being a slowpoke. You don't! JoeEeL: ^^^ The British. JoeEeL: ^^^ It isn't 'crap'. It is highly effective political brinksmanship, exploited to perfection by the likes of Dr. Bugaje...and it succeeds precisely because there is something like the North. Northern Nigeria does exist. It is a geographical reality and to a certain extent, also a political one. To pretend it doesn't exist is very, very unwise. JoeEeL: ^^^ Yes they are. These ethnicities were all found in the Northern Protectorate in what is now known today as Nigeria. JoeEeL: ^^^ Ok. But it works. You cannot deny that it works for them. It is the worst kind of demagoguery but goddamit, it works. JoeEeL: ^^^ They are not fools! They are not fools!! Their success in Ilorin proves this beyond all reasonable doubt. You don't get to seize territory and keep it for over 100 years by being foolish...fools don't get to impose their way of life on captured territory and successfully 'persuade' the natives to renounce their own customs and traditions (the Isese controversy comes to mind) as heathen, pagan nonsense.

It is very easy, We southerners are ready to give up the offshore oil to the neighbourhood countries by dissociating ourselves from the landmass of the north if that is contained in the UN convention of 1982 We are ready to manage our soil oil and gas by ourselves, We say no to northern Nigeria land, hence United Nation can then allocate the offshore oil to next neighbourhood country with the largest landmass The north think they have sense, You need the south to enter the sea, and you cannot bully us to claim oil, if the south breakup from the north, the offshore oil you are claiming will still belong to the south alone as the UN convention didn't mention control over the sea nautical miles as a function of land mass, The North should lay claim to Sahara desert and not the sea in our backyard Nonsense from a quota system and half-baked dr my foot 1 Like 1 Share |

Lovit: Igbos keep forming alliance with North since the late 50s but still getting relegated to the background. That is the true definition of as*licking. If any Northerner talk bad about Tinubu tomorrow, he will instantly become your favourite. 😂 But Yorubas are not you guys mate. |

codemaniacs: You guys are laughable. You have a North that are the far majority in both houses of national assembly and can make or unmake any law that concerns you. The top 10 jobs at NNPC are controlled by Northerners. Here is a Northerner telling you they control over 75% of Nigerias land. But you still dont know you are in Northern domination? The only time you people remember domination is if has to do with an Easterner. But if it has to do with a Northerner, you people will just fold and bow down Laughable |

gidgiddy: Ibibio Ijaws kalabari efik e.t.c are also Easterners but like fu:lanis hiding behind "northerners" you an i:gbo is now trying to hide behind "Easterner" you're the one that's laughable. When oil was found in Bayelsa your I:gbo ancestors wanted complete control over it instead of giving the Ijaws complete control and now that your ancestors failed to respect and protect the interest of other Easterners you're having sleepless nights.. Your igbo ancestors created problems for southern Nigerians especially your fellow Easterners by abolishing regionalism and now you want problems created by greedy and corrupt I:gbo men to the be solved by the SW you must be very foo:lish and even more foo:lish for using emotional blackmail. |

shimolv: How many of our leaders came out to contest the claim? They will all be quiet and say nothing, that was the reason why there was no significant projects in the South to increase our oil and gas capabilities, because Buhari spent billions of dollars searching for oil in the North, money meant for developing on our existing Oil and Gas industry, billions was sent to the north to search for oil and nothing was found. 1 Like |

It is not a controversial statement. Go back to our constitution, which is the grund norm. Look at what it says about the ownership of natural resources. According to the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, the ownership of natural resources is vested in the Nigerian state itself. The idea that there is an oil producing state is at variance with our constitution. It is an idea manufactured by an ignorant mind, a mind that does not even know the Constitution of the Federal Republic of Nigeria. Nobody can own the oil, gold, or whatever natural resources that God has given this country, except the Nigerian state designs another process of ownership. A classic example of a circular argument. Northerners use their numerical advantage to erase the idea of State rights of oil resources in the Nigerian constitution... because of their selfish agenda. Then they turn around and point to the very same constitution to paint others as ignorant for demanding States rights of oil resources. |

shimolv: Although, the northern political class are politically intelligent, I dislike their hypocrisy, entitlement mentality and greed in this country's affairs. However, the division of the South is giving the North an upper hand. Until the South wakes up in unity and take the bull by the horn by changing the fraudulent constitution, the North will continue to get the upper hand. |

Fujiyama:What reality? You are also deluded. How does the land mass in the north relate to the natural resources in the south? What sort of stupiid entitlement is this? Anyway, I don't blame people like you, I blame the British who created this contraption and filled the minds of the northerners with a false sense of ownership. Very soon we will know who truly owns the oil. |
