Shey you won't come out of ghost mode for me? 🥺

Ihebu4chelsea:
NDDC is trying though.

BlueRayDick:
Are u sure? Because all I've been seeing in the news about NDDC is just corruption, corruption and corruption.

DissTroy:
Hopefully the Government at the center with its unfavourable policy doesn't scare away foreign and private investors from injecting the needed funds and expertise.


It's the same reason many Nigerian youths complain about unemployment - they don't learn marketable in-demand skills and improve on their social capital which they can leverage on. You need to have the skills to be employable in the first place.

As at this moment, there's a particular community I know which has been alloted crane operator jobs, but there are few trained crane operators from the place. I mean guaranteed employment this minute. That's the problem - relevant skills.

Between February 2021 and December 2022, I and a few individuals from my LGA sponsored pipe-fittng trainings for persons of our LGA extraction primarily (and the whole state secondarily).
Someone on this thread went to Facebook then returned here attempting to troll me with it, stating I was wasting my time by referring to what we were doing.
You can local-search "Pipe-fitting" in the Foreign Affairs section to May 2021.

Good news is, 3 years later, at least 37% of the persons we got trained have been employed (with evidence) by the companies I mentioned earlier, and the Paramount Ruler gave us a special recognition recently.

We shouldn't even be the ones funding any such thing. That's what the HCDT of the PIA Act of 2021 covers, and more. Billions already paid into the accounts across the Niger-Delta.

And as an individual, you need to acquire skills yourself while hoping for the right opportunities to monetize them. Not everyone would be spoonfed by government or organisations. It's impossible.

Niger Delta youths as a whole need to acquire in-demand skills if they want more than crumbs from these companies. We could negotiate and insist on skilled employments because we had confirmed they are available skilled persons. Better skilled and demanding employment as stipulated by the PIA than screaming "Our oyel!" or "Our land!" and being considered a nuisance.


Good luck and Godspeed.

You are doing well bro, Nice one.

Ideally this is what NDDC is actually supposed to be looking after; they ought to be at the forefront of helping Niger-Delta youths acquire in-demand skills in the oil and gas sector.

That way, the youth would not be too focused on engaging in oil theft and some laying siege on oil companies demanding for deve money all the time.

I'm not fine. 😪

And you know that Essn which you labelled as touts can be used to destabilize election,how? Where you get the info from?

DissTroy:
Well, to NDDC's credit, two nights ago, I confirmed there'd be an official flag off of skill acquisition training this week by the NDDC in my LGA. (I don't know about other LGAs or states.) But until I have evidence its not just for optics instead really advanced trainingz, no comment from me. I've sent someone to be on ground to give me updates.

NDDC isn't even my problem. The PIA is my real concern. According to the Host Community Development Trust, the oil companies MUST pay about 3% of all their earnings annually to the HCDT which would be managed in conjunction with representatives from host communities. Those monies are already being paid.

Some of us have confirmed the names of these representatives for our place even though they were mute it until we started asking loud questions. One of them a former senator. Those ones I can at least hold responsible as we know their homes and families and we are all interrelated so they'd be walking on glass if they try violence to silence those speaking out.

HCDT is the real money and our focus not subject to partisan politics. It's fixed and statutory.

-----------
If you are from the Niger Delta reading this, just know your clan and LGA CLOs, youth leaders, traditional leaders, and politicians have been quietly siphoning monies belonging to the your communities from the HCDT to their pockets and cornering alloted jobs they don't announce. Don't just believe me - go digging. Your Governor is likely oblivious of what's going on. Likely. It's all hush-hush.

State allocation has not improved in any form judging with the worthlessness of Naira..


What 1 billion could do 9 years back,7 billion cannot do now...so what is the increased in allocation you are talking about..

Infrastructural developments (Nigeria)is hinged on dollars ....so how do u want improvement if in reality d allocation u are happy with is smaller in reality when juxtaposed with d dollar...

OasisX:


.....why nah?! Don't gimme heartattack.

OasisX:
.....DG know what they are doing. It ain't a must NNPCL or Major Marketers buy from you. IPMAN is ready, sell to them - afterall they control 80% of filling Stations in the Country.
