So the conversation don change from whether the water is drinkable to “stingy”?

Person wey fly from Lagos to SF, na bottle water go make am stingy? Reason am

And what comes out of the water is because it is hard water. Mostly minerals (Calcium). It’s not unhealthy.

U see Delta and Bayelsa states...with kind of money these two state have...I don't expect their citizens to be unemployed.

How can u be this rich in oil and ur graduates are roaming the streets like wanderers.

Akwaibom is known to have good roads but it is the worst of them all. The number of unemployed victims in that state is worrisome and troubling.

They are very docile people,there are places in Akwaibom state where u see good roads but in a month,not up to 50 cars can pass there,reason is the people are very poor.

The governors can't attract investment like is being done in Enugu,Abia and Anambra statesnor even Lagos and Ogun.

I pity these three state of Delta,Akwaibom and Bayelsa.

Corpers in these states can relate well.
there are places in Akwaibom state where u see good roads but in a month,not up to 50 cars can pass there,reason is the people are very poor.

This statement is very misleading. Maybe you are referring to rural areas and if that the case then then same can be said for every other rural areas in Nigeria. Note that Akwa Ibom State has a high population density and is a Civil Service State. Akwa Ibomites are also very hardworking and do not depend on government for their needs. Your observation is flawed.

Exactly this is why we buy water, Im trying to stress the point that government is not responsible for drinking water, so this should not be a yard stick to measure same water in Nigeria. Also my car failed MOT 1st time in London reason bad road as my front outside wheel suspension bushing is out of place due to pot holes, not as bad as 9ja but what is bad is bad.SO no full maintained road anywhere in the world bross.
YOu cant talking perfect when it comes to 9ja nah try them all dey try in midst of silly corruption.

That hard water is drinkable fam! Very drinkable. That many people don't drink it, is a personal choice. So yes, government has provided drinking water. Is it the barest minimum drinkable water? Perhaps. But government has provided it.

And we nor dey ask for perfection. Make it barest minimum. Delta State with all the wealth and we cannot have decent roads? Decent pipe borne water? Let our government give us the same level of bad UK roads. And talking about no full maintained roads. You should go to Saudi or Kuwait to see road maintenance. Or how they provide quality drinking water despite being in a desert.

Delta State is in a terrible state. We supposedly lay the golden egg. Our governors should upgrade the state!

Besides, Ondo State added 27.1 billion scf, while Anambra and Imo produced 7.4 billion scf and 6.4 billion scf respectively. Abia contributed 4.46 billion scf of gas, while Lagos also recorded zero, consistent with its performance in oil.


For many of you who want to start hitting your dry chest, read the above.

Ondo state production dwarf the entire SE in both oil and gas.

Ondo>SE, let this sink.

Between Ondo state is a SW state

ViceGovernor:
Lagos is being developed and because Yoruba people have long laid a blueprint for the betterment of that state.

You are talking oil money as if before oil agriculture from Western Nigeria wasn't what supported Lagos/Nigeria.

The most developed cities in the world are cities that are closer to sea.
Good one. Tell us another joke.

LagosOrigin:
Lagos zero oil and gas production. .
But na dem make noise pass



Imo state produced 6.32 million barrels

Anambra produced 4.77 million barrels

Abia produced 3.41 million barrel of oil production.


Gas production
Lagos zero

Anambra produced 7.4 billion.

Imo produced 6.4 billion.

Abia produced 4.46 billion.

For the records
Imo state alone has the highest gas deposit in west Africa.

We are beginning to see the true leech state that produces zero contribution to our oil production but feeds fat from the national Treasury because of her former federal capital status.

Lagos will collapse if the federal government stop feeding her.
This renaming of streets thing pain you well, well sha, ah ah.

Why not play Ndi Yoruba return match and you too rename streets in your wonderful Imo state.

Anyway, I too look forward to federal government "stopping to feed" Lagos state so we can all rush to Imo state to make our fortune.

Bushman, Germany produces no oil but makes more money from oil than Nigeria and many other oil producing countries.

Lagos produces no oil but is home to a private refinery which is the largest of it's kind in the world.

Mehn this is huge and commendable. If its possible to do better, it's encouraged
That's not commendable, how can Iran and their sister nations have 4 times our daily opec quota a country lesser in population than Nigeria, why can't we have such daily output like Saudi and rest and rake in oil money
