Please, how much have you personally benefited from the oil in Delta Region?

Are you even a Niger Deltan?
Because a Niger Delta man don't go about screaming "Awa oil", "Awa oil" these days.
The people screaming "Awa oil" are people from that region who don't know what the colour of crude oil looks like

Are you sure you are not from Oshogbo?

It is imperative that indigenous people of the south south organise themselves politically into political organisations to vote in political leaders who have a solid dream,vision and action plan to develop the south south. This region is plagued by selfish,vision less and greedy politicians hell bent on stealing the resources of their common wealth. Niger deltans should protest and call for a new political awakening, just like the Arab spring where citizens organised themselves to demonstrate against bad government
