They have to ask since you are just busted for same scam and no known oil wells in these states, you are known to lie about everything, plus you are landlocked. You ibo see lying as a weapon of survival, but it will get to a point no single soul would take you serious about anything.
What is your problem and why would you keep lying to yourself? You are miserable and filled with hate and jealousy. Its sickening!

It is only right to cure the affliction of ignorance when discovered, so please kindly enlighten me on how Abia is an oil producing state.

And Imo?

How and when did they start producing oil? I'm not talking discovery of crude oil presence, I am talking production in the class of Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa Ibom.

[quote author=Collynzo9 post=28963354]This shows how Ignorant you are.
Ohaji/Egbema LGA alone in Imo produces more oil than the whole of EDO state[/quote]

Really?
Then how does Edo get rated to produce much more than Imo and Abia combined?

Sir, thanks to NYSC, some of served in Abia, even if for a few months before redeploying.
The real state of poverty and backwardness in that state is the reason why I'm surprised it in an oil producing state even if below 20%.
@ the emboldened: Really? And what is the back up of your statistics? What economic activities are there in Abia to accrue for such an heavenly per capita considering the rate of emigration out of the state to Lagos/Abuja?

You need to chill sir.
emigration in igbo land is not always economic related... it's just a culture... do u discover dat der was a time Amaechi was complaining dat Gej gave out rivers oil wells to Bayelsa and Abia... if they don't hv oil which is dat.

LAGOS -- A spokesman for Royal Dutch/Shell Group's (RD,
SC) Nigerian unit said the company has shut in 35,000
barrels-a-day of crude oil at one of its flow stations in the
Niger Delta.
The spokesman said the company was forced to shut in
the station Monday, after protesters attacked the facility.
The spokesman, Bisi Ojediran, said the community was
protesting against the state's choice of a representative
for the board of the Niger Delta Development
Commission.
Each of Nigeria's nine oil-producing states has a
representative on the board of the Commission, which
oversees the development of the Niger Delta region.
Ojediran said the oil facilities shut in are the Imo River 1
and 3, in the Owaza Community in Abia State, southeast
Nigeria, which is also part of the Niger Delta.
A statement by Shell on the shutdown says 10 million
standard cubic feet a day of natural gas supplied by Shell
to the Nigerian Gas Company and industries in Aba has
also been affected.
Aba is an industrial town in southeast Nigeria.
Shell , through its joint venture company with the
Nigerian government, Shell Petroleum Development Co.,
is the country's biggest oil producer.

Emigration is influenced by several factor and for Igbo it is economic
For Fulani it is socio-economic.

Lagos, 6 other states control 90% of cash transactions in Nigeria – CBN
on May 27, 2013 at 12:06 am in Finance, SMS News alert

The Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) has said that Lagos and six other states control about 90 per cent of cash transactions in the country. The other states are Rivers, Anambra, Abia, Kano, Ogun and the Federal Capital Territory (FCT).

CBN Deputy Governor, Operations, Mr. Tunde Lemo, who disclosed this, said this was the reason why the abovementioned states were been slated for the second phase of the cash-less project billed to kick off on the July 1st. Acknowledging that there have been and there are still challenges with the cashless project, he said most of them are being resolved.

He listed one of the major challenges to include interconnectivity in some of the clusters, which he said is being addressed.

Lemo said that besides the use of alternative channels of transactions such as Point of Sales (PoS), the cashless project would be driven through the telephone. Nigeria is second in number of mobile phone users in sub Saharan Africa after South Africa, which is also the largest economy in the region.

Lemo also said the cashless policy had been successful in Lagos, adding that the number of Point of Sale (PoS) machines in Lagos has increased significantly from about 5,000 when the policy took off last year, to over 150,000.

“We still have a few challenges, but if I look back, I really would say that we have done a lot to transform the payment system in Lagos through PoS,” he said.

The cashless policy, whose implementation began in Lagos in January, last year, is aimed at reducing the dominance of cash in the system. The policy specifies penal charges for individuals and corporate organisations that want to withdraw or lodge cash above prescribed limits. Under the policy, the CBN pegged the daily cumulative cash withdrawal or deposit limit for individual accounts at N500,000 per day and N3 million per day for corporate accounts.

Just a week ago, the Chief Executive Officer, Electronic Payment Providers Association of Nigeria (E-PPAN), Mrs. Onajite Regha, said the coming on board on the next phase of the cash-less policy in July may raise the value of electronic funds transfer in the country to N160billion per day by the end of the year.

The E-PPAN boss, who spoke in Lagos, said the current value of electronic fund transfers – put at N80billion per day by the CBN, would most likely double because there would be a lot of changes, which would compel people to use e-Fund transfer channels.

The Nigeria Interbank Settlement System (NIBSS) is handling transactions worth about N20billon daily, while the Nigeria Electronic Funds Transfer is conducting about N60billion worth of transactions daily.

NIBSS provides the infrastructure for automated processing, settlement of payments and fund transfer instructions between banks, discount houses and card companies in Nigeria. It is owned equally by all licensed banks in Nigeria, and the CBN. Discount houses operating in Nigeria also hold substantial shares.

I have done that but apart from Rivers, Delta, Bayelsa, Akwa Ibom and Edo. The others are generally brushed aside or mentioned in passing.

My inference from the above is that the 5 states actually bear the weight of oil profuction and the other states cannot even sustain Nigeria alone with whatever oil they produce.

Lastly, I generally do not expect an oil producing state to be dead like Abia is. It should be merged with Imo, honestly.
