So because shell BP is shutting down their production due to unfavorable economic condition and the present administration`s lack of direction, and you are here spewing up blackmail. Guess, Buhari should realize that any case against shell will not be decided by his pocketed Nigerian judiciary. You guys should tell this govt to be focus oooo
By now every sensible Nigerian has come to the realization that there is something more dangerous than "corruption", "incompetence"is more dangerous than corruption...... A Man can be corrupt and still be profitable but an Incompetent man makes you lose all you are worth and jeopardize your future.....

Buhari has shown himself incompetent in all ramifications ....... The money we have lost by the crash of the Naira alone in the eight month administration of Buhari should equal and exceed all the monies that can ever be stolen by the Jonathan administration ..... Our economy has slowed down and its growth rate is now less than the 10th in Africa. The contracting nature of our economy means we have lost all the economic gains by Jonathan to such a docile government
what are the economic gain that you benefited from the last regime?

You are talking about naira losing its value. Did you know what past regime did? Sharing worth of dollars to traditional rulers to entice them. Where are those dollars? Naira is losing its value is what everyone is talking about.

When the present government is doing her best to re-structure the economy and way of living, you are spewing trash here.

Lets support this administration and rehabilitate Nigeria from its dieing stage.

Here I rest.

Slow down..... your rambling gives you away as incompetent of logical reasoning. You do not know anything about the case and instead to seek to learn, you show a bravado of ignorance.

Let me pick some missteps from your comment
1. Where did you get the information that Shell (Shell BP in Nigeria?) are shutting down production? Some of you just say rubbish.
2. can you supply any information or evidence where the quote was reported? "shell BP is shutting down their production due to unfavorable economic condition and the present administration`s lack of direction"
3. Do you think in all sincerity, the American, British and Hague support corruption? Dan Etete, the man behind this sleeze and thievery, his in jail in Paris, yet, business transactions on a block fraudulently acquired still went on under GEJ's government.....Is that a case you expect Shell as a global company, who have learnt lessons from past cases to fight for?
4. Economic gains under GEJ? grin grin grin grin grin grin I know you guy's have no single iota of morals and integrity. The corruption under GEJ is fresh air to you lot. You support people that steal, and attack the man trying to recover our stolen wealth? No wonder US Sec. of State John Kerry said "....It has been reported that over 50 people including government officials stole over $9 billion in Nigeriaā€¯.He added that money that was meant for arms to fight the Islamist sect, Boko Haram, was kept by Generals in the most populous black nation in the world."

But what do I know? You're just an irredeemable GEJ sycophant.....

Well I have seen the direction this government is towing. It reminds me of a controversial statement made by a sovereign member of the northern oligarch, stressing the need for an under carpet conspiracy to be held onto by the region, in order to remain in power.

Dan Etete is the only southerner who can boast of absolute control of OPL 245 and probably the only southerner to be awarded an oil well. As it is now, the oil block where corrupt practises on a large scale has been identified is that of Ettete...

As if we Nigerians dont know the high wired level of corruption going on at par in Northern owned oil blocs. Dan Etete connections with GEJ worsens the matter.

I am surprised at all...the vendetta is on course and the mission is to revoke all the favours and financial empowerment Gej granted his men and the region.....

they want to continue to make us leeches....so that we have no option but to continually look unto abuja and its brothers for help.....in so doing they continue to remain in power transferring it to their kids. . ..

Dangote and his northern brothers and co oil thieves in the west can remain saints in as much as their sovereign control of Nigeria over the rest is intact.

It is just a matter of time.....how long can they clip our wings....until a man is born!




Bros,

Before you go too far in this ethnic-oriented delusion, Dan Etete as a former minister of Petroleum, awarded OPL 245 to himself.

It won't cost a thing to use your brain you know?

Just search Malabu and read about the case in the UK and Italy. If Nigeria doesn't go after shell when most of the work has been done abroad, then we are screwed.

Don't just waste your time online spreading opinions, read facts and be well informed.

Sometimes it would be better to observe things or just carry out a little research.

This issue was brought before the courts in Italy (ENI is Italian) with various fines and punitive measures taken by "foreign courts" against their own.

533 Million pounds was found to have been paid to Nigerian "Big Men" who helped secure the fraudulent sale.

As usual, the country was shortchanged and ridiculed as the field is estimated to hold about 9 billion barrels of oil.

I know you would love to make Buhari out as evil yet, even foreign governments have found the two oil companies complicit in such monumental fraud.

My brother, which money do you want GMB to use in creating employment, improve infrastructure and security? Nigeria is dead broke.... No foreign reserves, crude sales have plummeted, even the price is nothing to write home about.

In light of this there are three ways to go about this..... Either they borrow more money and mortgage our ailing future more, increase taxes astronomically thereby suffering the citizens or they recover stolen funds which are lying fallow somewhere and meant for the country initially.

Calling in investors to develop our other resources is not an immediate solution as it will take some years to develop, build plants and so on. This action has been delayed for too long by a powerful few. Do you know that some of our resources are been mined illegally?

If you were in charge what will you do? Think critically about it before you judge.

Just my 2cents.

I doff my hat for you..............

When you retrieve this type of oil block, Nigeria would likely witness an increase in earnings from crude oil. This would improve the dollar supply and reduce the pressure on the devaluation of Naira.

I have imagined the impact of the fall in the value of the Naira. This article discusses the forces of the supply and demand side. And concludes with suggestion to manage both angles http://therenaissanceng.com/naira-devaluation-emefieles-battle-to-save-nigerian-economy

For those who don't know the full details, trying to retrieve the block from the current owners will only lead to more trouble and no progress.

The block in question has about 25% of Nigeria ' s oil reserve. The block was not developed for over a decade due to multiple legal suits over ownership of the block.

Jonathan government simply played the role of an intermidiary between the warring factions.

Money was paid by the multinationals under the settlement agreement to the fg and the fg in turn paid the money to malabu effectively stopping the legal suits and allowing development to commence on the oil block.

Some thing to note are.

Nigeria did not lose any money in the oil block deal. Abacha had already 'dashed' the oil block to Etete's malabu previously. And Obasanjo had retrieved it from malabu and given it to Shell. So at the time of the intervention by Jonathan's government, the block had already been given out.

There are legally binding agreements between the FG and Shell and between the FG and malabu with regards to the oil block.

Trying to back out of the legal agreement now will only lead to another round of litigation that will ensure that the block is not developed in the next decade.

Buhari should respect previous legal agreements or he will get Nigeria into unnecessary troubles

So Thief Obasanjo had given Shell the oil block.
That old idiot was on a mission to destroy and sell Nigeria!

Thief Obasanjo, was the same criminal who willingly gave away Bakassi.

If I know Thief Obasanjo he would have ignored due process in handing over the oil block to Shell.

FG has every right to ignore the fraudulent agreements that saw the oil block handed to Shell.
