KADUNA – The north will never discover oil in the Chad basin of Nigeria even after it has wasted $3 billion, approximately (N900 billion) in oil exploration in the basin, said Senator Shehu Sani, Chairman, Senate Committee on foreign and domestic debts.

Sani, made the above affirmation Monday when members of Kaduna State Students Union paid him a courtesy call in his Kaduna office.

This in variance with the position of the Chairman, of the Northern Nigeria Development Company, (NNDC) Alhaji Bashir Dalhatu, who had said last year NNDC would commence the exploration of oil and gas in the said basin and the upper Benue trough.

Said Sani: “Oil exploration in the north has been carried out back to days far beyond that of former President Jonathan Goodluck.

I am calling on President Mohamadu Buhari to order a probe into this questionable search for oil. Past leaders have amassed wealth through this venture, and I want the president to investigate this.

“If we cannot fine oil, we must get our money back because so far over $3 billion US Dollars had been wasted on oil exploration in the north, particularly in the Chad Basin and Benue trough.

One man that is thinking properly nowadays

Past administrations again!..PDP..

D sooner dey realize what shehu said and go back to farming, d better for them



The north has no oil but they have filling stations every where, it's more like the northerners are more dependent on oil......
If God wanted Nigeria to break up, there would have been oil in the north especially KANO....

Hmmmm..... Someone told me that assuming oil was originally found in the north, they would have secceded from Nigeria decdecades ago.

Of course.

How can God allow oil to be found in the north? Nigerian oil is found in south and some part of east yet the northerners are ruling and controlling this country as their own,what will happen if the oil is found in northern states? God is never a partial God

stfu,are u God

Nigeria politicians make money, any ways.

Why are there not looking for oil in other parts of Nigeria? So only the North deserve oil exploration, between $3 billion is a lot of money, what happens if nothing is found? This is why they struggle for power by all means, to take from the South and develope the North, it is well

Interesting, that money wasted so far must be returned.

If he knows the geology of the northern Nigeria, he will not say such of a thing.There are crude oil basin in the northern Nigeria, only that cost of exploration due to thickness of the formation.

People like professor Zarbosky have done alot of research on northern Nigeria sedimentary basin......

They will find oil there, it's just a matter of more billions and it will be found.

Really?

God forbid

NONSENSE
