#FACT!!!!


The Niger Delta man is physically and mentally Lazy.

The region is so bad that there is no Billionaire in the entire region whose wealth has crossed 2 generations. Whereas the Igbo Man, Yoruba man and the Hausa man would build an empire and start setting up his sons and relatives to takeover and expand the empire to last long beyond him, the Niger Delta man once he becomes a billionaire or a millionaire would rather live large, buy multiple cars, marry more wives, birth more kids that he would not provide for and die almost broke leaving his estate in disarray.

The Youths grow up on this belief that they can be lazy and expect to get rich from terrorizing Non-Indigenes and extorting businesses in their locality, selling off their ancestral lands and blowing up oil installations for settlement claims money.

All developmental projects embarked on by the Companies (oil and otherwise), the Government, e.t.c are all sabotaged by the same Niger Deltans who are the primary beneficiaries. I remember how a school with a budget of almost 100 Million was awarded to a Contractor and when he arrived the site to commence work, the Chief and the Youths started harassing him and in the end, the Chief demanded 15 million Naira for him to sign a Work Completion Certificate for the Contractor. The Contractor ofcourse offered the Chief 15 Million out of the almost 100 Million, settled the youths with like 2 million Naira and pocketed the rest of the dough. That job was marked as completed on the list. No thanks to the Community people.

I have sat in on several MOU's and I am yet to come out of any one where I can say the representatives of the Community had the best interest of the people they claimed to represent at heart.

I remember how one community demanded that their people be sent on training and paid a salary of 750,000 per month for the duration of the course.. I was like WTF?

Total Nigeria Limited has spent over 1 Million Euros on OML 58 Communities i in Rivers State in the last 6 Years and yet that community does not look like they have ever seen dollars before. Same with NAOC and SPDC amongst others.

If you are a contractor in the Niger Delta, you know all I am saying first hand, if you are not, ask anybody who is to tell you stories.

Its in the Niger Delta that you will get a Contract to fabricate or construct something, after settling the chiefs and elders and youths, they will give you a list of persons who you must employ before you commence work and they will in some cases stipulate their salaries. After you agree, these workers will never turn up to work until its time for salary.

The biggest enemies of the Niger Delta is the Niger Delta.

Dickson did not lie, the Niger Delta Man is Physically, Mentally and Spiritually lazy.

What's the difference between bayelsans and the Lagos island boys

No insults ooo...kindly discuss in a sane manner...i will reply insults for insults..no dulling

An average ijaw man is a drunkard and a womanizer, he is only good at sharing sperm to different women. I respect their women so much, they are the breadwinners in most of there various homes.

Deadlytruth:


Your idiocy has just shown through in your comment which is largely illogical, incoherent and makes no point. No reasonable person with good upbringing would use his father's nyash as his moniker.

pweeryambre:

This is so true as an igbo girl, I once dated a bayelsa man from Nembe town, it wasn't funny... with no focus in life, womanizer, lazy and this guy can drink eh, that is early morning alcohol abuse, our wedding preparations never happend because of his laid back and annoying life style. plus they hardly even travel out of their state.

OrlandoOwoh:
If you've lived in the riverine parts of Bayelsa and Delta states, you'll notice that the people are not used to paying the bills for the power they consume. In order to ward off disconnection, in some places, their representatives (in the Senate, HoR and state houses of assembly) in the communities pay for their bills as constituency projects.

If all these are true about them, then how are they different from Northerners? In fact Northerners might even be better than them.

madridguy:
I am very sure some children of hate will soon evade this thread to raise curse on Gov. Dickson for saying the truth. The same Bayelsans complaining of giving their work to foreigner. May God help our Oyel broda.

Deadlytruth:


Jonathan was not really the best candidate the SS could offer for presidency. Obasanjo studied all the SS governors then and discovered that GEJ was the weakest, most pliable, most lacking in personal vision and self-conviction, and least self asserting; so he chose him as Yaradua's running mate for the purpose of tokenism so that it would be said he made it possible for power to come to the SS. It was the same way the Northerners studied all the southerners in 1998 and found OBJ to be the most pliable and bendable to Northern interests, most resistant to his own Yoruba agenda, the biggest Southern collaborator and lackey of the Northern Hegemony, etc and then chose him too for the tokenism that after all they were kind enough to give it to a Yoruba man whereas he was actually the worst and least likely candidate the Yorubas would offer for presidency if given the total leverage.
What Northerners did to OBJ he too did to the SS. But the difference was that Yorubas were quick to reject OBJ as a Trogan Horse gift from the North while the SS could not see and till now has still not seen that GEJ was a Trojan Horse offer to the SS by OBJ.
