Hehehe you wan hook me for corner ba.!!!
OK Agric ensures there are no riots like Venezuela which would divert money to internal security.
so we agree fg invested hundred percent on oil infrastructure
and ND DOESN'T DESERVE anymore than their allocation by your premise.
they should buy oil blocs and develop like everyone else.

The bone of contention here was to drink their oil right? Let all the oil well/blocs owners relinquish the ownership, make ND see enough to drink.

why would any business man relinquish his investment when he can order army to vanquish you?
will you allow Armed robber to chase you from your place of work or abode without a fight.
they should ask their governors and senators for their money. not investors who have paid their useless elders off.

Foolish people. You want to keep milking us dry. Your cattle, food, solid minerals are yours but our oil is for everyone. Mumu. Eat your yams!! We also have food and if we aren't self sufficient, we import from Cameroon!!, Their food is cheaper than the one from the north.

Rubbish!!!

As a matter of fact, food from northern Nigeria is waaaaay too expensive. Importing from Cameroon, and Ghana isn't a bad idea at all.

Exactly!! I have Cameroon friends that tell me that food is alarmingly expensive in Nigeria when compared to Cameroon.

I don't know about Ghana tho.

I dont know when the MB will get sense, these same so called Benue leaders have remained quite & even in solidarity with those subjugating them despite the ethnic cleansing going on against them. Well, I wont cry more than the bereaved, they should continue playing to the gallery for political crumbs at the detriment of their people. RUBBISH!!

south africa, kenya, ethopia, tanzania etc..... they don´t have oil

mind you now you are producing 2million barels par day maybe by the time you lose Bendel states, the amout will drop drastically. you will still see dat we will still be oil producing countrie and before you find buy for your oil we will also find other means to generate revenue.

but you will lose the lagos and abuja cities forever.

and all your milionairs will claim citizenship with us because all their live archivements and their family are already in lagos or abuja or kano. then you will have to state from the begining while we will continue with our progress

How much is the yam, cattle or tomato contributing to the federation account?

And how much is oil contributing to the same account?

You run your cattle, tomato, yam, other agricultural businesses and mining yourselves. Let the Niger Deltans run their oil businesses themselves and pay taxes to the federal government where applicable.

Is that too difficult to understand?

Yea that will be better. Everybody run ur own and pay taxes and lets see who will suffer more.

NB oil is already worthless in international market.

Honestly let's restructure the fiscal resource administration. These people from the Niger delta have actually been cheated all these while. The oil had become a cause to Nigeria jor. Yes keep your yam and leave their oil.

Agric contribute 50 % of GDP. oil 12%

I think if this your calculation or assumption is right many States won't have been indebted by now, and shouldn't have been waiting for the statutory allocation which is more than 90% based on oil from the FG.

In as much as i don't support the way the Federal Government is treating the Niger Delta, here is one thing you should know partaking to your question.

The economy has enjoyed sustained economic growth for a decade, with annual real GDP increasing by around 7%; it was 6.3% in 2014. The non-oil sector has been the main driver of growth, with services contributing about 57%, while manufacturing and agriculture, respectively contributed about 9% and 21%. The economy is thus diversifying and is becoming more services-oriented, in particular through retail and wholesale trade, real estate, information and communication.

If there
have been injustices against
one particular group in this
country, let’s address it and
not by taking the law into their
hands. Senator joseph kennedy wakku

And you had to wait till they took the law into their hands before thinking of addressing issues.

It is truely said that Nigerians listen to no warning except low battery. The dwindling oil revenue is now the low battery in this country.
