youyr point is baseless and meaningless.yunck

These companies are doing business in the niger-delta and have their pipelines in the delta.why would they have their offices far from the delta where they recruit none indegines and send them to work in the delta.



So you are saying Niger deltans don't work in any of the headquarters in Lagos? You guys just bring stupid emotions and sentiments into serious issues. So if the oil companies relocate to Niger delta, all their workers must be from the region even though most of them prefer to kidnap and get free money rather than work. You think the oil companies are senseless? They know how you people will force useless and brainless touts on them in the name of employing people from your region. Oil business is not ogogoro...you can build your own oil company and put the headquarters in niger delta, abi is anybody stopping you?

Sharap there! U jus tlk based on what u read online. R there not oil workers in ND?

If these companies r based there, d crime rate in those towns will reduce as there will b more opportunities for both skilled & unskilled.

First reduce the crime rate and you'll how business will come . Not the other way around. Use your brain man for f●ck sake !!!

A business concerns makes decisions based on Security, Profit and ease of doing business. Provide a secure environment and the companies will fall over themselves to relocate.

my friend!I believe you know the meaning of BUSINESS SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY

The oil companies have no obligation to the community because they ay tax .

The cowardly idiotts should face the Nigerian state that oppresses them,takes money from the region and shares it to 36 states 700 LGAs and the FG . THAT IS THE REAL PROBLEM. Deal with it.

Why not ask the Petroleum Minister and NNPC to relocate to the Delta.

All of them shouting about moving headquarters to Niger delta did not see anything wrong when the self centred asari dokubo built his university in Republic of Benin. Why didn't he build the school in niger delta to improve the economy and help the people he claimed to.be fighting for? Most of the stupid senators talking sentimental crap of relocation have businesses in Lagos. They steal money and go.buy houses in dubai and London.

You want them to relocate so that you can threaten them to employ ogogoro siping youths who know nothing than to kidnap, steal and shout oyel oyel like headless chickens. If you want oil companies in the niger delta, go and build one yourself. Instead of them to hold their governor and NNDC leaders responsible, they'll be making stupid threats up and down.

let us get some things right before coming online,saying gibberish,spilling out our so called fact which is mostly premised on ignorance and bloated ego

if u want to site the headquarters of a company,u do this based on vital statistics and data
*You consider a place that will be open for all to see (friendly,publicity,hype) or why do you think we have many HQS in VI
*nearness to the source of finance:ask lagos state government why not chose badagry for FTZ over lekki,,Believe me or not the sitting of a HQ determines a lot the success of a company ,especially the big ones.


if you think foreign lenders,bank CEO'S will visit you in swampy,muddy terrain with people as if we are still in 3rd century ...u better wake up

ask yourself,why is Lagos and a state like OGUN attracting so much investment and bigger states in the north are just there big for nothing...reason b4 u talk

If the Niger Delta is not safe for the Oil Companies, who have clearly Bribed the DisHonorable Members of the House of Representatives, then the Niger Delta should henceforth not be safe to drill crude oil.

That is my final input on this subject.

then they should remove all their pipelines from the unsafe region and take it to where their headquarters is that is safe. APC government think they are wise, they're just buying time for the bigger fight that will soon start in the Creeks

There is a good way to make them relocate .PAY THEM by reducing their tax payment for 10 years .The obvious location would be Uyo but sadly Akpabio did not have that kind of vision. It is not too late. The reality now is this we MUST prepare for a POST OIL ECONOMY
In 2011 we had 37 billion barrels of proven reserves which will run out in 50 years from 2011(45 now) and when you consider the NATIONAL DEBT .About half of that oil is already spoken for.

So stop deceiving yourselves about the future of oil in Nigeria

they dont think....if all oil investors leave then the south south would be grounded........they dont plant food dont have financial hubs....the south southerners are mostly rural..........thats just facts......even if they have 100% resource control they wouldnt understand how to use it....the thinking deltans know its the igbos medling in south south business because they understand more better how the financial world works....the igbos are threating the south southerners like children...

All these South South boys just cry like babies. What is the big deal in siting your headquarters in another state. The FG collects the tax anyway not the state govt.

You guys are only thinking like this because it's not your investment, is it not better to site their HQ where they know it is safe for life than an uncertain region. A region that can start bombing and kidnapping tomorrow.

I was in PH in 2015, if you see the convoy of a white man probably an Oil worker you would think it was a Governor or president. This you can't see in Lagos, you will probably just see the White man and his driver or a white man jogging on the road. He knows he is relatively safe and can live life not live life in hiding or with Armed security because of fear of kidnapping.

Do you know how much Chevron and Mobil has spent building their headquarters over the years, you now just want them to abandon the facility and start building another one spending millions of dollars again. They don't think with sentiments like you guys do, they think business wise.

These militants see these kidnapping and facility bombing as business it's no more agitation for a greater Niger Delta.

If relative peace comes to the Niger delta today these Oil companies will naturally relocate back nobody needs to tell them.
Over 95% of AGIP's workforce are indigenes of south south. Yet you still them dress like paupers for fear of kidnap. Enter the facility and see them change cars every month. They dress like that to make their people believe that they're poor in order not to kidnap them.. With Agip boasting of very high percentage of indigenes in their workforce, they're still the worst hit when it comes to vandalization and sabotage of oil facilities.

When there's kidnappings and all you mentioned gets down, can't you use your head to know that it's because there's no development there? When you suck niger delta oil you use it to love-vendor the other states, don't even start saying the oil states are the highest paid, answer this out of all the oil blocks in Nigeria is it not true that 95% are owned by NorthandAss?
