The government has said that it has suspended crude oil exploration in Borno State and would only resume if it gets sufficient security clearance guaranteeing the safety of its personnel and operations.

Minister of State for Petroleum Resources, Mr. Ibe kachikwu, also stated that it presently cannot confirm the rescue of its personnel by the military and is still awaiting confirmation from the security agencies.

He further stated that the military is still collating data concerning the attack and cannot confirm the actual number of people who died.

Re: FG Suspends Oil Exploration Activities In Chad Basin by kenny987(f):
This country sha! So there's no reliable data or info on how many people were killed on their oil search madness and even NNPC cannot confirm that her personnel were actually rescued as claimed by the army?

This is why a wise man from the East calls this cesspit a zoo but some think that all that separates them from being animals is standing on 2 feet and eating cooked food. A simple figurative expression of the hopeless Nigerian existence is what has myopic idiots foaming at the mouth that they were called animals or that they were residents in a jungle not even zoo!

What sane specie of humans in government cannot confirm the status of its personnel on the hands of a fellow govt agency like its Army which claims to have rescued such ppl and have them in her custody? Even animals establish clear channels of communication to enable them track n look out for each other but in Nigeria, animals in government cannot confirm the status of its staff from the Army after over 24hrs of alleged rescue!

History...this APC and lies. Instead of them to openly say no crude oil was discovered. These old fools will always manipulate and swindle the gullible minds. They said the crude oil in Niger Delta will soon be worthless in the International Market and here they are spending billions in search of same. Same way they said Biafra is dead and buried but today they are talking about it. Confused group of locals.

Oil prospectors abducted by Boko Haram militants during an attack in Magumeri in Northern Borno State on Tuesday were officials of the Nigerian National Petroleum Corporation (NNPC) and some members of staff of the University of Maiduguri (UNIMAID) who had gone to make a final collection of soil samples in preparation for oil exploration in the area.

The group was traveling in a convoy of eight Hilux vans under the protection of Nigerian troops.

All the vehicles were snatched by the militants. Some of the soldiers in the convoy were killed while othersescaped to a nearby village.

The abducted UNIMAID staff include Dr. J.V Militus, Dr. N.Y Solomon, Manaja N Uba, Yusuf Ibrahim, Alhaji Kolo, Daniel Birma and a technologist from the Department of Soil Sciences whose name was simply given as Mohammed.

Re: FG Suspends Oil Exploration Activities In Chad Basin by repogirl(f): 5:47pm On Jul 27, 2017
Lol! Planned work!

That dry place where there is no oil. As if we dont know theyvdiverted the money to their private coffers and now used a planned boko haram attack as the reason to stop exploration. They know people will ask questions if they suddenly ended the fake oil exploration and they had to make up a seemingly plausible excuse which discerning people can see through ofcourse.

They want us to really believe the kidnap of a few people is enough to stop a serious company from finding crude? If it were like that, oil companies would hve run from Nigerdelta nah.

And according to them people died but up till now, they can't confirm the number? Chai! See lie!

Leaders that can't plan ahead,even if they successfully discover oil,it will take 10-15yrs to bring it on stream that's 2027 at least.By then oil producing Norway has banned all petrol and diesel vehicles with France and England following in 2040.....


After France announced earlier this month that it plans on banning new petrol and diesel cars by 2040, now the British government is about to announce similar measures this week.

The move is in reaction to increasingly poorer air quality in the country and especially in urban regions – like London.

A government spokesman said via The Guardian:

“Poor air quality is the biggest environmental risk to public health in the UK and this government is determined to take strong action in the shortest time possible. That is why we are providing councils with new funding to accelerate development of local plans, as part of an ambitious £3bn programme to clean up dirty air around our roads.”

Previous versions of the plan were believed to be too weak to have any impact, but the government has now reportedly updated it to include the ban by 2040.

It’s later than others’ goals, like Norway aiming for 2025, but those are just goals while France and UK seem to be actually talking about a government enforced “ban” on new car sales that are not “zero emission vehicles” like electric vehicles....
