“If the South-South is claiming the North is a parasite on the region, that region should ask itself [s]what were the sources of Nigeria’s revenue before the discovery of oil at Oloibiri in the present Bayelsa State in 1965? What was the significance of oil before its discovery & exploration by the Shell Oil? What revenue did Nigeria use to fund oil exploration?” Chief Abu quipped[/s].This is a very big lie. Foods from the north were sold to the southerners, not given for free or even subsidized Every revenue realized in each region then was used in developing the region, not shared among the regions. Unlike now that the crude oil revenue is shared among all states. 271 Likes 30 Shares |

Nepotism has been the practice of Nigerian presidents of Northern extraction.The current President Almajiri has carried nepotism to the level of insanity. All federal establishments such as the military, judiciary, security agencies, immigration, customs, ports authority, railways, prisons, NTA, NAN, NNPC, aviation, ministries, name it, have all been bedevilled by nepotism.http://saharareporters.com/2020/06/01/northern-nigeria-petroleum-company-bayo-oluwasanmi Talking of double standards.This is the silent equality issue none of them systematically want to talk about-entrenchment of political power.Imagine Prof.Ango Abdullahi saying Agric can sustain Nigeria when they depend on oil like gold. 56 Likes 5 Shares |

A professor that lack the qualities that qualifies one as a professor. North is wholly relaying on South for there existence, Crude Oil proceeds are shared without North doing any work monthly, while Agro products are brought from farmers. If not for the government policies, why should I buy Northern stone rice for N24, 000 while Thailand Rice, N14 , 000 polished and stone free sells for lesser. North can't compete in a free and fair environment. 155 Likes 16 Shares |

So why are you all so afraid of breakup? You're talking about agriculture, is the proceeds from Agriculture shared to all Nigerians the way crude oil wealth is shared to all? One of them even claim that north is contributing human resources to Nigeria The man thinks that having 20 children when you can barely feed yourself and sending them out to beg on the streets is part of human resources. Illiteracy is terrible You guys can continue decieving yourselves, only a phone call from White House will end all these nonsense. Ambazonia is a free country today after all the cheating and injustice Cameroun meted out on them. Continue cheating on Igbos but very soon, just very soon we will leave this contraption for you. 107 Likes 18 Shares |

Yet 90 percent of top NNPC executives and employees are people from the region that produce no crude oil. Bloody savages. These pathetic Northern parasites should tell us why no Southerner has ever been appointed Minister of the federal capital territory Abuja, while NNPC created with southern resources to manage southern crude oil, drilled and produced in Southern Nigeria is filled with Fulani northerners.

Out of all the crap above there is only one truth that they spoke about: —“If the South-South is claiming the North is a parasite on the region, that region should ask itself what were the sources of Nigeria’s revenue before the discovery of oil at Oloibiri in the present Bayelsa State in 1965? What was the significance of oil before its discovery & exploration by the Shell Oil? What revenue did Nigeria use to fund oil exploration?” Chief Abu quipped.” Initially during the 1900s, the Southern Protectorate and Lagos colony were the one financing the Northern Protectorate. Also, in addition to that, the Northern protectorate got huge grant from the Imperial Treasury to complement what they generated locally. Some of the reason for the low productivity of the North was because they prohibited the trade in Spirits due to the fact that islamic religion forbade alcohol. Spirit was part of the major revenue generating commodity then. After the individual regions were created (Southern, Eastern, and Northern Region) , the table turned. Looking at the Federal gazette from 1957s up to the period of oil boom, the highest generator of revenue for the federal government are arranged below in terms of hierarchy. 1- Western Region 2- Northern Region 3- Eastern Region Most revenue running the Federal government Is from the Western and Northern Region. So when these guys (Northerners) are trying to justify the statement that the oil producing region shouldn’t be too pompous about them being the source of revenue to the country, they might be right to some extent. Some Region have helped before, the Oil producing region should help now this time around. However currently, the North is pulling Nigeria backward because they have contributed more to the socio-economic failure of Nigeria by their not-too productive huge population, Terrorist activities that resulted in Nigeria wasting lot of money on equipping soldiers and buying weapons, poverty metrics, high illiteracy rate, and etc. 28 Likes 2 Shares |

mrvitalis: Truly during the 1900s before the region became autonomous, if you are to merge the south together (Western and Eastern), we generated more revenue than the Northern Region. However when each region because autonomized, On average the Northern Region contributed more to the federal government than the Eastern Region. Now talking using the data of the 1954s until oil boom: Most of the revenue of the Federal government comes from Custom & Excise, Direct taxes, License & Internal Revenue, Mining, Rent on Government property, and etc. The Custom and Excise duties is the highest source of revenue for the government and infact it contributes averagely 60-70% of the revenue. The custom charge export duties on agricultural produce entering into world trade. The major produce that generates the highest revenue are : 1. Cocoa 2. Groundnut 3. Palm Kernel 4. Palm Oil Sometimes, palm oil and palm kernel alternates between the 3rd and 4th spot. Note: On average, the Western Region sells more Palm Kernel than the Eastern Region based on the Nigerian Government gazette from 1957-oil boom period. 6 Likes |

The day crude oil will be discovered in any Northern State, is the day they'll pull away from Nigeria. Professor Ango Abdullahi claims Agric sustain Nigeria. In this era, where fulani herdsmen massarce farmers without mercy & destroy their farmlands with their cattle. How can Agric sustain Nigeria in the midst of insecurity Senator Mamman Dan Musa also declared that; "the North is equally endowed as the South". So, why are the Almajiris fleeing to the South, since they can survive in the North? The relationship is parasitic, not symbiotic. 22 Likes 1 Share

LegendHero:Western region produced more palm kernel than the Eastern region ? Are u fucking serious Eastern region have been trading oil since the 1800 U think south west is the soul producer of cocoa ? No state in Nigeria produce more cocoa than cross river Let's not go into rubber Then let's not talk about coal ...Oga eastern region have always been the richest ...for u to say Western region produce more palm oil means u don't know what u are saying 47 Likes 6 Shares |
Re: Nigeria Must Exist On Basis Of Equality — Northern Leaders by LegendHero(m): 5:37am On Jun 06, 2020 |
mrvitalis: Bro I don’t talk without proof. Are you trying to contest my fact? Cocoa is produced solely by the western region and it contribute to like 93% of the total production in the 1950s. Palm Kernel is sold majorly by both the Western and Eastern region but the Western region generates more revenue to the central government than the eastern region on average. Hence Western Region generates more/equal revenue from Palm Kernel than/as Eastern Region. Eastern Region is the poorest among the three regions if you look at the revenue since each region became autonomous up till the 1963s upward before oil now became essential. About coal, coal did not generate that much revenue (Export duties) for the government because it was majorly used locally to build the rails and also for the energy need for west African colonies. The three mines at Enugu namely Obwetti, Hayes, and Iva was the source and the principal purchaser of the coal was the Nigerian railway and other such as Electricity corporation of Nigeria, Sierra Leone and Ghana. Coal was already irrelevant as a source of energy since 1955 because the government already began using Diesel engines. So what the bleep do you mean by coal generated more revenue that what was obtained from the agricultural commodities? 17 Likes 2 Shares |
