I never asked although I was on the thread. Ymodulus may God richly bless you. Your hands would never go dry amen.

For how long will Nigerians suffer? I see no changes. It is going from bad to worse. Youth of today let us learn from history. What does it take to run a government? It is not revenue or allocation but ideas. People are lamenting daily .

The best things in life are free to us because we are just under the upper hand.

DDeliverer:

This is Bad.

We are losing this much?no wonder the economy is very shaky. These Militants right?i have a suggestion. Let the States take the punishment for this, and as mean as this may Sound, i am sure it will work.

The Governors are the Chief Security Officers of their States, they know these guys causing this problems. If this much money is getting lost, Monies allocated to this States should be reduced too from the Federal Coffers.

If this is done, this Governors will help flush out all these Militants.

Laughing so hard. NNPC would turn to water board soon. Who generates the money to federal coffers. Give these people the basic needs of life. Is it too much to ask for. These money is not utilize at the grassroot

And the northerners want crude to flow. Nnpc would turn to water board soon. Rivers strike team already blowing up trunks lines. This buhari nor get sense at all.

True democrat

Being Shell workers, they should have been enlightened enough to know that it's a harmless mammal that we hardly see in Nigeria and shouldn't be killed. Why kill it?

A shell worker wouldn't do that for no reason. They respect host community wildlife so much. It is against companies ethics. It might be villagers

Hmm Omo -irabor stay out of politics. Edo and delta politics is usually a do or die affair thing. You've made name for yourself as human right activist. Just be careful not to put Madam (iron lady) in sorrow and weaping.

Nigeria is an improbable country herded together by the British colonialists. It is a union of convenience conceived by the British with the sole aim of plundering the vast natural resources of their occupied territory. Their overriding interest was commerce little wonder, they find it difficult to bequeath an enduring political culture let alone foster unity among her diverse subject.
The result was the when they finally gave independence to Nigeria, they left a deeply fractious nation whose unity is always tested whenever there is religious, ethnic or political rivalry.

Just remembered we have shares there jeez!!!

Bolustic:
Op I guess you forgot to add this

11. One of the former governor, James Ibori is currently serving a jail term in the UK.

12. It's one of the states with the highest allocation in Nigeria yet has little to show for it.

What are you trying to point out? Is Ibori the only corrupt politician? Every deltan would acknowledge the fact that Ibori was a detribalized and the most efficient governor delta have had. When we sneeze Nigeria catch cold.

My home my pride.

kunle75:
You are a small mind...........which terrain are you talking about that such huge amount as allocated in the past could not have catered for?

Stop this nonsense jorr

Kunle please stop this trash. Fifty years of milking us. We be cows? Am done can you name Federal government projects in those communities.

mrvitalis:
I am not a Niger Deltan.. . I have had that enough
Bayelsa recives far more than Jigawa... Yet no airport and no access roads... The terrian may increase cost by max 100%. .. And bayelsa receive more than 300% what Jigawa did for the last 16 years
So no excuse bro

But they just earned money to run the economy. What does Jigawa contribute to the national treasury? Most of the northern state contribute less than 3billion annually but yet receive 60 billion. It is not by force to like us. Moreover I thought I would see contribution of milk crude from herdsmen but yet zero contribution. Understand the fact that we would progress even without oil. We are blessed in all ramifications.

jmichlins:
this mentality is why you will keep dreaming of becoming dubia but end up been bangladesh. Charge up to your leaders

The Dubai you are talking about families own oil well and not oligarchs and political friends. We want resource control

Stupid words from a leader whom I respect. If your relatives have ever been a victim you would understand.

mrvitalis:
13% of that money went to the Niger Delta alone
And they got atleast another 20% of that money.. In terms of allocation, NDDC and ministry of Niger Delta
That's 33% of the total oil revenue since 1999 to 2016 that's will give u over 15 trillion naira for the Niger Delta... Given to the leaders of the region and yet nothing or little to show for it
Instead of the so called intelligent youths who school in eastern Europe to ask there youths for accountability the are looking for who to blame
Lagos State generate more than 800bn a year... Yet how much do they receive?

After I visited Jigawa year back... My eyes opened... If lamido could achieve those things then. .. we southerns have no one to blame but our leaders

you are not a Niger deltan stop been an interloper. Remember the terrain is different. Jigawa u mentioned is among the parasitic state.

The world is like a room. It can be safe and equal space for everyone. We just need to dismantle the walls of privilege and oppression. As it stands, the rule of law is stylishly abandoned and hastily discarded to pronounce the guilt of perceived enemy of the government. The Judge is now in full boisterous caprice and which is disdainful in all ramifications. It appears there is no more tempering restraints anymore.
The judge is redefining all known configurations of our national grapple. There is no grand articulation of unifying her constituents. Where is the Federal character Commission? The commission suddenly died and some ardent supporters would say as long as they are Nigerian. Let me say this nepotism breeds oppression. Before now we were given fair weather love and resounding promises still echoeing in the hearts of many.
Our father land is swamped in throes of anxiety and depeened in relentless uncertainty. To her citizens, " theirs is to obey without thought and yield without reflection". Every critic must be suppressed, blackmailed into submission. The critic is crudely hurried into detention without following due process.
The judge preached the infallible gospel of change but he do not practice what he preaches. Her foot soldiers seize the cue of chest beating righteousness and perfection about him. Anyone not dancing to his tune is treated with primitive contempt and dismissive glare. We might wake up one day without freedom. The judiciary should play her role very well being the last hope of the common man.

Sweetlemon:
You just perfectly described your people

Never be afraid to hear the truth.

Ibori the game changer

Northerners never blame their fellow brother no matter the crime. How does this issue concern America and Isreal? I thought I would be see Buhari's picture and Nigerian flag been robbed on the floor. Northerners always feel their enemies are external not knowing they are the cause of their own woes.

Gen some here only know how to curse the Igbos but I must tell you Igbos are good. if it were to be northerners or westerners that went through civil war, I tell you the impact would still be present. southerners need to unite irrespective of tribe or religion because of our future generation. Each time I come to politics section, I leave with anger. religion tribe have no phenotype neither genotype. Be u Hausa, Igbo, Yoruba we all have red blood flowing through our veins.

meforyou1:
FFK can rot in prison. They should release Nenadi Usman immediately

tribal bigot

meforyou1:
Nigeria has spoilt badly. When I was in futminna, I stayed off campus. As a student, u can go from school to your house and back at any time of the night, 1am, 2am, 3am,4am anytime, without fear.

That was then.

The solution to our problems is known to everyone but some group people won't let the country move forward. They only think of what they benefit from this unholy marriage.

fulanimafia:
Lol I'm done with you. Just wake up .

done with you too nomad.

fulanimafia:
And what economic benefit are YOU and your fellow lazy ogogoro gulping, 'deve'-collecting creekheads to Nigeria ? Do you know how useless you need to be to always hide behind the oil God blessed Nigeria with (which you put ZERO effort in producing or developing)?

Bow your unproductive and criminal heads in shame. Your ilk are useless to Nigeria, even your Governor Dickson testified to this fact. Lazy criminals.

mind you my state is number 3 in terms of IGR. who is now lazy? nomadic herdsman
