Care to explain? How did the SS/SE betray the SW after 2011?

Your betrayal is your GEJ called us rascals. Highest level of desperation of the highest office in the land.

He did not have a single project to point to in SW that he did.

That is betrayal.

Tinubu the nightmare of y1bos, just like Awolowo and Adekunle.

Y1bos and AGIP. Na wa ooo.

Just less than a month into opposition, they are already tired and looking for ways to practise their floating politics again.

Lmaooookk

Sunnybobo3:
And what did SE and SS get from OBJ after voting him in 1999 that made them vote massively for him again in 2003?

What is my own with that? If they could not teach him a lesson when he was seeking their votes again for 2nd term. how is that the cup of tea of anybody from SW? If you felt he did not perform or deliver on his promise to you, you should have voted him out.


You are meant to use your votes to teach politicians that failed on their promises lesson and we simply use our power to teach GEJ a lesson, so that it will serve as a deterrent to others.

Tinubu giving y1bos nightmares since 1999 AD, just like Awolowo and Adekunle.

We have told them they can never do opposition and flourish. They are AGIP Any Govt In Power people.

That are looking for a way to jump inside the already cruising Buhari's Boeing 747 jumbo jet.

CHESSBOARD:
They have suddenly realize as even in Majority party, they are the real Minority in this country now, always back stabbing the other southerners, please SW should shut up already, "they got served"
The vise President is a mere commissioner, what again do they have....

A mere commissioner bearing a VP that an Ibo man is not, makes your comment reek of bigotry laden with the pain of the defeat of Mr. Jonah, your ruling by proxy president.

Thought you were the pillar of his dumb govt and why were you not able to save him.

What a worthless pillar you must be then!!!!

CHESSBOARD:
The real betrayal is SW planting Tambewal in the expense of your own sister to haunt GEJ.... Now SW did it again and GEJ lost but I tell you the revenge is sweetest

What is the sweetest?

The defeat of GEJ and his axis of evil or the making of another Yoruba man the Senate President?

EUROBOMBER:
In what way?

Really

I beg figure it out.

What exactly did he do in SW and all of a sudden he paid over 20visits to the same SW when he postponed the election for 6weeks, soliciting for our votes.


A place he never visited more than 5 times in 4years and he does not have any project to commission in 6years.

Sunnybobo3:
South East and South South voted massively for OObasanjo a Yoruba man. When did they betray the South West?

SW voted massively for GEJ in 2011 and what benefit was it for SW?

Nothing.

That is betrayal.

EUROBOMBER:
When did SE/SS betray Yoruba?

After 2011 election.

All the commentators on that Facebook are all from South East out of jealousy and hatred that they lost out

Whether you like it or not, he is your VP and when he comes to your state, you will roll out the red carpet.

That is a president extraordinaire.

I noticed that too yesterday on Channels.

Quite funny.

When sane people were telling the id1ot to soft pedal on some of his stupid policies, he thought he was the wisest.

why spend money on stupid opon imo, if not to embezzle public fund. He could have used the same fund to buy text books and construction of 3 world class libraries in the senatorial districts.

Why make all the school uniform the same with one contractor, if not for fraud. Were children not wearing school uniform before he came?

Why embark on so much capital projects at the same time, no matter how laudable they are?

He appointed an arrogant id1ot and spoilt brat as Commissioner for Finance that ruined the economy of the state.

Now is the time for the opposition in the state to wake up and cease the opportunity and start building momentum.

My prayer point for all is, may one never have a good beginning and bad ending like Aregbe.

otil1:
Arrant nonsense!

When SW decided to always betray the South which it is part of, always running to align with the North just to spite Igbos, what treatment does it expect.

This is just d beginning. The Arewas never cease to tell you to your faces that they conquered you, that you are conquered people. The Buhari presidency will clearly show the place of SW in Nigeria politics. More loading...

When SE and SS or upper zambezi or what are you calling yourselves, connived to betray SW, it was right and when the same SW paid you back in your coin, it is wrong.

Hypocrisy!!!!!!!



Get over the loss.

Tinubu is definitely giving nyamiris and people from gully eroded land unimaginable nightmares.

The same way Awolowo and Adekunle were their Ojujus.

Always scare Igbos with Tinubu and imagine the buccal diarrhoea you will get from.them.

Tinubu please give being the nightmares of born losers our dear y1bo slaves.

We remember our martyrs who chose to die rather than usain bolting

We remember our martyrs who chose to go to the world beyond, rather than putting the lives of 3million of us on the line.

We remember our martyrs who chose to fight doggedly with pen wisdom and radio kudirat, rather than a rash decision of a rush of blood to the brain by declaring an unprepared war.

Rest in peace.

Change is here indeed.

REVENUE & INDUSTRY DATA

< Back to all posts Oil Producing States April 15, 2013
Atlantic coast of Nigeria where the Niger River divides into numerous tributaries and along the coast from Benin River on the west to the Imo River on the east lies the oil rich Niger Delta.
Home to some 30 million people from the Ijaws, Edos, Urhobos, Itsekiris, Yorubas, Igbos, Efiks and Kalabaris, the Niger delta occupies a land mass area that makes up 7.5% of the country. The traditional oil producing Niger delta states are Edo, Delta, Bayelsa, Rivers, Akwa-Ibom and Cross Rivers. Abia, Ondo, Imo were later additions. Anambra State was recently added in 2012 by the president to make up the ten oil-producing states. The 80-20 States
Akwa-Ibom is the highest oil producing state with eight local government areas in the state hosting production. Apart from crude oil, Akwa-Ibom has several natural mineral resources such as clay, limestone, salt, coal, natural gas, giver nitrate and glass sand.
Rivers state is famous for its oil production, with vast reserves of crude oil and natural gas. It is also the chief oil-refining city in the country with two refineries in Port Harcourt. For several years Rivers State produced more oil than all the other states before being displaced from its position by Akwa-Ibom. The main occupation of its people is farming and fishing, with the state government currently running a robust agricultural policy, aimed at improving food production.
Delta state ranks third to rivers and produces a major fraction of Nigeria’s crude oil. The nation’s second refinery as well as petrochemical plant is located in the state, at Warri. The people of the state are mostly farmers, with agricultural produce as; yam, fish crab, cocoa yam, rubber.
Bayelsa state is home to Oloibiri in Ogbia local government were crude oil was first discovered in commercial quantities back in 1956. The first oil well was active for 20 years before it was shut down. The major occupation of Bayelsa people are fishing and farming. Nigeria’s crude oil types were named after the regions that produce them- Bonny Light is named after the prolific city of Bonny in Rivers state, home to the liquefied natural gas (LNG) on Bonny Island. Qua Iboe is from Akwa Ibom, Brass comes from Bayelsa, Forcados and Escravos from Delta. Revenue Contributions, Derivations and Community Funds
There is a derivation principle governing the allocation of revenue to oil producing states. The 13% derivation was enshrined in the 1999 constitution, and came into effect in year 2000. After the sale of Nigeria’s crude oil, 13% is removed from the gross oil revenue exclusively for oil producing states. To understand how oil revenue is shared. Each oil producing state gets a share out of 13% revenue, calculated based on the production of oil from the individual states. For instance, Akwa-Ibom earns the largest revenue from derivation royalties because it is the highest oil producer out of the oil producing states. These sums are paid into the state accounts.
If the presently debated Petroleum Industry Bill is passed into law, with the Host Community Fund allocation, communities described “petroleum producing areas” are set get a new 10% funding for socio-economic and infrastructure development. Dearth in the Midst of Plenty
In human development terms, the delta fares somewhat better –poverty rates according to the NBS are said to be lower by half, compared to the rest of Nigeria. Contrary to these findings, over 75% of the people of the delta rate themselves as poor. Despite the oil riches of the delta region, the glaring paradox is that it remains grossly underdeveloped in terms of formal economy, infrastructure and public services. Militancy is just one of the symptoms of the deeply rooted problems in the delta regions. Environmental damage brought about by decades of exploitation; continuous gas flaring, oil spills, illegal refining, oil theft and lenient laws continue to worsen the situation. Multinational oil companies have contributed in part to these hazards. These companies have had to pay compensations to calm volatile reactions from communities and/or penalties albeit at lower rates than international standards.
The agitations of different stakeholders in the Niger Delta have posed a number of pertinent questions around good governance and benefit capture for the oil producing communities. For instance, some communities have claimed that in the past 13 years, their governors have misappropriated over N7.282 trillion received as derivation funds, calling on NEITI and other agencies to intervene in this matter.
Over the years, the Nigerian government has increased financial allocations to the area and established all sorts of agencies to oversee socio-economic development within the Niger Delta. Some of the agencies have included the likes of OMPADEC (1996) now defunct, NDDC(2000) and Ministry of Niger Delta Affairs (2008) South-South State Governors from oil producing states have also jointly ventured into establishing an organisation- the BRACED Commission to promote regional, economic co-operation and integration. To what extent though have these agencies and financial allocations addressed the problems of the delta? What value creation have they accomplished? What can be done to strengthen good governance and transparency around natural resources countrywide?

what exactly is your point

this will interest you https://www.nairaland.com/2048991/senate-rejects-bill-recognise-anambra/6#28967972

You want us to spend another scarce fund on national jamboree again.

What was the outcome of the one organized by the Drunken Master?

He can never try it, even if the "winch" in his house are pushing him.
