Mr. Globe: why? don't you think a map that clearly marks out the oil field is will enable people decide which state it is in? |

Kenistry: Leaving does not necessary mean leaving everything including your hard earned money. Orient company should just sell the oil block back to Kogi state governor or another oil company. If that cannot happen, the next step is to follow mend footstep and destroy every single effort they put on the oil block meaning send it back to the way it was before they started drilling....a whole loss of money for their earlier effort but at least they would not feel cheated. |

Kenistry: I was gonna ask the same question about the developed well in I kogi; But why didn't they say anything before now ? Something in me tells me they are hiding something. That single well is not enough for them to carry out drilling and make kogi an oil producing state,while most blocks are located in Omanbala. So,this is what I think: ;This dummies think by orient drilling in Omanbala and one well from their side happened to be explored,the feds will automatically declare kogi an oil producing state,alongside Omanbala. I think I captured the picture,right here. If not,why would they erupt in anger GEJ declared Omanbala an oil producing state and claimed they are also a producing state(with one well) These were their dumb calculations; To ride on our surfering back to become an oil producing state,with a single well and still get the same amount of allocation....chaii,kogi peeepuluuu. Una get sense shaa! 1 Like |

From a source recently, i learnt that this oil/gas is about 88% in Anambra, 8% in Enugu and abt 4% in Kogi. Please get it straight: virtually every state in Nigeria has some oil/gas but not all wld become oil producing becos their deposits are not commercial enough! 1 Like |

These Kogi people are like flies humming & trying to perch on a Big man's food. Why can't they allow the Big man to eat the food he worked for in peace?. Kogi state have enough lazy men and that's why their leaders are now taking the advantage of their joblessness to brainwash them. I am sure 90% of them don't even know where the oil is. Who knows, maybe they have been promised that they will be employed in the oil company if they succeed. Hehehe, that's what u see in a state made up of coconut head youths. |

“It is pertinent to recall that Orient Petroleum Resources Plc was formed during the government of Dr Chinwoke Mbadinuju in 2001 and allocated oil fields domiciled in Anambra State.“ What was Kogi state doing all this while when the actual work and risk were been undertaken to prospect for oil in those oil wells. This same spirit of greed and abandoned property troubling Middle belters is really nauseating.After about 11 years since that time Kogi indigenes have now woken up from their slumber of ignorance and want to reap where they have not sown. it is only in Nigeria and in the north will such nonsense happen, lazy people.i now know the problem of Northen Nigeria is not oil but laziness driven by ignorance. ““ Orient Refinery for the Upteenth time should divest from any of the few oil wells in Kogi state and reinvest elsewhere inside the Eastern states of Enugu , Abia , Anambra , Imo and Ebonyi a stitch in time will save 9 lives , 9 properties , 9 investments , 9 years . The Major Enemies of igbos are not even in Nigeria but in Europe (Birtain and Russia)and North Africa (Egypt and Arabs) “Kogi state has been sleeping for about 11 years and have woken up from their slumber to be a stake holder in a refinery that has been a product or risk and hardwork The Orient Refinery should forthwith divest from Ibaji and Odeke and strictly invest in Igbo land |

Re: Obi : Anambra Owns Disputed Oil Field by vascey(m): 12:54pm On Sep 14, 2012 |
I think a lot of people are missing the point. My understanding of this issue is summarized as follows: 1. Oil in Nigeria is exclusively owned federal government. 2. The FGN granted Oil Prospecting Licenses to Orient Oil Plc. Of the available 916 licences in the Anambra basin, they were granted 915. The Anambra basin is not located in Anambra alone but also in Enugu and Kogi as well. 3. When they drill wells and produce oil, the revenue will go exclusively to the federal government in line with the revenue sharing formula stipulated by the law for oil discovered on the inland basin. 4. It does not matter where Orient drills their oil as long as they pay the statutory taxes and royalty to the Federal Government. 5. If you want dividend of the said oil revenue, 2 things you can do- a. Invest in Orient Plc and be paid dividend as a shareholder. b. Ensure that the government recognizes your state as an oil producing state so that you can get your share of the revenue. How do you ensure you are an oil producing state? Ensure that oil wells prospected in your state can produce in commercial quantities large enough for the government to recognize your state as an oil producing state. Then you will begin to eat from the cake of the oil producing states. 6. I am from Anambra and I have mixed feelings about oil discovery in my state. Politics in Anambra has always been a do or die affair.I wonder and fear at the level to which that their political gangstarism will escalate now that oil is in the mix. It is only in Africa that natural resources are a means to oppression and not a blessing. This is only day one and the swords have been drawn. May God help us. |

In Nigeria its often been like more oil, more trouble . Anambra state should work on how money ( mainly taxes ) earned from the crude oil will be used to build sustainable infrastructure , improve education , health and other necessary social projects . Otherwise , the state will end up seeing revenues from oil hijacked by few elites . With oil money and annual budgets of over $7 billion combined , Rivers, Bayelsa and Akwa Ibom states are yet to show any difference in the way Nigeria manages or invests its oil money . Anambra should show us that crude oil discovery is not a curse in Nigeria . Obi's duty is historically cut out for him. Abia has failed to show a difference ; will Anambra be different ? Time shall tell .... |
