Nigeria Won’t Explore Oil In Bakassi Again – Buhari by Nobody: 1:07pm On May 05, 2016
PRESIDENT Muhammadu Buhari has
frozen exploitation of hydrocarbon
deposits in Bakassi peninsula till the joint
technical committee on the Green Tree
Agreement submits its report.
This is even as the Camerounian
President, Paul Biya, denied that his
country was ever a safe haven to
terrorist sect, Boko Haram.
Both leaders spoke at a joint press
conference to end Biya’s two-day
working visit to Nigeria.
Buhari told Biya that there was no cause
for Camerounians to lose sleep over the
Peninsula as the committee’s outcome
would put paid to the International
Court of Justice (ICJ) resolutions.
A technical committee, comprising
experts from both countries are
currently working to fine-tune some grey
areas, bodering on identity,
resettlement, compensation for loss of
territory, oil exploration, development of
Day Spring Island, socio-cultural
differences, fishing right, among other
issues before full implementation of
resolutions spelt out by the ICJ.
Buhari attributed the degradation of
Boko Haram sect to the assistance
rendered by Cameroun through the joint
border operations.
He said he would remain grateful to the
Lake Chad Basin Commission which
aided the Federal Government to over-
power the terrorists group.
Speaking on allegation that Cameroun
was a safe haven for Boko Haram, Biya
said it was nothing but media
propaganda, adding that he would not
have condescended to assist the
terrorists, when it would not be of
ideological or economic benefit to his
country.
“Yes, I have heard of this information, I
heard it in New York during conference
that Cameroun serves as base for Boko
Haram, but what can Cameroun benefit
from that? Is it the ideologies? Are we
going to benefit from finances? No, it
was just a bad press and Cameroun
remains focused and committed to the
fight against Boko Haram,” he declared.
Both leaders flayed the activities of the
sect while also applauding the military
for degrading the Boko Haram sect.In a
communique made available to the
press, both countries also welcomed
ongoing discussions on the fate of
arrested Boko H aram members arrested
in each of their countries and stressed
the need for a judicial framework that
will ensure their fair trial and if need be,
transferred to their countries in
accordance with international best
practices.

While humongous China is busy claiming lands everywhere, even the ones they have no right to, this old man is busy cementing the cowardly agreement signed by state traitors like OBJ.
They tell us buhari is a strong man and a general, but the only times where we see the so called general in action are in situations where strength and brute force were counter productive.
nitwits in power.
