North Supplied Most of Nigeria Electricity For Many Years Without Much Sabotage by Nobody: 8:16pm On May 06, 2016 |
We must not 4get the whole Nigeria once depend on Northern Nigeria for most of its electricity. Before the installation of gas turbines in Nigeria, the whole country from south to north depend on Kanji dam for electricity for so many years. We didnt hear of sabotage of d dam. Even today, abt 30% of Nigeria power is still from d North. Should Mabila dam in Taraba state be completed say in 2020 with 3000MW, d contribution of nothern Nigeria to power supply will be atleast 50%. Kanji Dam was build in 1968 and it was supplying 800MW. The oldest Gas turbine build in Nigeria was Ughelli power station build in 1966 to supply 72MW. Before the year 2000, more than 50% of power source in Nigeria were from the North. Mainly from kanji and Jebba. During this period there were various gas plants which were not fully operational. Yes i know we niger deltan want resource control. But what dis millitants are doing is crime and not emancipation. They are evil and are against the progress of Niger delta people. Niger Delta Avengers does not represent the interest of Niger Delta. The shallowness of Niger Delta Avengers is becoming alarming. The truth is dat the average Niger Deltan in d street dont neccessary support sabotage. And this so called millitant does not have the interest of Niger Delta people at heart. They are just greedy bunch of selfish people who does not care about the overall interest of Niger Delta people. South South states are loosing billions to lagos because of all this stupidity of a selected few among my people. Almost all d big oil companies have thier headquarter in lagos. Thus our states is losing cooperate tax to lagos. Many ships dont agree to use warri and portharcourt sea port because of these saboteurs. This is because of high level kidnapping and sea pirates in d region. Most of the ships comming to Nigeria find it difficult to get insurance cover once thier destination is warri or portharcourt. This have futher slow the economy of Niger delta. it is time our elders, traditional rulers come out bold to condemn d actions of this few saboteurs. i see no wisdom in sabotage and destruction of our ecosystem. We are being myopic, in another 40years when d oil production bcome very low, our people will suffer starvation. We are busy spilling oil on our land by ourselves. what a self destruction!!! Pidggin: I am from south south. And i am complaining. I agree that if most of the oil was located in d North, South West or South East there will be no Nigeria by now. I know dat for a fact. But God in his wisdom decided to place d oil among the minority south south. If not the top three tribe Hausa, Igbo and Yoruba would have trample on us mercillessly . Yes I know dat. But what we have today is d reality. Most of The oil and gas is in our land. For about 50 years now, our oil have been feeding Nigeria. But we must know that Oil is not limitless. it is a non renewable resources. Which means it will finish. The question is how will our children survive in Niger Delta when d oil finish? Which land will they depend on? Is it d land further polluted by dis greedy idiots called millitants? It is time we in d Niger Delta start making strategic agitation. it is time we agitate for a trust fund for the future of Niger Delta. Niger Delta After Oil Trust Fund. This are d kind of tins we can protest peacefully for. Not blowing pipelines and further increasing our woes. Agitating for pipeline contrats, kick back will not do good to our people. Our agitation must be strategic and development oriented. Not myopic agitation just to fill d picket of criminal few today. That will not help my people in anyway. 40 Likes 4 Shares |

The self-degradation of their environment is not even in their thoughts. The loss of fertile farmland do not bother them, they mess up the capacity of their land to produce and will be forced to buy food grown in other parts of the Country. If that system works for them, who am I to think otherwise! 12 Likes 1 Share |

The avengers are doing a good job. Their demands are simple and highly reasonable, that the federal government call a sovereign national conference bordering on this country's unity. Is anybody afraid of that? How the avengers are going about having their demands met is also quite resonable because the federal government judging from historical antecedents would only respond to acts of violence. It is theonly effective way to get the government to situp and listen. Your comment about Kainji dam is funny. Proceeds from the sales of crude oil drilled from Niger Delta lands has been funding the country for over fourty years. Isn't that something that beat your Kainji Dam argument? Aren't we tired of living like this in this country? The injustice and hypocrisy that is fuelling the corruption and stagnation that has left the country for has to end. Whatever means it takes to achieve justice and fairness in Nigeria is highly welcome. That includes bombing pipelines and oil installations. 16 Likes 1 Share |

tuale4u: Firstly, you are not a Niger deltan so forget that "we the niger" delta bullshit. It gives you up hollow. Secondly, that those power station were sited there, should tell you how manipulative those you are holding brief for are. The same people who insisted that we must lay gas pipeline from the point of gas deposit, hundreds of kilometers away, to power up gas powered plant whereas industries are sited with nearness to resources. You think those power station couldn't have been sited elsewhere? Both water and gradient is found in other places too. Just like taking crude oil from ND to kaduna to refine. You think that would have happened if the oil was the other way round? Abeg go Sidon jare Besides those structures were developed, maintained and sustained from the petrol-dollar. Okay we never heard of sabotage of Kanji dam. But we know of Boko haram. Who will go for Kanji dam, when you have boko haram. Look, it will be a tragedy if we wish away this boko haram issue. It will be a great evil if a REAL postmortem on boko haram is not done and documented by PRIVATE - NON POLITICAL group. It's absolutely weak to say the area is losing billions to Lagos. It shows your grasp of things and that underscores my point that you are not a niger deltan. Lagos did not start graining the billions instead of the ND region today. Lagos have been strategically situated. The issues with the ports is high level politics because your so called negative reasons for the loss of billions in Port revenue have not stopped the country from earning billions of dollars from oil exploration in the region. Okay the kidnapping is stopping the ports but it's not stopping oil exploration. I don't want to go on..... Just pass 17 Likes 1 Share |
