Kollyman: The question I keep asking pple like you is, was it the people of Lagos and Abuja FG gave money to that made these places what they are today with Oil money or FG carried out massive devt and put policies in place! How many times have we shouted for pple like you to hear that ND don't need peanuts given to few people from resources God in his wisdom blessed our region with? Let FG on their own focus on ND developmentally. U can not give few pple 1kobo from 1000k from resources u got from their place and said go ask ur pple. The money FG shares is for individuals carrying out development for all is another thing. This will only happen in the ND because I know,the west won't take it talkless the North. Resource control and True Federalism was stopped in Nig immediately oil was found, have you ask urself why? God Bless Nig. 5 Likes 1 Share |

Kollyman: Sir with all due respect I beg to disagree with you. It was the government of Nigeria that took advantage ignorance of the Niger delta people by setting up a destructive system of bribe the elders to ensure calmness ( I used calm carefully here and not peace) is obtained in the region. Since oil was found this destructive practice has been put in place, to correct something that has been existing since 1956 is not so easy, even this present anti- corruption president we have applied similar strategies when he was there during his time as Head of State, hence no government has ever thought of putting in place deliberate strategy to develop the area. Its a case of the proverbial iroko tree that was not pruned down at the infancy but has now grown big and demands sacrifice. 2 Likes |

Honestly the way these people are being treated is not good. This s pure wickedness to just abandoned town and people of such significant just like that is so bad. wonder if oil is a curse or a blessing sometime. When I see things like this I feel like shedding tears because I can feel what the people in that land would be feeling right now, its so sad. Ken Saro raised the alarm then but was hanged and was given a disgraceful death but so unfortunately the militants knows who are behind this horror and nasty negligence due to their stroghold on Nigeria oil but rather they face South West and started attacking them, well I wishh you guys good luck nothing else to say. |

seunoni34: 6 out of how many years of independent of mostly northern rule. you people talk as if Nigeria problems started within Jonathan's era. it will take many years to dismantle what these northerners has positioned in their own favour. Obasnjo removed some while the fear of Jonathan dealing them the final blow resulted in his election loss. Buhari now is carrying out repairs to maintain the status quo. The brown toothed man from the west failed to understand this. |

BLOOD OIL by P.E.L.E. (Youpele Michael) Rap song originally written in 2012 on Kanye West's "Diamonds From Sierra Leone" instrumental. {Chorus} Diamonds are forever, Put the oil in the sky and see if it rains Diamonds are forever Bring your bucket outside and feel our pains (fetch it) Forever ever? Forever ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever?...... {Verse 1} Now take your toes to Oloibiri and see it first See the blessing as real as the curse It is so damn real nothing to rehearse Something like a plague, like AIDS in my purse Leprosy, cancer, doc I need a cure Can't drink of this cup, the water is far from pure The fish in the river pray to fly like birds If you sail on this river it's like you sail dirts Yeah, I have to speak my thoughts So loud in my head I had to turn the volume off I'm breaking out this prison Scofield is small Oloibiri ain't Smallville but enough is enough That's the first place oil ever came forth That's the first place oil money came from Never known for a second just what they take off Nothing to write about poorly abandon {Chorus} Diamonds are forever, Put the oil in the sky and see if it rains Diamonds are forever Bring your bucket outside and feel our pains (fetch it) Forever ever? Forever ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever? Ever, ever?...... {Verse 2} I don't know too many things to rap about I don't have too many things to brag about We got blood in the oil that's what I'm about "Blood oil" that's the title of Oil from the south Groundnut pyramids was by ownership No one from the south even own a ship When the cake was shared we don't own a shit When the crumb is through we go for our bits When it comes to cocoa same was done, We're one, but not after the 1960's Ask those in 50's, 60 and above, they'll tell you everything was good before their gimmicks So here's my remix Good if you listen to every word I spit I spit in my lyrics Before your critics Talk is cheap I rather speak my mind than play your mimics You're welcome to earth, I don't go to Mars If I am Labgaja I rather die in my mask We pray to get better, we're getting worse Even a day old is corrupt in his goddamn heart And it goddamn hurt, the future is blind The metaphor, is something we go really mental for After the war, Biafra did loss, But Isaac Boro fight is what I'm for After oil was discovered cake cutting change No more ownership, I guess they're derange It's now by mass and maths of population Hell with what they thought and the whole of this nation Their policy is depredation, It's our time with the resource, but on the bench on probation What is strength with the feeling of hibernation? They've ruled on us like Mubarak to his nation After much struggles and militancy We got our Obama on this Democracy Resource control that's what we're wanting Fuel subsidy? Oh! That's just nothing As long as it betters our people And put us on top like pigeon and eagle You need my sequel, Boko Haram is really evil You can't islamize this country are y'all sickos Source: https://www.wattpad.com/267460915-fantasy-seventy-sevens-26-blood-oil 1 Like

Kollyman: Lame and shallow. same for those who liked it. So was it about the leadership of Abuja area, Lagos area? . Was it about their leaders That we have a refinery in Kaduna with pipeline across? was about the leaders of our region? That your state today can't pay salaries because of the same oil issue is because of our leaders? Please just stop. When people lie a lot, they then see it as truth. Plz just stop. If the leaders are the issues. I CHALLENGE THE FG TO HANDS OFF THE OIL FROM THE REGION TOTALLY AND LEAVE US WITH OUR LEADERS THAT YOU ALL ALWAYS REFERRED TO AND SEE IF THINGS WON'T CHANGE.
