The Bottom Line is that Majority of the oil and Gas producing wells is out of reach for lagos government. We as Nigerians will share the profit from Kano to Calabar. This is pure Karma unless you fight for resource control 2 Likes |

davodyguy: That allocation is mere political, since there is a law to counter that. Any allocation derivation collected by Lagos can be reversed. |

davodyguy: You read with no understanding. You and your kin in collaboration with nothern states, in trying to cheat the niger delta refused to grant them 13% beyond 200m water depth. The first oil field you've discovered is at 200m water dept. Subsequent discoveries will go deeper. The money from those fields is going to the federal government to be shared among the fg and states including the ND. If a big discovery is made, no other state will support you in changing the rules because they benefit. 2 Likes |

Chiznonso: Wrong. I think the law was made just to favor akwaibom. It it's only recently they started having land fields. If 13% of what akwaibom produces goes back to them, they will get two to three times their allocation |

solacesolutions: Do you know what it takes to change laws? Akwa ibom had to Threaten the country to able to change the law. I am afraid you won't be able to get the quorum to change this one. You don't expect the Hausas and igbos to support you. You will shorten their allocation. The same way you didn't support niger delta for resource control. 1 Like |

kaen1317: The man is searching for oil in the North just for the interest of the North and nothing more. I can imagine that the map of Nigeria is the other way round, and the oil is domiciled in the North, by now the abokis would have chased everyone away from the North or even divide this country so they could own the oil alone. |

Adedamola.....yu hv a point but yu just missed it. I work for a multinational oil service company in d drilling n formation evaluation arm. I and I repeat I was the second lead guy on d job of Aje 5 and 3 wells respectively. The rig we drilled with was Saipem old semi submersible rig. The distance from the rig or well from lagos land is like 2km, convert it to nautical mileage. Approximately 10 minutes to ikeja caverton heliport. The point am making is dis, the field or well is not deep continental shelf but just near shore and depth of 15ft to sea bed. This oil belongs to Lagos and will be duly credited by RMAFC. Mind yu am from Niger delta. No hard feelings. 3 Likes 1 Share |

davodyguy: This is the most intelligent comment so far about this topic. Lagos has the political capacity to make it possible to benefit from the oil, the rest is history. But when this kind of move benefits the Niger delta states also, will their leaders use the money to develop their land the way it is been done in Lagos? Only time will tell. By the way nice write up @Damola, you inspire me. This is the kind of stuff we should be doing on Nairaland, and not pictures of naked actresses everywhere. |

If it comes down to it. And the SW unites with SS for fight for offshore oil control. The SE should simply sit on the fence and let them slugg it out with the North. Because with the North numerical advantage at the NASSS, there is no way the SS/SW are winning that battle even if SE supports them. We( SE) have bigger fish to fry. All the oil in the Igbo speaking parts of Rivers/ Delta and in Imo/ Abia and Anambra basin are onshore oil wells. Our fight is should be for 100% control of land and. land resources by indigenes, which Will translate to the abrogation of the land use act, and not Offshore battle. We shouldn't stand on SW/SS way on their impending offshore battle with the FG and the North, but we shouldn't equally meddle into offshore fight, it's simply not our fight. We sit this one out, and conserve our strength for more strategic fights. This is just my opinion, which I believe I'm entitled to, and does not represent the stand of Ndiigbo on this issue. I hope our reps and senators will be wise enough to analyze this issue strategically. |

kaen1317:wow then the situation is now very simple because if Buhari eventually discover oil in the North , it will take the FG just 2hours to change the written laws. let's not forget that the one who made the pencil also made the eraser. so let's pray along with Buhari to quickly discover the oil, I also guess that Nigeria might be divided, cos obviously the only thing binding us all in Nigeria is oil. But what a pity. |

[quote author=seunmsg post=49488338]The opinion of the author is so on point. Personally, I don't think any state should benefit from oil exploration in the deep water. The exploration is so far away from onshore and any claim of environmental impact is just a political claim and not real. Resources found in the deep waters should belong to the federation for the benefit of all parts of the country. [/quote D resources they ur house or your land abi.kontinue] |

OBAGADAFFI:If the allocation is political,dont u think dat d same politics can be used to prevent d reversal? My opinion is if politics was used to allocate,it can still be used to prevent reversal. Forget about Tinubu,Fashola,Ambode or d ruling party at d centre,our politicians can make any deal for their own interest. Its jst a matter of striking deal wit percentage and rest will be history. 1 Like |
